Cards I Hold
Dancing with Fate: Unveiling the Soul's Burden in 'Cards I Hold'
Lyrics
There is a man by the counter
Observation of a man at the counter
He's just a soul from the cafeteria
Describing the man as a soul associated with the cafeteria
I thought of death as a mother
Contemplating death metaphorically as a mother
Why does he stay by the edge of it all?
Questioning why the man stays on the edge of it all
There is a storm in the jungle
Referring to a storm in the jungle
And every jungle holds a fire within
Highlighting the idea that every jungle contains a fire within
I wanna dance by the pyre
Expressing a desire to dance near a pyre
How's so?
Seeking clarification on the statement
Come, I'll show you better
Inviting someone to show a better perspective
I wanna play with the cards I hold
Expressing a desire to play with the cards one holds
Just suit yourself, find your way through the corridor
Encouraging individuality and finding one's own path
I wanna see what is on your mind
Expressing curiosity about someone's thoughts
What you feel, what you love, what you hate, what you're going through
Asking about emotions, love, hate, and personal experiences
I hold this burden, would you carry it for me?
Requesting assistance in carrying a burden
You know what i've been through
Claiming understanding of the speaker's experiences
I have a feeling death is coming for me
Expressing a premonition about impending death
I know it was foretold
Acknowledging the foretelling of events
There is a soul by the counter
Observation of another soul at the counter
He's just a man from the cafeteria
Describing the man as just a cafeteria worker
And if he talks, should I bother?
Questioning whether the speaker should bother if the man talks
Why do I stay by the edge of it all?
Reflecting on why the speaker stays on the edge of it all
Beneath my face, there's a cluster
Highlighting complexity beneath the speaker's face
'Cause there is more and almost nothing at all
Emphasizing the presence of more amid confusion
I'm just confused by the science
Expressing confusion related to science
How's so?
Seeking clarification on the confusion
Come I'll show you better
Inviting someone to provide a better understanding
I wanna play with the cards I hold
Expressing a desire to play with personal circumstances
I lost myself on the way through the corridor
Admitting getting lost on the journey through life
I wanna see what is on your mind
Expressing curiosity about someone's thoughts
What you feel, what you love, what you hate, what you're going through
Asking about emotions, love, hate, and personal experiences
I hold this burden, would you carry it for me?
Requesting assistance in carrying a burden
You know what i've been through
Claiming understanding of the speaker's experiences
I have a feeling death is coming for me
Expressing a premonition about impending death
I know it was foretold
Acknowledging the foretelling of events
