Lyrics
Gravel road
A rough pathway made of small stones
Far reaching sky
An expansive and distant sky
No sleep tonight
Inability to rest or sleep during this time
We walk a lonely pilgrim
Walking alone as a pilgrim, a spiritual journey or quest
Parade of Plight
A procession or series of difficult situations
One more step before I yield
Continuing forward despite nearing exhaustion or giving up
My life for this journey
Willingness to sacrifice one's life for the journey
Take my name and carve it on
Symbolically offering one's name to be remembered, whether in a physical or emotional sense
A Heart Stone or a memory
Placing significance on a heart-shaped stone or a lasting memory
Netherworld
A realm or existence beyond the known world
Our tears collect
Gathering of tears, possibly symbolizing shared sorrow or hardship
For the longest walk
A prolonged and arduous journey removed from regular life
Withheld from life
Being kept separate or withheld from a fulfilling existence
From years we left hollow
Years spent feeling empty or lacking
One more step before I yield
Persisting despite being close to giving up
My life for this journey
Repeated willingness to sacrifice for the journey
Take my name and carve it on
Reiteration of offering one's name to be remembered
A Heart Stone or a memory
Reinforcing the significance of a heart-shaped stone or memory
One more step before I yield
Reiterating the determination to continue despite challenges
All of life I yearn to feel
Desire to experience the entirety of life's emotions
One more step for those who fell
Pressing forward in remembrance of those who have fallen
If go I must I shall go well
Commitment to facing an inevitable departure with grace
One more step to fabled farm
Advancing toward an idealized or legendary place
One more step…
Continuing forward with determination, possibly implying an ongoing journey
