Floating Anchor
Breaking Chains: Rise Above Despair with Deep as Ocean's 'Floating Anchor'
Lyrics
How did you feel when you met with failure?
Reflecting on emotions experienced during a failure
Empty inside and don't know how to fill the void
Feeling empty and struggling to fill the emotional void
And you lived every single moment
Living through every moment after the failure
Trying to move on but your feet were paralyzed
Attempting to move forward but feeling stuck or paralyzed
Anchored
Metaphorical reference to being anchored or held down
To the ground
Feeling grounded and unable to progress
Stuck here
Expressing a sense of being stuck or trapped
Anchored
Reiteration of feeling anchored or held back
Deadweight
Describing the weight of the emotional burden
I can't escape
Feeling unable to break free or escape
Break down your walls
Encouragement to break down emotional barriers
You are in control
Empowerment message, asserting control over one's life
Of your own destiny
Emphasizing personal control over destiny
Break down your walls
Reiterating the need to break down internal walls
You built inside of you
Acknowledging self-imposed limitations
Torn down your limits in your head
Breaking down mental barriers and constraints
Find a way to feel alive
Seeking a way to feel alive and motivated
Your best reason to survive
Identifying a reason to survive and persevere
Fight the war you have inside
Encouraging inner strength to fight personal battles
No matter how long you have to try
Emphasizing the importance of persistent effort
If you don't try you will never succeed
Highlighting the necessity of trying to achieve success
Standing still is a passive acceptance
Staying still is accepting defeat passively
Of the defeat, so pick your guns up
Accepting defeat is acknowledging it without resistance
Aim what you want and take your best shot
Encouraging proactive action and determination
Anchored
Reiteration of feeling anchored or held back
To the ground
Reemphasizing a sense of being grounded
Stuck here
Reiterating a feeling of being stuck or trapped
Anchored
Reiteration of feeling anchored or held back
Deadweight
Describing the weight of the emotional burden
You can escape
Contradiction, suggesting an ability to escape
I saw the fire burning in your eyes
Observing determination and passion in someone's eyes
And like a torch you light the path of my rise
Comparing the person to a torch lighting the way
I was loosing myself in my ineptitude
Acknowledging personal struggles and shortcomings
Give me your hand to get me back on track
Seeking support and assistance to get back on track
You rise my anchor so I can move ahead
Metaphorically lifting the anchor with support
I let the wind blown all my sails
Letting go of inhibitions without regrets or fears
With no regret, with no fear, no doubt
Facing challenges boldly and without hesitation
I turned my anchors into my saving floats
Transforming past obstacles into positive aspects
You rise my anchor so I can move ahead
Metaphorically lifting the anchor with support
I let the wind blown all my sails
Letting go of inhibitions without regrets or fears
With no regret, with no fear, no doubt
Facing challenges boldly and without hesitation
I turned my anchors into my saving floats
Transforming past obstacles into positive aspects
