Permanent Way
Finding Resilience: Embracing Change and Connection
Lyrics
One light fades
Symbolic representation of a light fading, suggesting change or loss.
Let another shine in its place
Encouraging the replacement of the fading light with a new one.
It's just the moving of colors
Describing the change as the shifting of colors, indicating transitions and variety.
My hands don't play the same
Expressing a change in personal capability or skill.
But they'll try anyway
Despite the change, a willingness to attempt and adapt.
Each accusing the other
Conflict or tension between different aspects of oneself.
You can do what you want
Asserting personal freedom and independence.
But I'm making my own way in
Choosing a self-determined path despite external influences.
Either you will or you won't
Uncertain outcomes, emphasizing the importance of personal commitment.
You'll only know if you count yourself in
Encouraging active participation to discover one's fate.
If daylight breaks
If a new day begins and distance remains, seek shelter.
And you're still miles away
Being physically or emotionally distant from someone.
You should move into cover
Suggesting protection or concealment during challenging times.
I'll try to stay in a more permanent way
Expressing a desire for a lasting and stable presence.
Can we keep to each other?
Advocating for mutual support and connection.
Where you been all this time?
Questioning the absence or distance of someone.
Would you give one more day if you're able
Pleading for more time or opportunity if possible.
I've wondered
Expressing curiosity about the past.
Before they clear one more place at the table
Asking if there's room for one more in a symbolic place at the table.
I've wondered
Repeating the desire for inclusion and connection.
A penny for your thoughts
Requesting insights or feelings, possibly indicating a desire for communication.
So many fall before they reach the shore
Reflecting on challenges faced before reaching a goal.
If daylight breaks
Reiteration of the need for shelter during difficult times.
And you're still miles away
Continuation of the theme of distance and the need for protection.
You should move into cover
Reemphasizing the importance of seeking cover during challenges.
I'll try to stay in a more permanent way
Desire for a lasting and stable presence in difficult times.
Can we keep to each other?
Advocating for maintaining connections and mutual support.
You can do what you want
Reasserting personal freedom and independence.
But I'm making my own way in
Emphasizing the commitment to forging a self-determined path.
