Echoes of Resilience: A Melodic Journey through Life's Trials
Lyrics
Where she collapses into the shore
Reference to a woman collapsing on the shore.
Pump the byproduct and ask her for more
Extracting byproducts and requesting more from her.
There a man lay dying in ice
Describing a man dying in icy conditions.
Gasket hair busted out
Hair from a gasket bursting out, suggesting a violent event.
Pinned down like a vice
Someone restrained or held firmly, likened to a vice.
As the sun sank into repose,
The sun setting peacefully.
A friend knelt down
A friend kneeling down to hear the dying words of the man in line 3.
Listened into his dying words as he froze.
Listening to the dying words as the man freezes.
Tell my love don't mourn too intense
A dying request to not mourn intensely for the speaker's love.
I'm going down to her great good expense
The speaker is going down, incurring great expense for love.
Now all the air is quiet and still
After the event, the atmosphere is calm and silent.
Wish I was back home on the [nell?] of the hill
Expressing a desire to be back home on the hill.
Don't think I won't try
An assertion that the speaker won't give up, even when closing eyes.
When I close my eyes
A commitment to survival despite challenges.
Whatever the people will drive
A determination to endure whatever difficulties people bring.
I swear I will survive
Reaffirming the will to survive.
All of my friends my enemies too
Mention of friends and enemies living in the shadows of the dirty few.
Live in the shadows of the dirtiest few
Living in the aftermath of destructive actions.
Burns the land and it's paper to ruin
Describing the destruction of the land and its consequences.
While winds always whistling an infinite tune
A poetic reference to constant, endless winds.
Don't think I wont try
Reiteration of determination despite closing eyes.
When I close my eyes
Commitment to surviving, even in moments of darkness.
Whatever the people will drive
Willingness to face challenges posed by people.
I swear I will be alive
Reaffirming the commitment to being alive.
Don't think I won't try
Repetition of the determination to try.
When I close my eyes
Commitment to survival even when closing eyes.
Whatever the people will drive
Willingness to face challenges from people.
I swear I will be alive
Repetition emphasizing the strong resolve to be alive.
I swear I will be alive
-I swear I will be alive
-I swear I will be alive
-I swear I will be alive
-Now "So long," he whispered softly
The dying man whispering a farewell and closing his eyes.
Closing his eyelids with his face turning grey.
-When the workers cleaned up the spill
Workers cleaning up a spill after the incident.
Sent the man home to his nell in the hill.
The man being sent home to his resting place on the hill.
