Morningside
Embracing the Morningside: A Journey Through Life's Dark and Light
Lyrics
Dark comes rollin' in like a cannonball
Darkness approaches swiftly and heavily, likened to a cannonball.
Rising of the tide it can move us all
The rising tide, a powerful force, has the potential to affect everyone.
It can move us all
Highlighting the universal impact of the rising tide.
As far as you can see spread far and wide
The expanse is vast, reaching as far as the eye can see.
Our own worst enemy from deep inside
The real adversary lies within oneself, deep and internal.
Deep down inside
Reinforcing the internal nature of the struggle.
Nothing's ever over it just moves around you'll find
Emphasizing that closure is elusive; things persist in different forms.
That the light is shining somewhere on somebody all the time
The presence of light, symbolizing hope or positivity, is constant for someone, somewhere.
I'm not stumbling in the darkness
Asserting not a state of confusion but a patient anticipation for a brighter future.
I'm just waiting for the morningside
Expressing the focus on reaching a positive outcome, the "morningside."
Too far down to fall that might well be
Suggesting a challenging situation, possibly rock bottom, but not beyond recovery.
I believe I can get us thru just take a hold of me
Confidence in overcoming challenges, extending a helping hand to others.
Take a hold of me
Encouraging mutual support and connection during tough times.
Nothing's ever over it just moves around you'll find
Reiterating the cyclical nature of life; closure is a continuous process.
That the light is shining somewhere on somebody all the time
The perpetual existence of positivity, shining for someone at all times.
I'm not stumbling in the darkness
Denying a state of aimless confusion, awaiting a positive outcome.
I'm just waiting for the Morningside
Reaffirming the anticipation of a better future, the "morningside."
Nothing's ever over it just moves around you'll find
Repeating the idea of ongoing cycles and the ubiquity of positive moments.
That the light is shining somewhere on somebody all the time
Stressing the constant presence of light in someone's life.
I'm not stumbling in darkness
Rejecting a state of perpetual confusion, waiting for a positive turn.
I'm just waiting for the morningside
Emphasizing the patient anticipation for the "morningside."
The morningside
Highlighting the specific awaited positive outcome, the morningside.
Waiting for the morningside
Reiterating the expectation and patience for a better future.
