Lyrics
All of the roads I've run
All the paths I have taken in life
All of the faces I've left in my wake
All the people I've left behind as I moved forward
Hopin' to leave my mark
Hoping to make a significant impact
Hopin' I gave and I didn't just take
Expressing the desire to contribute rather than just taking
Climbing a mountain many are left behind
Climbing a challenging path where many have been left behind
Chasing a dream and seeing the world takes time
Pursuing a dream and recognizing that experiencing the world takes time
If you were in my world
Imagining someone entering the speaker's world
If you could feel all the things that I feel
Inviting empathy by suggesting the intensity of the speaker's emotions
Maybe you'd understand
Believing that understanding requires shared feelings
Every mirage has a certain appeal
Reflecting on the allure of illusions or deceptive appearances
After the thrill it's off to indifferent rooms
After the excitement, facing ordinary and unremarkable situations
After the lights the darkness is coming soon
Following the lights, anticipating the inevitability of darkness
I've done it all before
Expressing a sense of repetition in life experiences
And I have gone through every door
Having explored various opportunities and possibilities
And I've been right down on the floor and more
Having faced challenges and difficulties
All of the roads I've run
Reiterating the idea of the paths taken in life
All of the years that have fallen away
Reflecting on the passage of time
Light from a distant star
Symbolizing hope and guidance from a distant source
Crossing the void and arriving one day
Overcoming challenges and arriving at a destination
Oceans of space defending the great unknown
Metaphorically describing vast and unexplored territories
Sooner or later all of us head for home
Recognizing the inevitability of returning home eventually
All of the roads I've run
Repetition emphasizing the extensive journey
All of the roads I've run
Reiterating the theme of the paths taken
All of the roads I've run
Further emphasis on the multitude of roads traveled
All of the roads I've run
Continuing to underscore the extensive journey
