Musings on Uncertainty: Worthitpurchase's Sweater
Lyrics
I got a few bucks in my pocket, I'll close the door and lock it
I have a few dollars in my pocket, and I will secure myself by closing and locking the door.
And I drive to the house I was yours in
I drive to the house where I used to belong or where our relationship existed.
Everybody's talking, bout how the future's so uncertain
People are discussing the uncertainty of the future.
So I float in the pool I learned to swim in
I float in a pool where I learned to swim, perhaps seeking comfort or nostalgia.
I never dream, so I sleep instead
I don't have dreams; instead, I choose to sleep.
There's not a nightmare in my head
No nightmares bother me.
I keep seeing faces of those I haven't met yet
I keep seeing faces of people I haven't met yet, suggesting a contemplation of the unknown future.
I've just been thinking maybe
I have been considering the possibility.
If someone's bound to break me
If someone is destined to hurt me.
You can, can it be you then?
Questioning if it could be you who breaks me.
You can, can it be you then?
Repetition of the question, emphasizing the uncertainty.
The more I think the less I understand
The more I contemplate, the less I comprehend.
Tracing the lifelines on my hand
Reflecting on the lines on the palm of the hand, possibly symbolizing the complexity of life.
Even the crystal gazer said she doesn't know yet
A reference to a fortune teller who also doesn't know the future.
And just like that
A sudden shift in the narrative.
You take a seat and you start to chat
Taking a seat and engaging in conversation.
About things that feel much different than before
Talking about things that feel different than before, possibly indicating a changed perspective.
I'm sorry bout your sweater
An apology for something related to a sweater.
I shrunk it in the drier
The sweater shrank in the dryer.
I tried to stretch it back but I don't know what for
Attempts to fix the shrunken sweater but unsure of the purpose.
I've just been thinking maybe
Reiteration of considering the possibility.
If someone's bound to break me
Rephrasing the idea of someone causing emotional harm.
You can, can it be you then?
Repeating the question of whether it could be you who breaks me.
You can, can it be you then?
Emphasizing the uncertainty and seeking clarity.
I've just been sitting lazy
Expressing a state of idleness and lack of motivation.
My vision's getting hazy
Experiencing blurred vision and a carefree attitude.
Soft skin, sunny side up grin
Describing soft skin and a cheerful grin.
Soft skin, sunny side up grin
Repetition of the description, possibly indicating a desire for simplicity and positivity.
