Sunday Jen
Slackstring Lyrics

Monday morn is taking this life away from me.
I am feeling drained and unfulfilled by the repetitive and mundane nature of my life, particularly on Monday mornings.

I find myself in the same place again.
I feel like I'm stuck in a rut, unable to break free from the monotony of my current situation.

Staring at the same four walls,
I am trapped in a small and unstimulating environment with no opportunities for growth or change.

screen makes my eyeballs crawl,
Spending so much time in front of a computer screen is exhausting and draining, making me feel physically uncomfortable and agitated.

and no man was made to live the life I'm in.
I feel like my current circumstances are unfair and unfulfilling, and that there must be more to life than this.

But I won't spend time on your giant clock,
I refuse to waste my time conforming to the rigid expectations and schedules of society.

my imagination just won't stop.
Despite my frustration with my current situation, I constantly dream of new possibilities and ways to break free from my constraints.

I just can't let this feeling go,
The desire for change and something more fulfilling is so strong that I cannot ignore it or suppress it.

I guess I should just ask you so...
I feel that the person being addressed might hold the key to the change and fulfilment I seek.

Sunday Jen, oh won't you let me come see you tomorrow,
The person I am addressing, Sunday Jen, is someone who represents excitement and new possibilities to me, and I desperately want to spend time with them.

though I know my time is six days away.
I am acutely aware of the distance between us and the limitations of time that make it difficult for me to achieve the change I crave.

Sunday Jen, oh this I know, the future can't be borrowed,
I am aware that the future is uncertain and cannot be predicted or relied upon, and that I must make the most of the time I have in the present.

but there's no one else who makes me feel this way.
Despite the distance and uncertainty, the person being addressed is the only one who makes me feel truly alive and excited about the future.

No since forcing it, you just got to let it flow.
I realize that it is fruitless to try and force things to happen, and that I need to allow events to unfold naturally.

And I can't think to say I let it go.
I am too invested in the possibility of change to simply give up on my dreams and desires.

After all this time, after all that we've been through,
The relationship between the artist and Sunday Jen has a history and depth that gives them hope for the future, despite the distance between them.

just one less car 'on down the avenue
Removing one obstacle or barrier to achieving their goals will bring the artist one step closer to the change and new possibilities they crave.

Abstract thoughts on a page, were never really my forte,
The singer is not well-suited to logical and detached thinking, and instead prefers to let their emotions guide them towards their goals.

and too much logic and Savoir Faire for two souls in parallel.
The person being addressed, Sunday Jen, is very different from the singer in terms of their approach to life, but their connection is strong enough to overcome these differences.

Oh Sunday Jen, won't you let me come see you tomorrow,
The artist repeats their plea to spend time with Sunday Jen, indicating the depth of their desire for change and new possibilities.
