Not Giving Up
Embracing the Unknown Journey
Lyrics
Well this is strange and new and I wanna know how its gonna go
Expressing curiosity and anticipation about a new and unfamiliar situation, wondering about its outcome.
I've been searching through the corners of my mind to see if anybody's home
Searching within one's thoughts to find if there is a connection or understanding with someone.
Mis-understood but it feels right and I just might, make a simple rewrite
Feeling misunderstood, but embracing the feeling as right, considering a potential positive change.
We say we’ve tried but have we ever really tried, giving this thing all our light
Reflecting on the level of effort put into a relationship, questioning if it has been truly dedicated and illuminated.
I'm not giving up I'm not caving in
Declaring a commitment to persist and not give up despite challenges in the relationship.
My guard is down to let this begin
Being open and vulnerable to start something new in the relationship.
I knocked down the walls I built brick by brick
Symbolically breaking down emotional barriers constructed over time to allow someone into the inner self.
Just to let you in
Expressing the willingness to be open and transparent by dismantling self-imposed barriers.
They say you'll know it when you know but how does one ever really know?
Questioning the certainty in recognizing true love and pondering on how one can be sure.
You say you’ve seen it all before but this is more than a windowless door
Challenging the idea of familiarity, suggesting that the current situation is unique and beyond common experiences.
Sometimes you feel a jaded clarity you feel it oh so fiercely
Acknowledging a sense of cynicism or skepticism but feeling it intensely.
You say you've loved you say you’ve lost it all so your thoughts are still afraid to fall
Listening to someone who claims to have experienced love and loss, yet fear prevents them from fully engaging.
Let them fall
Encouraging the release of inhibitions and fears, allowing emotions to flow freely.
I'm not giving up I'm not caving in
Reiterating the determination not to give up despite challenges or obstacles.
My guard is down to let this begin
Reaffirming the readiness to be vulnerable and open to new beginnings in the relationship.
I knocked down the walls I built brick by brick
Continuing the metaphor of breaking down emotional walls to allow someone into the heart.
Just to let you in
Emphasizing the act of opening up emotionally to let someone into one's inner world.
Well this is strange and new and I gotta know how its gonna go
Repeating the initial sentiment of facing a new and unfamiliar situation, expressing the need to understand its course.
I'm not giving up I'm not caving in
Echoing the resolve not to give up or surrender in the face of uncertainties.
My guard is down to let this begin
Restating the willingness to lower defenses and embrace the potential of a new beginning.
I knocked down the walls I built brick by brick
Recalling the imagery of breaking down walls to signify emotional openness.
Just to let you in
Affirming the choice to let someone into one's life by removing emotional barriers.
You’ve not giving up. You’re not caving in
Addressing the partner directly, acknowledging their determination not to give up and to be open to a new start.
Your guard is down to let this begin
Reflecting the partner's readiness to be vulnerable and embrace the beginning of something new.
You knocked down the walls you built brick by brick
Highlighting the partner's active role in breaking down emotional barriers to enter the speaker's life.
Just to let me in
Acknowledging the partner's effort in breaking down walls and letting the speaker into their life.
Well this is strange and new but we already know how its gonna go
Concluding with the acknowledgment that, despite the strangeness, the outcome of the situation is already known.
