The Sun
Chasing Shadows: Embracing Sunshine Amid Life's Storms
Lyrics
I can't hear my words
I am unable to hear my own words.
There's no way through the woods
There seems to be no clear path or solution.
Leave me on my own
I prefer being alone.
I didn't know where you were
I was unaware of your location.
You were gone
You have departed.
Yeah you're gone
Yes, you have left.
I look outside, it's a sunny day
Observing a sunny day outside.
but where I go the rain follows me
Despite the sunshine, I carry my emotional burden.
Torrential streams ruin the day
Intense emotions disrupt the positivity of the day.
but I'm okay if you're okay
My well-being depends on yours.
Drowning at my desk job
Feeling overwhelmed and suffocated at my job.
Seashells stuck in my toes
Imagery of discomfort with seashells in toes.
Try to pick them out one by one but they're
Attempting to remove the seashells delicately.
So fragile, perforated and thin
Seashells are fragile, perforated, and thin.
They crumble as I pick them out of my skin
Struggling with fragility, as they crumble while removing.
I look outside, it's a sunny day
Observing a sunny day again.
but where I go the rain follows me
Emotional turmoil persists despite the external weather.
Torrential streams ruin the day
Intense emotions continue to disrupt the day.
but I'm okay if you're okay
Dependence on the emotional state of the other person.
I'm catching up but I'm falling back
Struggling to keep up but facing setbacks.
I'm happy but I feel so off track
Experiencing happiness but feeling off course.
We'll figure it out before I walk away
Attempting to resolve issues before parting ways.
'Cause I'm okay if you're with me
Well-being tied to the presence of the other person.
Sun glows through the sky
Symbolic description of the sun glowing through the sky.
See you on the power lines
Anticipation of encountering the person in various places.
In the trees and in my mind
Presence of the person in nature and thoughts.
I'm restless here tonight
Restlessness and unease in the current situation.
You're in the sky
Continuation of the symbolic presence of the person in the sky.
See you on the power lines
Reiteration of encountering the person in various places.
In the trees and in my mind
Persisting thoughts of the person in nature.
Things might be alright
Hopeful outlook that things might improve.
