Smile
Unraveling the Enigma: Deciphering Ultraspank's 'Smile' Meaning
Lyrics
I don't know enough about you
I lack sufficient knowledge about you
To leave myself wide open and I don't know when I've had enough
I am hesitant to make myself vulnerable, unsure when I've reached a limit
To remove myself from you
I struggle to distance myself from you
Try not to think it out
Attempting not to overanalyze
Try not to act it out
Trying not to express it outwardly
Cut it, shut it, keep it down and never let it leave the ground
Suppressing, controlling, keeping emotions in check, preventing them from escalating
I gather up what you'll give
I gather what you offer
But it never helps fill the sieve
However, it doesn't effectively fill the gaps
Because I don't know enough about you
Reiterating a lack of understanding about you
To leave myself wide open
Reluctance to expose oneself
Try not to think it out
Reiterating an attempt to avoid overthinking
Try not to act it out
Reiterating an attempt to avoid acting impulsively
Cut it, shut it, keep it down and never let it leave the ground
Continuing to suppress emotions and prevent them from escalating
It doesn't matter anyway
Expressing a sense of indifference
When it's all said and gone away
When everything is said and done
Accumulate experience
Accumulating life experiences
Accumulate experience
Repeating the idea of accumulating experiences
Time goes by and within its smile
Time passes, and in its passage, there is a semblance of happiness
You think you'd find a way
Belief in finding a solution
But it seems so hard to pick apart
But finding it challenging to dissect
It is so far away
It remains distant and elusive
It's only what it means and never what it seems
Emphasizing the importance of interpretation over appearance
It's only in the eyes of me
It's subjective and dependent on personal perspective
It circles to the end
It repeats and disrupts
It lives to upend
Its purpose is to overturn or challenge
That's only when it starts again
Restarting the cycle of experience
Time goes by and within its smile
Reiteration of the passage of time and the pursuit of happiness
You think you'd find a way
Reiterating the belief in finding a solution
But it seems so hard to pick apart
Continuing to struggle in understanding
It is so far away
The solution remains distant and elusive
Time goes by
The passage of time
It seems to hide
Seems to be concealed or elusive
It is so far away and all the while
It remains distant, yet all the while
It beams the smile
The elusive happiness or contentment
It is so far away
It stays distant and elusive
It is so far
Reiteration of the idea that the solution is distant
