Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve.
The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future.
Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere"
The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
I was back and forth
From armed to desperate,
Lost to fully aware.
How was your weekend?
You get your time alone?
It used to sound so peaceful,
Now it's panic-ridden.
How was your weekend?
I'm alright for now,
But I haven't been.
Got lots of shit behind me.
I'm alright for now.
I'll talk while I can,
But it hasn't been that easy.
It's simple talk at best.
Like "how's your weekend?"
When I went away
I made no decisions.
I couldn't trust them to me.
I was too weak then.
I'm alright for now,
But I haven't been.
Got lot's of shit behind me.
I'm alright for now
From armed to desperate,
Lost to fully aware.
How was your weekend?
You get your time alone?
It used to sound so peaceful,
Now it's panic-ridden.
How was your weekend?
I'm alright for now,
But I haven't been.
Got lots of shit behind me.
I'm alright for now.
I'll talk while I can,
But it hasn't been that easy.
It's simple talk at best.
Like "how's your weekend?"
When I went away
I made no decisions.
I couldn't trust them to me.
I was too weak then.
I'm alright for now,
But I haven't been.
Got lot's of shit behind me.
I'm alright for now
