| Artist vs. Poet – Miserably Loving You Lyrics | 14 years ago |

"Everything has changed. And though we tried, not to compromise what burns inside, Your complex mind that changes everyday." I think he's saying that she over thinks a lot of and everything's changing because of it. "The sun has yet to set and you've already said good night." She's in a hurry to leave. When he talks about Emily, he's trying o convince her that there's nothing wrong with the way he feels about her and they're good together. "A month went by, a month that I can't describe, A month I've been trying to push aside and forget in time. And now we are inches away, but we're miles apart, So I'll dream of the day and how we felt at the start. But dreams don't come easy these days, And the colors, they fade into grays. " I think he's saying that for about a month, things have been falling apart and though he's trying to pretend that everything's how it used to be, it's obviously not and even when they're physically close there's still a distance between them. He continues to think about how they both felt at the start of the relationship and desperately wishes that things could still be that way. "Emily, c'mon, this was going somewhere, I won't let go of what we had" Here he's saying that their relationship was going somewhere and despite their current problems, he doesn't wan to let go of what they had. The rest of the song is about how he never thought she'd stop loving him and he never thought she'd just leave but she did and he still loves her so much that it hurts. |

"Distorting my own view of how I see myself, So untraceable to everybody else." I think that part is saying that everyone sees all the good in him, but he sees all his flaws. "Like the mirror, that's my rear view: Distorting my own views of how I see myself,It's not eraseable, I'm miserable as hell. As the pages turn, I begin to learn That I have every reason to resent myself." That part, to me, says that the way he sees himself (which is bad) can't be changed and he has all the reason in the world to hate himself. "I stand outside of my front porch and look at photographs of when, Things seemed simpler. But I pushed away, so this is where I am: At a different place where I lost track And everything's not alright. So I'll stand here left with nothing." There he's saying that things used to be way easier but he threw it all away and now he's completely lost and feels he has nothing. He's truly miserable. He's saying in the song that he's trying to hold on to everthing he had and doesn't want to change it. |
