Closure
Teneia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My glazed eyes in a darken room,
Walking heartbreak into my new year,
I know enough here to buy & sell
Cause I didn’t get closure
I’m still expect to nod and smile, OOh
A feeling I cannot hide
By now I know I’d failed,
To keep my anger to myself,
I paint a portrait into a masterpiece,
Just so I can feel my wounded grief,
Cause I didn’t get closure,
I’m still expect to nod and smile
I didn’t get closure,
A feeling I could not hide
May it dawn on me I’m mad,
May it drown on me when I’m sad,
May it dawn on me I’ve broken down, yeah
May It dawn on me I’m mad,
May it drown on me when I’m sad
May it dawn on me I’ve broken down
Closure
Still expect to nod and smile
I didn’t get closure,
A feeling I could not hide

I don't think we ever REALLY get closure in life. In this moment right now, that's all that matters. The past can be haunting, the future does not exist.
