Long Enough
Embracing Life's Journey: Breaking Free from HidingLyrics
You were hiding for long enough
You have been concealing yourself for a significant duration
Every lightening you turn it off
Every time there is a bright moment, you intentionally extinguish it
In a smile you come across
In a smile, your true self becomes apparent
You’re alive, only lost
You are alive but feel emotionally adrift or disconnected
Don’t wanna lose you
Expressing the desire not to lose you
Broken walls and yet, you know you’re not in a dream
Despite facing challenges, you acknowledge that it's not a dream
You can hear the air the tears but not the coffee machine
You can perceive emotions like tears but not the mundane details like the coffee machine
Come and walk with me I’ve been on this road of my own
An invitation to accompany the speaker who has experienced solitude
Let me spare you the feeling of being alone
Offering companionship to spare the feeling of loneliness
You were hiding for long enough
A repetition of the theme of hiding for an extended period
Every lightening you turn it off
The pattern of extinguishing light persists
In a smile you come across
In a smile, the true self is revealed again
You’re alive, only lost
Alive but feeling lost emotionally
Don’t wanna lose you
Reiterating the fear of losing the person
Don’t wanna lose you
Emphasizing the reluctance to lose the person
You can move and yet it’s like you’re stuck in the sand
Despite the ability to move, there's a sense of being stuck in a difficult situation
I’m not sure but maybe you’re given a hand
Suggesting that someone might be extending a helping hand
I’m a look in the mirror, I’m not different at all
The speaker sees their reflection and realizes they are not fundamentally different
Let me spare you the fear of taking the fall
Offering support to prevent the fear of a potential failure or downfall
You were hiding for long enough
Repetition of the idea of hiding, indicating a prolonged struggle
Every lightening you turn it off
The recurrent theme of intentionally turning off moments of brightness
In a smile you come across
Reiterating the revelation of the true self in a smile
You’re alive, only lost
Feeling alive but still emotionally lost
Don’t wanna lose you
Expressing the strong desire not to lose the person
Could never lose you
A reassurance that losing the person is not a possibility
It’s a long way from home
Acknowledging the considerable distance from a place of comfort or familiarity
But I knew
Despite the distance, there is a sense of knowing and understanding
I’m a long way from home
Reiterating the theme of being far away from home
In a loop, I think of you
In a repetitive cycle, thoughts of the person persist in the speaker's mind
I’m smiling too
The speaker is smiling, possibly indicating a positive and hopeful outlook
