Couldn't Get It Right
Chasing Light: The Journey of Restless Desires
Lyrics
Time was drifting
Expressing the passage of time
This rocker got to roll
Desire to live a vibrant, active life
So I hit the road and made my getaway
Choosing to leave and escape
Restless feeling, really got a hold
Feeling restless and controlled
I started searching for a better way
Seeking a better path or solution
But I kept on looking for a sign
Continuing the search for guidance
In the middle of the night
Timeframe: nighttime
But I couldn't see the light
Struggling to find clarity or direction
No, I couldn't see the light
Emphasizing the difficulty in finding answers
I kept on looking for a way
Persisting in the quest for a solution
To take me through the night
Looking for a way to navigate challenges
I couldn't get it right
Expressing a failure or inability
I couldn't get it right
Reiterating the struggle and failure
LA fever made me feel alright
Positive feelings in Los Angeles
But I must admit it got the best of me
Acknowledging the negative consequences of indulgence
Getting down, so deep I could have drowned
Descending into a troublesome situation
Now, I can't get back the way I used to be
Unable to return to a previous state
But I kept on looking for a sign
Continuing the search despite challenges
In the middle of the night
Repetition of the struggle in the nighttime
But I couldn't see the light
Continued difficulty in finding direction
No, I couldn't see the light
Emphasizing the ongoing lack of clarity
I kept on looking for a way
Persistence in seeking a solution
To take me through the night
Continued effort to navigate challenges
I couldn't get it right
Reiteration of failure or inability
I couldn't get it right
Repeating the theme of struggle and failure
New York City took me with the tide
Positive experiences in New York City
And I nearly died from hospitality
Nearly succumbing to excessive hospitality
Left me stranded, took away my pride
Feeling abandoned and humiliated
Just another no account fatality
Being just another unfortunate casualty
But I kept on looking for a sign
Continuing the search despite setbacks
In the middle of the night
Repetition of the struggle in the nighttime
But I couldn't see the light
Ongoing difficulty in finding direction
No, I couldn't see the light
Emphasizing the persistent lack of clarity
I kept on looking for a way
Persistence in seeking a solution
To take me through the night
Continued effort to navigate challenges
I couldn't get it right
Reiteration of failure or inability
I couldn't get it right
Repeating the theme of struggle and failure
