undressed
Sombr Lyrics

You had a dream, you wanted better
You held aspirations for a brighter future, longing for improvement in your life.

You were sick of all the holes in your sweater
You grew tired of dealing with the flaws and imperfections in your current situation.

You looked to me and wondered whether
You turned to me, questioning if I could offer the support or stability you sought.

I was the lamppost to which you were tethered
You relied on me as a source of light and guidance in your life, feeling anchored to my presence.

I'm lookin' at you, and you're lookin' at me
We share a moment of mutual awareness, both aware of our connection.

But the glimmer in your eyes is sayin' you wanna leave
Despite our shared gaze, the spark in your eyes reveals a desire to escape or move on.

You say you don't mean what you're sayin' to me
You claim that your words don't reflect your true feelings or intentions towards me.

But the glimmer in your eyes is telling me other things
Your eyes betray you, revealing unspoken thoughts and emotions that contradict your words.

I don't wanna get undressed
I hesitate to become vulnerable and intimate with someone new.

For a new person all over again
I dread the experience of starting over and opening myself up to someone else.

I don't wanna kiss someone else's neck
I am reluctant to engage in physical affection with another, as it feels wrong.

And have to pretend it's yours instead
I don't want to fake an intimacy that I truly associate with you and not someone else.

I took the train to see my mother
I embarked on a journey to visit my family, perhaps reflecting on my past.

I look across the track to see you with another
While traveling, I catch sight of you with someone else, stirring feelings of heartbreak.

There's nothin' worse than seein' your lover
Experiencing the sight of your beloved with someone else brings immense pain.

Moving on while you still suffer
It is deeply distressing to watch you move on while I remain in a state of emotional turmoil.

I'm lookin' at you, and you're lookin' at me
Amidst our shared glance, there is an undeniable tension and connection between us.

But the glimmer in your eyes is sayin' you wanna leave
The spark in your eyes indicates your inner conflict, suggesting a wish to break free.

You say you don't mean what you're sayin' to me
You reassure me that your spoken words shouldn't be taken at face value, yet I sense otherwise.

But the glimmer in your eyes is telling me other things
Your gaze contradicts your reassurances, revealing deeper emotions that connect us.

I don't wanna get undressed
I resist the idea of shedding my barriers to become intimate and open with someone new.

For a new person all over again
The thought of starting from scratch in intimacy is overwhelming and unappealing.

I don't wanna kiss someone else's neck
I wish to avoid experiencing closeness with another, as it feels deeply unnatural.

And have to pretend it's yours instead
The thought of mimicking affection that is truly meant for you feels insincere and hurtful.

And I don't wanna learn another scent
I am unwilling to familiarize myself with another's essence, as it diminishes my connection to you.

I don't want the children of another man
I seek to avoid the reality of forming a family with someone else, a living reminder of my loss.

To have the eyes of the girl that I won't forget
The thought of another's child possessing your features serves as a perpetual reminder of you.

I won't forget
My memories of you and our times together will remain etched in my mind, unresolved and lasting.

I don't wanna get undressed
I remain hesitant to remove my emotional barriers and engage intimately once more.

For a new person all over again
The idea of re-experiencing intimacy feels daunting and unfathomable at this moment.
