Gemini
Whether I Lyrics

Are you so narrow minded that you never stopped to think
Are you so limited in your thinking that you cannot consider the long term implications of your decisions?

Two steps past this fleeting moment or what a life could mean
Looking beyond the present to the future and the potential of life

And you can't stand the thought that you were wrong
You cannot bear the idea that you made a mistake

Blaming all those who were never at fault
Holding others responsible for something that was not their doing

Take a step aside and tip toe past lines
Stepping back and being cautious while navigating difficult situations

So rehearsed to convince yourself you are fine
Trying hard to convince yourself that everything is okay, even if it's not

If there was even a chance
Inquiring if there is any possibility of the situation changing

Could you still bring yourself to turn away
Can you still walk away from something or someone who is detrimental to your well-being

Cold feet dripping ice into your veins
A sense of fear creeping into your being

Is it second nature just to throw a guiltless life aside
Do you have a habit of disregarding the lives of others without feeling remorse?

You built yourself up, the pain still burns in your eyes
Despite your efforts to appear strong, the pain and hurt you've experienced is still evident in your eyes

Where are you now
Asking what your current location or state is

Was this not your home
Questioning whether the place where you are now was once your dwelling

Guess I'll step up and be the man that you never were
Deciding to be the better person that you never were

Can you stand to look in the mirror
Can you be honest with yourself and face your own reflection

Are you alone
Asking if you are currently by yourself

You said you'd never leave
Recalling a previous promise from you that you would never leave

Tell me was it easy
Asking if it was easy to break that promise and leave

Can you live with the mistakes you've made
Asking if you can deal with the consequences of your actions

Does it sting to think I'll never know your name
Does it hurt to think that the person you once were is forever lost and unknown

Where are you now
Questioning your current whereabouts

How long has it been since you have heard my name
Asking how long it has been since you last thought about or remembered the artist

And how long will you treat this like a game
Asking how much longer will you continue to brush off the situation like it's not important

And what will it take for it to go my way there's gotta be a better way
Wondering what needs to happen for the situation to turn in their favor and thinking there must be a better solution

It's not your voice I'm looking for now
Clarifying that the singer is not searching for your voice anymore

And these halls I pass
Referring to the singer's surroundings

Never meant much with you around
Implying that the halls and the surroundings never felt complete or important with you present

I'm becoming something that you never will
Becoming a better person than you ever have the potential to be

Stop and take a look around
Pause and assess the current situation

This ships not going down
Asserting that everything is not falling apart or sinking

You never even said goodbye
Recollecting the hurtful memory of not receiving a proper goodbye

Where are you now
Asking about your current location or state

Was this not your home
Questioning whether the place where you are now was once your dwelling
