The Place
Journey of Reflection: Finding Home Beyond Midnight
Lyrics
cll you people in the desert what you running from
Addressing people in the desert, questioning the reasons for their escape.
Do you remember from where you come
Reflecting on whether those in the desert remember their origins.
cll you people on the highway
Addressing people on the highway, referencing a potential escape from danger.
Shot through a barrel of a gun
Describing a perilous situation, possibly involving a gun.
Do you remember from where you run
Asking if they remember the cause of their escape.
Have you ever woken in the evening
Pondering waking up in the evening, possibly contemplating life's events.
Before the midnight's done
Reference to the period before midnight, questioning experiences during that time.
cnd you were wanting
Mentioning a desire or need.
Were you found wanting
Questioning whether the desire was fulfilled or left unfulfilled.
Have you ever woken in the morning

cll you brothers in the darkness
Addressing individuals in darkness, where light has never been present.

Reminding them that they are not alone in their struggles.
Do you remember you're not alone
Prompting a recollection of past experiences.
cnd all you sisters in the towers
Addressing sisters in towers above the city, invoking a sense of separation.
Far above the city line
Describing their elevated position and questioning if they remember a past connection.

I know somewhere there is a place
Expressing awareness of the existence of a distant place.
It's just beyond my reach
Acknowledging that the place is currently unreachable.
someday I'm gonna go
Expressing the hope or intention to reach that place someday.
cnd when him my eyes behold
Anticipating a profound realization upon reaching that place.
I'll know I'm in that place
Feeling confident about recognizing and belonging to that place.
I'll know that I am home
Assuming a sense of homecoming upon reaching the envisioned place.
Have you ever woken in the morning
Reflecting on waking up in the morning yet again (repeated).
Have you ever woken in the evening
Pondering waking up in the evening yet again (repeated).
I'm gonna go
Reiterating the intention to go to that distant place someday.
Someday I'm going to go
Reiterating the anticipation of reaching that place someday.
