True North
Navigating Love's Journey: True North by Attic Wolves
Lyrics
The tide is high, the time is now
The current situation or circumstances are significant, and it's time to take action.
To say goodbye, to leave this town
It's time to bid farewell to the current place or situation, possibly in pursuit of something better.
For shores unknown, push off and go
Embarking on a journey towards unknown destinations or opportunities.
My brothers and I will find our home
The speaker and their brothers are determined to find a place they can call home.
The journey's long, but we've got company
The journey is challenging, but the speaker is not alone; there is companionship.
And a new song to sing to carry us on
A new purpose or motivation (a new song) is helping them persevere.
And though the oceans rage, this will never change:
Despite facing difficulties ("oceans rage"), the core principle remains steadfast: love as the guiding force.
Our one true north is Love
Their ultimate direction or guiding principle is love, referred to as their "one true north."
It won't be long 'fore we see our fate
The speaker anticipates that their fate or destination will become clear soon.
'Til we find land or a watery grave
The uncertainty of either finding land or facing a perilous situation like a watery grave.
On Earth we'll run, or meet the Son of Man
On Earth, they will either continue running or encounter the "Son of Man" (a biblical reference to Christ).
It might be today , it might be today
The uncertainty of when a significant event might occur, possibly today.
The current's strong, O Lord I am weak
The speaker acknowledges their vulnerability in the face of a strong current but relies on a higher power.
But You keep me on my feet when my sea legs have gone
Despite challenges, the speaker credits the higher power for providing stability and support.
And though the oceans rage, this will never change:
Reiteration that, despite tumultuous circumstances, the guiding principle remains love.
Our one true north is Love
Reaffirmation that love serves as their unwavering guiding principle ("one true north").
Love Love Love Love Love Love
An emphatic repetition of the importance of love.
Yes my Savior loves me, yes He really loves me, yes I really love my Savior
A personal affirmation of the speaker's belief in the love of their Savior.
