Undone
I Mother Earth Lyrics

Laying alone, body shaking
Being alone, the person is anxious and fearful, which is physically manifested through trembling.

Cars outside
The sound of cars passing by outside is in contrast to the singer's emotions and feelings, leading to a sense of disconnect and loneliness.

They're singing their songs
The individuals outside do not acknowledge the singer's pain and continue going about their lives without concern.

The candles wave
The symbolism of the candles flickering and wavering is a metaphor for the instability and uncertainty the person feels.

And I get to thinking
Left alone with their thoughts, the person begins to ponder about how other individuals respond to their own internal struggles.

How people see things
Reflecting on how perspectives differ from person to person, and how these perspectives impact how people cope with their personal issues.

And deal with them
Every individual has their way of handling problems and coming to terms with them, even though it may not be apparent to others.

In different ways
not all people experience things the same way, and their personal experiences color the way they react and respond to life events.

Trying to move forward
Despite the fear and anxiety, the individual tries to keep going and maintains a positive outlook.

Like a walk underwater
The feeling of moving forward very little progress, creating a sense of stagnation and frustration.

Two steps back
Although trying to get closer to the end goal, they continuously feel like they are moving in the opposite direction.

Like a walk through silent streets
Moving forward without any direction in complete silence, leaving the person with the feeling of loneliness.

I've heard the word
Concerning an issue they've heard people talk about before,

Guess I'm tired of trying
The person is tired of putting effort into dealing with their issues as it feels like its for nought.

Everybody
An expression of collective way of thought on the subject.

I'm saying the 'pop' is gone
The life and vitality that were once present have been lost, with nothing to serve as an anchor to keep the person grounded or content.

Fighting the fight
Striving to win the mental battle, regardless of the situation or concequences.

With the waterline
water line being used as a metaphor for the level of seriousness or gravity that the individual is facing.

Catching breathe
Putting in effort to remain calm and level-headed during times of panic.

And a dirty breeze
Similar to the the waterline, this is used to show environmental conditions that the individual is dealing with.

What's been used up
Referencing to how the struggles one is faced with can deplete them on a mental and physical level.

Has been more than needed
The struggles has accumulated exponentially, causing the emotional tank to overflow.

One river rolling
A metaphor for change and progression in this line, they are moving away from their personal issues and becoming a new person.

Two rivers run dry
A reference to the struggles that are now behind them and the need to breakaway completely.

I'm down
Bearing the weight of everything on their shoulders and struggling to get back up.

Undone
The individual's sense of oneself is unraveling, with nothing offering stability or new hope.

Down, undone then gone
Starting to slip under the surface of their struggles, a precursor to vanishing entirely.

Behind, beyond
Fixed on leaving everything that they once were behind and looking to the future.

Soft hands
Referring to the positive aspects of life, as it fills the person with warmth and gentleness.

That touch the sun
Expressing the feeling of finally being at peace and in a much better place.
