Shaped Like Nostalgia
Reshaping Destiny: A Journey Through Time and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
If you could see the finish from the start
If you had the foresight to perceive the outcome from the beginning.
If you could skip the whole story arc
If you could skip the entire progression of events in a story.
If you could go back in time
If you had the ability to travel back in time.
And change all your answers
If you could alter or modify all the responses or decisions you made.
Would you just cut in line
Would you take shortcuts or not follow the established order.
Would you just change your mind
Would you change your perspective or decisions.
Rearrange and reassign
To reorganize and redistribute things differently.
Redefine your disaster
To redefine what you perceive as a catastrophe or a significant negative event.
My misfortune
My personal misfortune or challenges faced.
Shaped like nostalgia
My challenges or misfortunes are reminiscent of fond memories.
The bones of who I am
The foundational aspects of who I am.
Stick by stick and stone by stone
Gradually, step by step, and through hardships, a boy matures into a man.
A boy becomes a man
It's often pretended that the journey isn't challenging.
We pretend it isn't all that hard
We hide our problems or difficulties within our own environment.
Bury issues in our own backyard
We are leaders in ignoring or dismissing important matters.
We're the captains of disregard
Typically responding "fine" despite deeper struggles.
How are you I'm doing fine
I understand because I've experienced it myself.
I can tell you cause I've seen firsthand
It's worth enduring if you can endure it.
It's worth it if you can withstand
The essential low points in life.
The necessary valley land
My personal misfortune or challenges faced.
My misfortune
My challenges or misfortunes are reminiscent of fond memories.
Shaped like nostalgia
The foundational aspects of who I am.
The bones of who I am
Gradually, step by step, and through hardships, a boy matures into a man.
Stick by stick and stone by stone
Small remaining signs of past difficulties or challenges.
A boy becomes a man
New growth and beauty among difficulties or challenges.
Embers in the ashes
Symbolic representation of hope or potential amid difficulties.
Rose in the thorns and
Beauty among hardships or difficult situations.
Rivers in the wasteland
Hope and positive aspects found within a challenging environment.
Peace in the storm
Finding tranquility amidst turmoil or chaos.
Embers in the ashes
Symbolic representation of hope or potential amid difficulties.
Rose in the thorns and
Beauty among hardships or difficult situations.
Rivers in the wasteland
Hope and positive aspects found within a challenging environment.
Peace in the storm
Finding tranquility amidst turmoil or chaos.
