Here We Are
Journey of Redemption: Here We Are by Alone I Walk
Lyrics
It started out as nothing more
Starting from nothing significant
Then a dream the one as kids that we adored
A dream from childhood that was cherished
And through it all we found our way
Navigating challenges, discovering our path
It's time to show them all that they have made mistakes
Time to prove others wrong about their mistakes
We could be sitting here wasting away
Alternative life could be wasting time in despair
Stuck in self hate trying to make it through the day
Struggling with self-hate to survive each day
Now here we are we made it on our own
Achieving success independently
We'll make it to the coast
Heading towards the coast, a metaphorical journey
Then we'll find our way back home
Planning to return home after the journey
They see us living every night
Public perception of a successful nightly life
And think why did I not do more with my life?
Reflecting on life choices and missed opportunities
We see the sadness in their eyes
Observing sadness in others, understanding their pain
It's no wonder that we watch these cities cry
Witnessing the sorrow of cities, perhaps metaphorical
We could be sitting here wasting away
Contrasting the potential for despair with their own success
Stuck in self hate trying to make it through the day
Dealing with internal struggles to survive
Now here we are we made it on our own
Emphasizing self-made success
We'll make it to the coast
Continuing the journey towards a coastal destination
Then we'll find our way back home
Anticipating a return to the place of origin
Nobody knows what matters most
Highlighting the elusive nature of what truly matters
'Til they see what they've been dreaming come to life
Recognition of dreams coming to life as a revelation
Nobody looks down those new roads
Overlooking unexplored possibilities and pathways
That's why they keep breathing dreaming in the dark
People persist in dreaming despite uncertainty
We could be sitting here wasting away
Reiteration of the potential for a desolate existence
Stuck in self hate trying to make it through the day
Struggling with internal conflicts to endure each day
Now here we are we made it on our own
Affirmation of individual accomplishment
We'll make it to the coast
Continuing the journey towards the coast
Then we'll find our way back home
Planning to find a way back home
