Lyrics

What man is wise under the sun

Reflects on the rarity of true wisdom among people.

Does his face shine to look upon

Questions whether a wise person's demeanor is visibly radiant.

My heart is home to civil war

Expresses inner conflict or emotional turmoil within the speaker's heart.

I've run ten thousand times before

Indicates a history of fleeing or avoiding challenges or issues.


But I will not escape the pain this time

Acknowledges that the speaker cannot avoid experiencing pain this time.

I will have to stand and choose a side

Recognizes the necessity for the speaker to make a difficult choice.

It was so much easier before to just decide, but now

Compares the current decision-making process unfavorably to the past.


Love has wrecked me

States that the emotion of love has had a profound and negative impact on the speaker.

Love has torn me in two

Reiterates the divisive and painful nature of the impact of love.

Love has wrecked me, since I loved you

Emphasizes the enduring negative consequences of loving someone specific.


Give me the days when we were young

Expresses a desire for a return to the carefree days of youth.

Remind me of the songs we sung

Requests a reminder of the joyous moments from the past.

We listened to the wind go where it wanted, we couldn't contain it

Recalls a time when the speaker and others were free-spirited and unrestrained.

Our shadows stretched behind and couldn't catch us, our futures before us

Describes a time when the speaker's potential and future were limitless.


We can not return to youth this time

Acknowledges the impossibility of returning to the innocence of youth.

All the innocence we left behind

Reflects on the loss of innocence and the consequences of growing up.

I was so naive to think that I could ever hide, but now

Admits to the naivety of thinking that certain aspects of life could be concealed.


I cannot sleep, not day or night

Describes a state of restlessness and inability to find peace.

I cannot rest within this fight

Expresses an ongoing struggle or conflict that disturbs the speaker's rest.

This sinner's giving up tonight

Suggests a moment of surrender or resignation in the face of inner turmoil.
