A Little Less Hopeless
Embracing Light: A Journey to Overcome Darkness
Lyrics
We'll never know
We are faced with uncertainty, and certain aspects of the future are unknowable.
Where we will go
The destination or outcome of our journey is unclear.
The future's not carved out of
The future is not predetermined or fixed, and it's not set in stone.
Or carved into stone
There is no definitive path or destiny carved into stone for us.
This rising sun
A metaphorical reference to a new beginning or opportunity.
This loaded gun
A metaphor for potential danger or power that can be harmful.
We face our fears
We confront our fears, but at times, we may choose to avoid or escape them.
Until we turn our backs and run
Despite facing fears, there are moments when we turn away and flee.
A little unkind
Being a bit unkind is acceptable in small amounts.
Is fine in tiny doses
A reminder that moderation in unkindness is tolerable.
It's time to unwind
A suggestion to relax and let go of tension or negativity.
And try to feel a little less hopeless
Encouragement to try and reduce feelings of hopelessness.
A little unkind
Reiteration of the need to balance unkindness and unwind to reduce hopelessness.
Is fine in tiny doses
-It's time to unwind
-And try to feel a little less hopeless
-But you'll never find yourself
Finding oneself is not achieved by imitating others.
By being someone else
Emphasizing the importance of being true to one's identity.
You've got to let the light inside you shine
Encouragement to let one's inner light shine and be authentic.
Find a way to leave your doubts behind
Suggesting leaving behind uncertainties and insecurities.
End the war that's raging in your mind
A call to end inner conflicts and mental struggles.
And every road
Reflecting on the various paths or choices in life.
We've ever known
Regardless of the path, every journey leads back home.
No matter which way it will go
Underscoring the unpredictable nature of life's directions.
It leads us home
Every journey eventually leads us to our place of belonging.
This setting sun
A metaphorical reference to the end of a cycle or phase.
This firing gun
Symbolizing potential harm or conflict in the world.
Each breath we breathe
Each breath we take may contribute negativity or toxicity.
More poison air into our lungs
Reiteration of the need to balance unkindness and unwind to reduce hopelessness.

Emphasizing the importance of moderation and relaxation in combating hopelessness.
