Circles
Breaking the Cycle: Anthem Lights' Journey of Redemption
Lyrics
Ready set, go
Expressing readiness and starting an attempt.
This is take 37, let it roll
Indicating multiple takes in a creative process, emphasizing persistence.
I'm gonna get it right this time
Determination to get things right this time.
Gonna fight this time
Commitment to fight challenges.
This time I'm for real
Emphasizing sincerity and genuine effort.
Look at me go
Expressing confidence and progress.
I'm off flying straight as an arrow
Describing a positive momentum, moving straight ahead.
But then I feel the wing blowing
Unexpected obstacles or distractions.
Gravity sets in
Reference to the force of gravity, indicating challenges.
And I don't know how to deal
Feeling lost and uncertain in the face of difficulties.
I always start so strong
Noting a pattern of starting with determination.
Before you even know it, I'm right back at the start
Quickly reverting to old habits or mistakes.
Doing what I hate and breaking my own heart
Engaging in self-destructive behavior, causing emotional pain.
I'm going back and forth and then forth and then back and then
Describing a cyclical pattern of behavior.
Round in circles
Summarizing the cyclical nature, moving in circles.
I was never meant to travel on my own
Acknowledging the need for companionship or support.
So no matter what I try if I'm trying alone
Recognizing the challenge of facing difficulties alone.
I'm going back and forth and then forth and then back and then
Reiterating the cyclical struggle of going back and forth.
Round in circles
Reaffirming the cyclical nature, moving in circles.
Here's what I know
Acknowledging confusion or lack of clear direction.
Direction goes out the window
Noting the impact of external influences on direction.
The second that I hear your word
Highlighting the influence of meaningful words.
I forget what I heard
Experiencing forgetfulness or distraction despite impactful words.
And go on just the same
Continuing in a familiar but possibly unproductive way.
But the beautiful part
Recognizing a positive aspect amidst challenges.
It doesn't have to be this hard
Acknowledging the unnecessary difficulty in the situation.
I'm just deceiving myself
Admitting self-deception and the need for external assistance.
I know I need your help
Acknowledging the necessity of help from others.
Something's gotta change
Expressing a realization that change is imperative.
I know I need a change because
Acknowledging the need for personal transformation.
No more insanity, I'm letting go of me
Rejecting a cycle of irrational behavior and reclaiming control.
All the independence made me dizzy
Reflecting on the negative consequences of independence.
Now I can't see where I'm suppose to be
Expressing disorientation and a need for guidance.
I had my turn and now my lesson's learned
Learning from past mistakes and experiences.
I touched the fire and I got burned
Conveying the pain and consequences of reckless actions.
I need your healing touch, I've had enough
Expressing a need for healing and reaching a breaking point.
I'm tired of saying
Conveying weariness and a desire for change.
