Yearning for Freedom: Emotional Depths Explored in 'Boulder' by We're from Antarctica
Lyrics
You need your space is it a waste to keep chasing you around
Expressing a desire for personal space and questioning if pursuing the person is futile.
Well at least now I know what you meant when you told me you wanna skip town
Reflecting on understanding the intention behind the person's desire to leave the current place.
But please could you do this one thing for me
Pleading for a favor from the person, suggesting vulnerability or a request for cooperation.
I don't care if you're out of my league
Expressing indifference to social status differences, implying a deeper connection.
Next time tell me if you're gonna leave
Requesting open communication about future departures, valuing honesty in relationships.
We all want to be free
Asserting a universal desire for freedom, possibly reflecting on individual aspirations.
In the basement heart racing and I don't know how to slow it down
Describing a tense emotional state in a confined space, struggling to calm down.
Talk is cheap I believe I'm waiting on a cure that won't be found
Expressing skepticism about the effectiveness of talk and anticipating a solution that may not come.
You know how to help me when I'm all alone
Acknowledging someone's supportive role during moments of solitude.
If you want me I'll be right over
Offering availability for connection, a willingness to be present for the person.
One look and you have me, I'm sold
Indicating susceptibility to influence through a look, suggesting a deep emotional impact.
I'll pack up my things and go
Expressing a readiness to leave or make a significant change based on emotional connection.
You know how to help me when I'm all alone
