Hope
Journey of Hope and Regret: Anna Luther's Emotional Odyssey
Lyrics
I left my mother's arms, hoping another's would be just as warm
I left the comfort of my mother's embrace, hoping to find warmth in someone else's arms.
Now I'm not hot, but ice cold
Currently, I feel emotionally distant, perhaps even cold.
Maybe I chose the wrong time to hope
I may have chosen an unfavorable time to have hope, leading to disappointment.
(If I'd've known I would take it all back)
(Regret) If I had known, I would retract my actions or decisions.
Followed the siren's call, hoping another song would be just as sweet
I pursued a tempting allure, expecting another experience to be as delightful as the initial one.
(Forgive me, forgive me, forgive me)
(Apology) Please forgive me for my actions or choices.
Now all I taste are bitters
Now, all I experience is bitterness, contrary to the sweetness I anticipated.
Maybe I chose the wrong time to hope
Similar to line 3, I might have hoped at an inappropriate time, leading to regret.
(If I'd've known I'd've gone home)
(Regret) If I had known, I would have returned home.
I left my father's eyes, hoping another would help me see
I distanced myself from my father's perspective, expecting clarity from someone else.
Now it's all black, now I'm blind
Now, everything seems dark and unclear, and I feel metaphorically blind.
Maybe I wasn't following hope
Repeated lines suggesting uncertainty about whether the pursuit was genuinely driven by hope.
Maybe I wasn't following hope
-Maybe I wasn't following hope
-If I'd've known would take it all back, and hold my mother close, if I'd've known I would take it all back, and keep the sirens at bay, If I'd've known would take it all back, and hold my father close, if I'd've known I would take it all back, and go home
(Regret) Expressing a desire to undo choices and return to the comforting presence of parents or home.
And I'll try and I'll try and I'll try to come home
Expressing determination to make efforts to return home.
