Pilot
Journey Through the Deep: A Story Told by Pilot
Lyrics
Baby I'll take you where you wanna go
Expressing a willingness to guide and support someone to their desired destination.
I keep swimming in the deep end
Metaphorically swimming in challenging situations or emotions.
Eventually you'll touch down
Anticipating a moment of stability or resolution.
Rock bottom hit the pavement
Reaching a low point or facing difficulties.
Come up for a deep breath
Emerging from challenges and taking a breath.
Strung out on the runway
Feeling overwhelmed and strained in life's journey.
You keep looking for the landing strip
Searching for a solution or direction in a difficult situation.
Yeah
An affirmation or encouragement.
Baby I'll take you where you wanna go
Reiteration of the willingness to guide someone.
Thousands of miles in my head
A reflection on a vast mental space or distance.
I know you had to let go
Acknowledging a past release or detachment.
Just letting you know that I can't
Expressing the inability to change the past.
Baby I'll face the things you'll never know
Willingness to face challenges on behalf of someone else.
Cause I was born in the deep end
Identifying with being born into difficult circumstances.
Eventually you'll calm down
Expectation of calming down after turbulent times.
Realize you're just a vapor
Realization of the temporary nature of life.
And right when it started
A reflection on the beginning of a journey or experience.
I was hoping I would get it
Hopeful anticipation of understanding.
And the light at the end
Viewing the destination as something intense and meaningful.
Was something so much more burning
Questioning the nature of the endpoint.
Is there an end or just a rainbow
Exploring the uncertainty of whether there is a conclusion or just more challenges.
Baby I'll take you where you wanna go
Reiteration of the offer to guide someone.
Thousands of miles in my head
Revisiting the vast mental space or distance.
I know you had to let go
Recalling the necessity of letting go.
Just letting you know that I can't
Reaffirming the inability to change the past.
Baby I'll take you where you wanna go
Repetition of the offer to guide someone.
Thousands of miles in my head
Repetition of the vast mental space or distance.
I know you had to let go
Reiteration of the necessity of letting go.
Just letting you know that I can't
Reaffirmation of the inability to change the past.
Cause I'm a pilot on the weekends
Describing oneself as a pilot during leisure time.
Weekends
Repetition for emphasis on the weekend aspect.
Hard to see up here but I can
Acknowledging challenges but expressing clarity or insight.
I can yeah
Confidence in navigating challenges.
No I'm never gonna touch down
Commitment to staying aloft, avoiding negative emotions.
All your tears have dried out
Indicating emotional healing and moving forward.
And the engines blew up
Metaphor of facing challenges while intoxicated.
I'm drunk on this plane
Experiencing a sense of freedom and detachment.
Free falling above an ocean of us
Describing a unique and valuable quality in oneself.
A diamond in the rough
Metaphor of being a valuable but unpolished person.
So I jumped from the plane
Taking a significant risk or making a bold move.
But it wasn't enough
Feeling that a bold move wasn't sufficient.
Baby I'll take you where you wanna go
Reiteration of the offer to guide someone.
Thousands of miles in my head
Repetition of the vast mental space or distance.
