Lyrics
We always fail to say what's on our minds
We struggle to express our true thoughts.
Holding us closer to the things we've left behind
Our attachment to the past keeps us close to what we've abandoned.
Who would think that it would take this long
The duration of time surprises us in achieving certain things.
You're fooling yourself pretending nothings wrong
Denying problems doesn't change the reality; self-deception is futile.
To have it all
Having everything may not bring fulfillment.
and not relate
Being unable to connect despite possessing all.
To have it all your way
Having control but unable to influence outcomes.
Its about where we started and what we became
Reflecting on our origin and the evolution of our identity.
Ever changing but we stay the same
Constantly changing externally but maintaining internal consistency.
Sing it again sing it again until its over
Repeating the narrative until its conclusion.
Sing it again sing it again until its over
Emphasizing the need to persist in expressing or understanding.
Changes wash upon your open shore
External transformations impact your vulnerable self.
Tell me what it is you're searching for
Asking about the purpose or goal of your pursuits.
Your painted walls they always serve you well
Symbolic painted walls provide reliable support.
Supporting you conscience if you ever fell
Your moral compass is upheld by these walls in times of crisis.
To have it all
Similar to line 8, reiterating the challenge of relating despite abundance.
and not relate
A recurrence of the theme of having all but lacking connection.
To have it all your way
Having control but facing resistance to one's desires.
Its about where we started and what we became
Reflecting on the journey from the starting point to the present state.
Ever changing but we stay the same
Acknowledging external changes while internal aspects remain constant.
Sing it again sing it again until its over
Repetition of the theme of persistence in expression or understanding.
Sing it again sing it again until its over
Reiterating the importance of repeating the narrative until its resolution.
