Stare at the Sun
Chasing Shadows: Embracing the Painful Beauty of Life
Lyrics
You'll always be the one true light
You will always be the guiding light, the one constant truth.
Shadow follows and we fall behind
Challenges and difficulties (shadow) accompany us as we struggle to keep up.
And the cool rain falls like tears
The soothing rain falls, resembling tears, possibly symbolizing emotional release.
From my eyes
This line is open to interpretation; tears could represent emotional pain or cleansing.
You have a dream
You possess a dream and a mind that is constantly seeking, never at rest.
And a restless mind
A state of constant restlessness and the pursuit of aspirations.
Things we bury
We conceal or bury aspects of our lives, possibly past experiences or emotions.
The things we hide
There are things we keep hidden, avoiding acknowledgment or discussion.
And we stare at the sun
We face challenges head-on, confronting difficulties with determination.
No fear
We confront adversities without fear, displaying courage in the face of challenges.
It burns
The sun, metaphorically representing challenges, burns, signifying the difficulty we endure.
It hurts
It causes pain, but the experience is transformative and necessary.
But you know
Despite the pain, we are aware of who or what we are committed to.
Who we serve
Reiteration of commitment to a cause or belief, even in the face of adversity.
It burns
The repetition emphasizes the enduring and challenging nature of the commitment.
It hurts
Despite the pain, the experience is a necessary and transformative part of the journey.
But you know
Recognition of the commitment and the purpose behind enduring challenges.
Who we serve
Reiteration of the steadfast commitment and service despite the hardships.
And the cool rain calms
The calming rain symbolizes relief, providing solace to the restless mind.
Your restless mind
The restless mind finds peace in the soothing rain, suggesting a sense of resolution.
