This Is My Home
Finding Home Amidst Life's Uncertainties
Lyrics
I spent some time to examine the stages
I examined the various phases or aspects of life.
But I couldn't stand the thought of it
I couldn't tolerate the idea of anything beyond the initial stages.
Anything other than the first cople pages
Specifically, I couldn't connect with content beyond the first couple of pages.
I just couldn't dig it
I simply couldn't appreciate or understand it.
Someone once told me when looking for answers
I received advice to seek answers not in obscure places but in more obvious ones.
"Don't look in corners just in the spaces
Emphasizing the importance of simplicity and maintaining hope.
Keep it simple, keep up hope"
Advice to keep things straightforward and stay optimistic.
Sixteen was hopeful
The age of sixteen was filled with hopefulness.
Not enough time here, to be bidding it goodbye
Expressing the feeling of not having enough time to bid farewell.
This is my home
Declaring a sense of belonging and attachment; this is the speaker's home.
The light from behind me is spotted and shapeless
The light coming from behind the speaker is irregular and formless.
And that fits me fine
The lack of clear illumination suits the speaker well.
What's fark in their faces looks dark for the future
Perceiving negativity in others' expressions, which casts a shadow on the future.
Well I cna't find my footing if I can't see down
The speaker struggles to find stability without a clear view.
The further along the closer you are
Suggesting that the closer you are to progress, the more you discover if dreams are achievable.
To finding if the dreams are real
Reflecting on the uncertainty when dreams turn out to be unreal.
And when they aren't what you do then
Not expressing weariness with the situation; hence, choosing to continue staying.
I'm not tired of it, so I think I'll stay
Reiterating a strong sense of belonging; this place is the speaker's home.
This is my home
Reaffirming the declaration that this is the speaker's home.
My worry grows
Indicating an increase in concern or anxiety.
My will, it moans
The speaker's determination or resolve expresses a mournful sound.
My spirits aged
Suggesting the speaker's spirits have aged, possibly due to experience.
My youth replaced by longing
The speaker's youthful energy has been replaced by a sense of longing.
My pulse it slows
The speaker's heartbeat slows down, possibly indicating a sense of calm or resignation.
My heart is stone
Describing the hardening of the speaker's emotions or emotional state.
My drive is curbed
The speaker's motivation or ambition is restrained or limited.
Not anotehr word about being grateful
An unwillingness to hear more about being grateful; a possible rejection of gratitude.
