Opposite Lyrics

You are the loneliest person that I've ever known
We are joined at the surface but nowhere else
I look in the glass and stare at your, strained, grey, motionless face and ask
Underneath, is there a golden soul?

Take care of the ones that...

    I used to think it was about a couple who got together and had a superficial relationship because she was living in the past.

    Now after reflection, I think it's about someone living their life with depression and suddenly wake up and look in the mirror (I look in the glass
    And stare at your strained
    Grey, motionless face) and think nah, not doing this. I'm gonna get better I'm going to shift this depression. The person believed they let go of that perfect life (in love with a shadow) and won't get it back. But now they have realised their value in life.

    Keeo going, keep fighting it will get better.

    Sooner or later
    We all have to wake
    And try forgetting everything
    Underneath there's a perfect sky

    Being in love with someone who is emotionally closed and shut down. Like my boyfriend... It's killing me him being that sort of person and I think it's making it worse for him. Reluctantly, we are heading in opposite directions. =(
