Where Are We Going
Navigating Illusions: Unveiling the Journey in 'Where Are We Going'
Lyrics
Picture perfect on the surface
Appearances seem flawless or ideal at first glance
Oh these illusions that we worship
False beliefs or misconceptions that we highly value
I see the walls see the walls coming down now
Observing the collapse of barriers or defenses
I hope someday we’ll build ‘em up on solid ground
Desire for future reconstruction on a stable foundation
Consequences go unnoticed
Unintended outcomes or results that we fail to recognize
Like the weight that’s on our shoulders
Pressures or responsibilities unnoticed yet burdensome
Pulling us down pulling us down but we don’t know it
Forces weighing us down, though unaware of their impact
Or maybe we do but just like the truth we never show it
Possibly aware of issues but hide them like the truth
We don’t need more money
Stating a lack of necessity for additional wealth
‘Cause money ain’t the problem baby
Money isn't the fundamental problem in this context
What are we becoming
Ruminating on the transformation of our essence
‘Cause we’ve lost more time than we’ll ever get back
Reflecting on time lost irretrievably
And we need something to keep us on track
Seeking something to guide and keep us focused
Where are we going
Pondering about the direction of our journey
Where are we going
Questioning the destination repeatedly
Runnin’ circles around walls that we’ve built
Repeating cycles around self-erected obstacles
Chasing never ending feelings of guilt
Pursuing perpetual sensations of remorse or regret
Where are we going
Reiterating curiosity about the path ahead
Where are we going
Continuously inquiring about our trajectory
Everything makes sense on paper
Concepts seem logical or feasible in theory
Surface level’s always safer
Staying on superficial levels feels safer
Don’t let ‘em in don’t let ‘em in in case they find out
Avoiding intimacy to prevent revelation of inner truths
Somewhere within under the skin’s where you hide out
Hiding deep within oneself, concealed from view
We need more than cunning
Emphasizing the necessity for more than deceitfulness
Words that don’t solve nothin’
Words alone without action are ineffective
What are we becoming
Reflecting again on our transformation
‘Cause we’ve lost more time than we’ll ever get back
Reiterating the irreversible loss of time
And we need something to keep us on track
Desiring guidance or support to maintain direction
Where are we going
Persistently questioning the final destination
Where are we going
Repeating the query regarding our journey's end
Runnin’ circles around walls that we’ve built
Cyclically navigating around self-created barriers
Chasing never ending feelings of guilt
Chasing perpetual feelings of culpability
Where are we going
Continuing to ask about the direction we're heading
Where are we going
Reiterating the question about our trajectory
Where are we going
Repeating the inquiry about our path
Where are we going
Continually asking about our ultimate destination
Maybe we’ve had the map all along but we just didn’t know it
Speculating that perhaps the answers were within us all along but overlooked
Maybe we’ve been so wrapped up in the world that we missed the point and now it’s showin'
Considering being too engrossed in the external world, missing the essential message now apparent
How can we turn it around to hear the sound of inner peace
Pondering how to redirect and find inner tranquility
Maybe it’s simpler than we think it should be
Suggesting that the solution might be simpler than perceived
Where are we going
Repeating the query about our ultimate destination
Where are we going
Reiterating the inquiry about our final destination
Where are we going
Continuously asking about our direction
Where are we going
Repeating the question about our journey's end
