Unveiling Depths: Waxahatchee's No Question Chronicles Intense Relationships
Lyrics
My objective was blind
Feeling like my purpose or goal was unclear or misguided.
You were always looking for a fight
You were constantly ready for conflict or argument.
An invisible race
Engaged in a competition or struggle that's not easily visible.
We'll be in it til one of us dies
We'll remain in this situation or conflict until one of us passes away.
You went back in time today
You revisited the past, expecting me to do the same.
Expecting me to do the same
Anticipating me to repeat actions or patterns from the past.
And I can't get away
I feel trapped or unable to escape.
I can't get away
Emphasizing the feeling of being unable to break free from a situation.
I can't get away
Reinforcing the sense of being stuck or unable to escape.
When you viciously crave captivation
Your intense desire for attention or fascination drives your actions.
You set the tone
You establish the mood or atmosphere of our interactions.
You will mimic a martyr
You imitate a victim or someone suffering silently and without attention.
Quiet, and left alone
You prefer to be quiet and left to yourself.
Behind sycophantic amends
Using insincere apologies or flattering gestures.
You sleep around with most of my friends
You engage romantically with many of the people close to me.
And it never ends
This behavior seems endless or perpetual.
It never ends
Highlighting the ongoing nature of the situation.
It never ends
Reiterating the sense of never-ending circumstances.
When I'm seeing red I'm embarrassed
Feeling intense anger or frustration, leading to embarrassment.
It's suffocating
It feels overwhelming and stifling.
I hoped howling out all this truth
I hoped that expressing all these truths would bring liberation.
Would be liberating
Expected release or freedom by expressing these truths.
But all the pity spills from the seams
Compassion or sympathy spills out uncontrollably.
And everyone questions the unseen
Others doubt or question what they cannot see or understand.
And it sets you free
This doubt or questioning liberates you.
It sets you free
Reiterating the idea of liberation through questioning.
It sets you free
Emphasizing the idea of freedom or release from doubt.
