Lyrics
Was an autumn day
Reflecting on a specific autumn day
your pulling me way
Feeling emotionally distant, being pulled away
like a dragon cigarette
Comparing a relationship to a consuming and possibly harmful habit, like a dragon-shaped cigarette
taking every final cent
Experiencing financial strain due to the relationship
you tell me all I want
Receiving information about desires or needs
you wish for all they want
Expressing mutual desires or wishes
mom keeps it to herself
Someone (possibly mom) keeps secrets to themselves
on top of every shelf
Secrets are stored or hidden on various surfaces
you've got to scream and shout
Emphasizing the need to express oneself passionately
she lets it all hang out
Someone is unreserved and open in their expression
i told them all before
Previously warned others about the situation
you made me kiss the floor
Being forced to submit or experience defeat
and everything I knew
Reflecting on past knowledge and experiences
keeps coming back to you
Past experiences keep resurfacing in the present
as far as I could see
As far as the perspective allows
you know that where I'd be
Knowing where one would be in a given situation
in your eternity
Referencing a lasting connection or commitment
And when you shout it out
When expressing emotions, avoid complete openness
don't let it all hang out
Cautioning against excessive self-disclosure
you feel in your skin
Feeling something deeply on a visceral level
don't know where it's been
Uncertainty about the origins of emotions
you feel it in your side
Feeling a negative impact on one's self-esteem
stealing all your pride
Experiencing a loss of personal dignity
to know what you are missing
Understanding what is missing in life
you break instead of breathing
Struggling to cope, breaking instead of breathing
and everything I knew
Continued reflection on past knowledge and experiences
keeps coming back to you
Past experiences continue to influence the present
and everything you see
Considering the consequences of one's actions
you know that where you'd be
Knowing where one would be in a particular situation
in your eternity
Referring to a lasting connection or commitment in someone else's perspective
