Lyrics

It's all been so hard to tell

It has been challenging to express or communicate

In the way it always stayed so soft

Things remained gentle or easy in a consistent manner

At any cost

Regardless of the consequences

I still fell in love with you

Despite difficulties, I fell in love with you

I still fell in love

Reiterating the experience of falling in love

And I don't mind, I don't mind anymore

I no longer mind, I am indifferent now


Am I hanging on and on?

Questioning if I'm persisting unnecessarily

Made of time

Composed of time

And then it's gone too late

And then it's too late, time has passed

Is it too late?

Reflecting on whether it's beyond the opportune moment

I feel sad enough, do I feel bad enough?

Wondering if my sadness is sufficient, questioning if I feel bad enough

I'm talking backward, falling forward again

Communicating in a confusing or contradictory manner, falling into challenges again


Am I far from dying?

Questioning if death is imminent or if I'm close to dying

I won't give up my ghost

Refusing to surrender my spirit or essence

And I'm not done trying to

Continuing to make an effort

Don't give up the ghost

Encouraging not to give up one's spirit or essence


Settle down, settle down

Settling down, finding calmness

Speak in motion, sure emotion

Expressing oneself through movement and clear emotions

Are you hurt enough?

Questioning if there's enough pain or distress

Do I feel bad enough?

Reflecting on personal feelings of inadequacy

And we can't care, we can't care anymore

We are unable to care anymore


Am I far from dying?

Questioning if death is imminent or if I'm close to dying

I won't give up my ghost

Refusing to surrender my spirit or essence

And I'm not done trying to

Continuing to make an effort

Don't give up the ghost

Encouraging not to give up one's spirit or essence


And I'm not done trying to

Expressing the determination to persist and keep trying
