Journey North: A Soul's Escape from Urban Shackles
Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

He walks out the door

He leaves the place

shuts it tight

Closes the door securely

his bones feel sore

He feels physical discomfort in his bones

It's out of control

His life seems chaotic or unpredictable

A grey city was never built for him

The urban environment is not suitable for him

He longs for so much more than day-to-day routines

He desires more than mundane daily life

Oh, what an awful scheme

Expresses dissatisfaction with a negative plan or situation

Packs his things

Packs his belongings

gets in the car

Enters his car

heads up north to get away fast

Drives north rapidly to escape

Get a way fast

Reiterates the urgency to get away

Reminiscing of what he's missing

Reflects on what he's lost

as he reaches his destination it is the ocean

Reaches the ocean at his destination

and he realizes:

Realizes something important

There's no conclusion for what we built inside

No clear resolution for internal struggles

Tears run down his face

Emotional, tears flow

as the wind hits him

Wind affects him emotionally

and he drowns in

Immersed in a stifling sound

that suffocating sound

Overwhelmed by a suffocating experience

He falls to his knees

Falls to the ground in emotional distress

with a heavy soul

Feeling burdened with a troubled spirit

and no remedy

No solution or relief

There's no conclusion

Reiteration of the absence of resolution

There's no conclusion

-

for what we built

No clear resolution for internal struggles

We only move to fight the storm

Moving forward despite challenges

Make your mark on the world

Leave a lasting impact on the world

edge it into stone

Engrave your mark into the world permanently

This is your home

A reminder that the world is your place

It's your home

Affirmation that the world is his home
