Spine
Morning Musings: Unearthing Hope and Joy in 'Spine'
Lyrics
Pour my oats into a porcelain bowl
Pouring oats into a porcelain bowl, starting the day with a routine or mundane task.
It's missing something, it's milk I suppose
Noticing something missing, speculating that milk is needed to complete the breakfast.
I look deep and drip straight to the bone
Reflecting deeply and addressing the essence or core of a situation.
I look deep and dig straight to the don't
Continuing to explore deeply, possibly encountering aspects that are best left untouched.
Cause finding what I'm looking for will send me straight to the stones
Expressing the fear that searching for what one desires might lead to negative consequences.
Over dirt I roll, in silver plated chrome
Moving forward despite challenges, symbolized by rolling over dirt in a silver plated chrome.
Shovel out, gloves on, dig straight below
Engaging in hard work, digging beneath the surface with determination.
No need to tell me what I already know
Asserting self-awareness, understanding things without external validation.
That no one likes to borrow joy from tomorrow
Recognizing the importance of living in the present rather than borrowing happiness from the future.
Hole so deep, catch some bad vertigo
Describing a deep emotional state, possibly related to the consequences of the search.
And throw up from the feeling, feeling like I don't know
Experiencing intense emotions and a sense of confusion or disorientation.
Hope not zero, I hope there's soul, hope that breakfast will not get too cold
Expressing hope for a positive outcome, a soulful experience, and warm breakfast.
Everything will be alright
Reassurance that everything will be alright, conveying optimism.
Hope not zero, I hope there's soul, hope that breakfast will not get too cold
Reiteration of hope for a meaningful experience and a warm breakfast.
Hope not zero, hope there's soul, hope that breakfast will not get too cold
Further emphasis on hope, suggesting a desire for a positive outcome.
Everything will be alright
Reassurance that everything will be alright, reinforcing a positive outlook.
Everything will be alright
Repetition of the reassurance, concluding the lyrics with optimism.
