Embracing Liberation: A Journey Beyond Tears
Lyrics
This room has a window that calls
This room symbolizes a space or a situation that beckons.
That tells you you've been there before
Suggests familiarity or a sense of déjà vu about the place.
A sundial in the sky
Compares time to a sundial in the sky, perhaps highlighting its cyclical nature.
The only reminder of the days passing by
Emphasizes the passing of time as the sole reminder of days gone by.
You, my old solitary friend
Refers to someone close who has been solitary or alone for a while.
For you I would wait 'til the end
Expresses a willingness to wait indefinitely for this solitary friend.
Just running down the time
Indicates the passage of time, waiting for something to happen.
With all of our yesterdays left far behind
Suggests leaving past experiences far behind in the past.
Your debts have all been paid
Metaphorically indicates that all obligations or dues have been settled.
So go on and walk away
Encourages moving forward and leaving the past behind.
I hope out there you'll stay on

Where we won't cry no more
Refers to a place or state where emotions won't overflow in tears.
The truth turns the needle through north
Suggests truth guiding one's direction, akin to a compass needle pointing north.
And trusts us to follow its course
Belief in the truth's guidance and the expectation to follow its path.
But sometimes it's the lie
Reflects on how sometimes falsehood or deception can take precedence.
That takes the day trembling in all its denial
Describes how a lie, despite being false, can hold power and make one tremble in denial.
Now only one ruling is left
Implies a situation where only one rule remains or one truth prevails.
When no one believes they'll be next
Suggests a lack of belief in one's safety or security in the future.
And trails too far to find
Implies a difficult path or journey ahead that seems distant or hard to traverse.
If every damn stranger's got something to hide

But guards are overthrown
Indicates a collapse of protective barriers or defenses.
The way is wide open for all who'd go
Suggests an open path for those willing to venture forward.
It's never been so close now
Highlights the closeness or proximity of something desired or sought after.
And there we won't cry no more
Refers again to a place where emotions won't lead to tears.
And there we won't cry no more

There we won't cry no more
Repetition emphasizing the absence of crying in this particular place or state.
There we won't cry no more

There we won't cry no more
