Nobody
Echoes of Longing: The Tale of Unseen Sorrow
Lyrics
When he was young so many looks he never caught
Reflecting on missed opportunities and attention during his youth.
So much love he hadn't bought
Regret for not experiencing enough love.
Seen peering through the pane left out standing in the rain
Observing from the outside, feeling left out and exposed to hardship.
Soaking in his rearing only wishing to be dry
Enduring the difficulties of growing up without the support he desired.
It seems he never knew that no one cut much deeper in the
A realization that emotional wounds from the past are profound.
Young boy who strains his ears to hear
Describing a young boy straining to connect with others.
No one come calling no one to tell his deepest fear
Feeling isolated with no one to confide in about deep fears.
No one to brag his trophy no one for him to make proud
Lamenting the absence of recognition and affirmation.
No one to answer this life that was in doubt
Expressing a sense of uncertainty and lack of guidance in life.
These times he's not forgotten,
Recalling past experiences that continue to shape him.
He swore he'd never be that nobody still haunting
Promising to avoid becoming a forgotten, insignificant person.
All his past that brings his longing for times
Longing for the past, driven by memories and nostalgia.
That all would come from when he was young
Nostalgia for a time when everything seemed possible.
So many times he'd knelt and prayed begging for these present days
Desperation in prayers for a better present and future.
When all his youth was done to be standing with his son
Dreaming of a fulfilled life, standing proudly with his own child.
No one would ever know him no one for him not to hear
Yearning for recognition and understanding from others.
No one to answer his father being near
Missing paternal guidance and support.
These times he's not forgotten and did he ever know that nobody still haunting
Revisiting past memories that continue to influence him.
All his past that brings his longing for all my strength to come
Longing for strength drawn from the past.
From when he was young
Nostalgia for a time of innocence and vitality.
It seems he never knew that nobody
Reiterating the lack of recognition and understanding.
Still staring in at something lost that could not be
Continuing to feel the impact of something lost in the past.
All of this spent preparing harmony
Reflecting on the time spent preparing for a harmonious life.
He'll never be forgotten
Emphasizing that the individual will not be forgotten.
For all he's lived and sought in
Acknowledging a life filled with seeking meaning and purpose.
Flying from wings he'd hide in
Metaphorically escaping from difficulties and challenges.
Hiding his son from when he was young
Protecting the next generation from similar struggles.
And in his bleeding I've been receiving no pain that would come
Experiencing pain but not allowing it to define the individual.
From when he was young.
Revisiting the pain and challenges of the past.
