The Shining of Things
Echoes of Lost Voices: The Shining Reflections
Lyrics
Take my word for it
Expressing confidence in the speaker's statement or promise.
This never should have happened
Reflecting on an undesirable event that occurred.
What in the world d'ya think
Pondering the cause or reason behind a certain situation.
Got into me
Questioning the speaker's own actions or decisions.
We fire at will
Declaring readiness to take action without hesitation.
And as we watch the pieces shatter
Observing the consequences of actions, possibly destructive.
We find were closer
Discovering a closeness or intimacy previously unnoticed.
Than we've ever been
Emphasizing increased proximity or connection.
She calls my name and I come running
Responding to a call, possibly from a significant other.
I have lost the voice I listened too
Acknowledging a loss of guidance or influence.
And in the blindness
Describing a state of unawareness or confusion.
As my world stops turning
Experiencing a moment of profound change or stagnation.
There's a sadness like I never knew
Expressing a newfound sadness or emotional depth.
But I still see the shining of things
Recognizing a lingering beauty or positivity amid challenges.
As the morning breaks
Commenting on the insignificance of events at daybreak.
It hardly seems to matter
Perceiving a lack of importance in the morning.
I hear a shallowness
Noticing a superficial or insincere quality in speech.
In everything I say
Suggesting a hollowness or lack of depth in communication.
We've played the night out
Indicating the completion of nighttime activities.
In all too familiar fashion
Describing a familiar and repetitive manner of behavior.
To wear the heart-ache
Enduring emotional pain through the passage of time.
Through another day
Facing the emotional burden for another day.
She calls my name and I come running
Reacting promptly to a summons or request for presence.
I have lost the voice I listened too
Reiterating the loss of a guiding voice or influence.
And there's a stillness now
Highlighting a current state of calm or lack of movement.
The rain's stopped falling
Noting the cessation of a natural and cleansing process.
there's a sadness like I never knew
Repeating a sense of profound sadness or emotional depth.
But I see the shining of things
Reaffirming the recognition of beauty or positivity amid challenges.
