Here's to the Dying
A Tribute to Life's Struggles: Here's to the Dying
Lyrics
Here's to the dying
Reflection on mortality and acknowledging those facing the end of life.
Here's to the hurt
Paying tribute to those experiencing emotional pain or suffering.
Here's to the crying
Recognizing and toasting to the expression of sorrow and tears.
As we're returned to dirt
Contemplating the inevitability of returning to the earth upon death.
Trying to find
Searching for stability or security in life's challenges.
Somewhere solid to stand
Desiring a firm foundation to stand on amidst difficulties.
Cause it's getting so hard
Expressing the increasing difficulty faced without a supportive presence.
Without you holding my hand
Emphasizing the impact of the absence of someone who once offered guidance.
Here's to our mothers
Acknowledging and toasting to the nurturing role of mothers.
Raised daughters and sons
Recognizing parents who raised and guided their children.
Your sister and my brothers
Highlighting the bond between siblings taught the value of love.
That they taught how to love
Paying homage to the influence of family in fostering love.
If you don't mind
Requesting support or assistance from a higher power.
Won't you reach down your hand
Seeking a helping hand in the face of challenges and difficulties.
Cause it's getting so hard
Expressing the increasing hardship without the aid of a supportive figure.
Without you to stand
Emphasizing the struggle of standing alone without needed support.
Here's to our fathers
Honoring and recognizing the challenges faced by fathers.
Oh They're trying to get by
Acknowledging the efforts of fathers trying to navigate life.
Without their best friend
Highlighting the difficulty faced without a close companion.
And the love of their life
Acknowledging the absence of the central love in one's life.
So if you don't mind
Requesting divine assistance for a female figure in need.
Could you reach down her hand
Seeking support for a woman facing challenges and hardship.
Cause it's getting so hard
Expressing the increasing difficulty without the presence of a loved one.
Without her to stand
Highlighting the struggle of standing alone without necessary support.
Trying to find
Reiterating the quest for stability or security in life's challenges.
Somewhere solid to stand
Desiring a firm foundation to stand on amidst difficulties.
Cause it's getting so hard
Expressing the increasing difficulty faced without a supportive presence.
Without you holding my hand
Emphasizing the impact of the absence of someone who once offered guidance.
Here's to the dying
Repeating the initial toast to those facing the end of life.
Here's to the hurt
Reiterating the acknowledgment of emotional pain or suffering.
Here's to the dying
Concluding with a final toast to those nearing the end of their journey.
