The Lyrical Genesis: This song grew from a quiet, impossible wish: to step inside someone else’s life, just for a moment, and feel what it’s like to be them. If you have ever watched someone act in a way that makes no sense, being unreasonable, sharp-edged, closed off, then you know that ache to understand why. For an INFJ, that longing can feel like a calling. We reach past the surface and into the hidden currents: What joy shaped you? What pain? What patterns live behind the things you say? This song is that yearning. A hope that, if we could fully feel another person’s inner life, they might finally feel less alone, and we might finally feel that we understand. *** [intro - spoken] You see, an empath needs to FEEL you... not THAT way...let me explain- [verse] A root of my soul that oft takes a toll On my peace and pleasure Yearns for the soil where your soul toils To ascertain its measure [Wish list] To know all that you are To know your complex brain To know what causes joy To know what brings you pain [Want list] I want to be you for a second or two To see every scar, to feel all the pain I want to feel you - the real deal To bring knowing to a level of ideal [chorus] Then I will understand Then I will know what you mean Then I will finally hear every tone Then you will actually dance Around furniture, corners and plants To celebrate not being alone [verse] I just want to see what it means to be Only you and not me To fully understand the emotion on hand All at once, completely [Wish list] To know all that you are To know your complex brain To know what causes joy To know what brings you pain [Want list] I want to be you for a second or two To see every scar, to feel all the pain I want to feel you - the real deal To make knowing feel finally real [chorus] Then I will understand Then I will know what you mean Then I will finally hear every tone Then you will actually dance Around furniture, corners and plants To celebrate not being alone! [outro - spoken] Let's do YOU - together!
