Dangerous Night
Navigating the Night: A Quest for Peace in Troubled Souls
Lyrics
Now some small parts seem right scattered here and there
Expressing that positive elements are scattered in the world.
One smiling face in a crowd that's angry and scared
Highlighting a contrast between a smiling face in a hostile crowd.
Can't seem to see where it doesn't get worse
Difficulty in finding situations that are not worsening.
It's like one good thought getting lost in an angry verse
Comparing a positive thought to a lost amidst negativity.
I try to write Buddha and it comes out guns
Struggling to convey peaceful ideas, but unintended aggression emerges.
I vote for peace and the blood still runs
Despite advocating for peace, violence persists.
I want to believe I can pass happy to my child
Desire to pass happiness to the next generation, but societal issues intervene.
But the truth gets lost and the system runs wild
The truth is obscured, and societal systems operate unrestrained.
Send me someone who has doubts about it
Request for someone skeptical about the current state of affairs.
Who has conquered their own fear and lived to tell about it
Seeking someone who has overcome personal fears and shares their experience.
Someone who won't give up in the frozen rain
Desiring resilience in the face of adversity.
Who'll walk right next to me through the orchards and the grain
Wishing for companionship through various life experiences.
I wake up from a dream of a baby and a blast
Reflecting on unsettling dreams involving innocence and destruction.
Scenes from the television in the blue light it cast
Images from media affecting perceptions of reality.
Seek peace in your own heart sounds true, sounds right
Encouraging inner peace, but the speaker struggles personally.
I'm a troubled soul searching for peace in the night
Expressing personal turmoil while seeking peace.
Send me someone who has doubts about it
Reiteration of the desire for a skeptical companion.
Who has conquered their own fear and lived to tell about it
Emphasizing the importance of overcoming personal fears.
Someone who won't give up in the frozen rain
Request for resilience in challenging circumstances.
Who'll walk right next to me through the orchards and the grain
Desire for a steadfast companion through life's challenges.
Trying to figure out how it all fits together
Pondering the interconnectedness of humanity, nature, and the environment.
Humans and sun and oceans and weather
Contemplating the complexity of existence.
And even if I dream alone on such a dangerous night
Expressing a sense of danger during solitary dreams.
Tryin' to make all these pieces fit right
Attempting to make sense of life's complexities during a perilous night.
Send me someone who has doubts about it
Reiteration of the desire for a companion with doubts and resilience.
Who has conquered their own fear and lived to tell about it
Stressing the importance of conquering personal fears.
Someone who won't give up in the frozen rain
Request for unwavering determination in challenging conditions.
Who'll walk right next to me through the orchards and the grain
Desire for a supportive companion through life's trials.
Even if I dream alone on such a dangerous night
Emphasizing the persistence of dreaming despite the dangers.
Somehow I know I'm going to dream again tonight
Despite the dangers, acknowledging the inevitability of dreaming again.
