Time and Place
Discovering Identity: A Quest for Time and Place
Lyrics
There's a time
Expressing the existence of a specific period.
I can remember waking up as someone else
Recalling a moment when the speaker woke up with a different identity.
My shoes don't fit and I'm not walking like myself
Feeling discomfort as the speaker's physical experience is altered.
I wish I couldn't tell
Desiring ignorance or unawareness of the changes.
that there's a different smell
Noticing a distinct scent associated with the hidden self.
when you hide inside the shell
Metaphorically describing hiding within oneself.
There is a time and place for
Introducing the idea that there is an appropriate time and place for things.
Everything, everything, everything
Emphasizing the concept that everything has its designated time and place.
I can't seem to find when and where I should be
Expressing difficulty in determining the appropriate time and place for the speaker.
There's a time for you and I
Highlighting a specific time for the speaker and someone else.
There's a place for you and I
Identifying a specific place for the speaker and someone else.
There's a time for you and I
Reiterating the notion of a designated time for the speaker and someone else.
There's a place for you and I
Reiterating the idea of a designated place for the speaker and someone else.
There's a place
Referring to a particular location.
Waiting to wake up with a smile on my face
Desiring to wake up with joy on the speaker's face.
Hoping there comes a day that's not about the chase
Expressing hope for a day free from pursuit or competition.
I wish I lived in space
Expressing a desire to live in a different, perhaps ideal, environment.
But there's a different taste when you look like you're a waste
Noting a distinct experience or perception when appearing a certain way.
There is a time and place for
Reiterating the concept that everything has its designated time and place.
Everything, everything, everything
Emphasizing the idea that everything has its proper timing and location.
I can't seem to find when and where I should be
Expressing continued difficulty in finding the appropriate time and place for the speaker.
There's a time for you and I
Reiterating a specific time for the speaker and someone else.
There's a place for you and I
Reiterating a specific place for the speaker and someone else.
There's a time for you and I
Emphasizing once again a designated time for the speaker and someone else.
There's a place for you and I
Reiterating a designated place for the speaker and someone else.
There's a time for you and I
Concluding with a repetition of the concept of a designated time for the speaker and someone else.
