Directional
Navigating Life's Changes: Unveiling the Meaning in Carbon Leaf's 'Directional'
Lyrics
View. a different view
Observing from a different perspective or mindset.
I'm quite through
Feeling completely finished or done with something.
Think I'll go outside and
Planning to step outdoors.
Run around til I fall down
Intending to move around until physical exhaustion.
But my feet are bound
Unable to move freely due to certain restrictions or obstacles.
But I look around me
Surveying the surroundings.
Tall shadows whisper
Tall figures or influential forces indirectly conveying messages or reminders.
What I used to be
Reminding of past characteristics or qualities.
I know. hear it every day
Receiving constant reminders or messages regularly.
I'd like to run a little further
Wishing to explore further or extend one's journey.
I'll find my way
Confident in finding a path or solution.
You. a different you
Describing another person from a changed perspective.
Directions skewed
Instructions or guidance are unclear or distorted.
Your skills aren't
Skills or abilities have diminished compared to before.
What they used to be
Highlighting the change in capabilities.
It's not the same
Emphasizing a shift or alteration.
(but It's new terrain)
Despite differences, it's still a new experience.
But it looks the same
Despite appearances, things remain familiar.
When I was a boy
Reflecting on childhood experiences of joy in being lost.
Getting lost was such a joy
Recalling the enjoyment of exploration and not having a fixed path as a child.
I know. hear it everyday
Receiving frequent reminders or messages regularly.
I have a compass
Having a tool for navigation or guidance.
The map should show my way
Expecting the map to provide direction or guidance.
