Behind the Waves
Finding Calm Beyond Life's Storms
Lyrics
I'll sail away
I plan to depart or move away.
On a boat made from a napkin leave remains
I'll use a makeshift boat created from the remains of a napkin.
Of a coffee storm it should've been the end
Referring to a challenging situation, likened to a storm caused by spilled coffee, which should have been the end of it.
Not more of the same
Despite expectations, the situation persists and doesn't change.
Behind the waves
Beyond the difficulties, there's a peaceful state I hadn't known existed.
There's a calm I never knew it still remained
The tranquility behind the challenges remains, and the speaker discovers a desire for this feeling.
And it's the feeling now I know I crave
Expressing the longing for the newfound calm.
I'm on my way
The speaker is in the process of departing towards a better state.
Oh I know
A statement acknowledging awareness or understanding.
Wild winds blow
Acknowledging the existence of challenges represented by wild winds.
But they'll only take me home
Despite challenges, they will lead the speaker back home.
And oh I know
Reaffirmation of the speaker's awareness of challenges.
I know it might be slow
Acknowledging that progress may be slow.
But it's the way I'll go
Despite the pace, this is the chosen path of the speaker.
The way I'll go
Reiteration of the chosen path.
I've been running circles chase my tail
The speaker has been engaged in repetitive and futile activities.
I've been sinking ships I used to sail
Metaphor for causing harm to one's own endeavors.
I've been in hiding from the rain
Avoiding challenges and difficulties.
Now there's only me to blame
Accepting responsibility for one's actions.
I've been in waiting for the sun
Waiting for a positive change or outcome.
And it's been there all along
Realization that positivity was always present.
I waited for so long
Expressing the endurance of the waiting period.
Oh I know
Repetition of the acknowledgment of challenges represented by wild winds.
Wild winds blow
Reiteration that challenges will guide the speaker home.
But they'll only take me home
Reaffirmation of the recognition of challenges.
And oh I know
Repetition of the acknowledgment that progress may be slow.
I know it might be slow
Reaffirmation that despite the pace, this is the chosen path.
But it's the way I'll go
Reiteration of the chosen path.
The way I'll go
Conclusion, restating the chosen path of the speaker.
