Push Me Down
Beneath the Roots: Finding Freedom in Deep Blue Reflections
Lyrics
Push me down below the warm green water
Desire to be submerged beneath calming waters, seeking relief.
Let me float to the deep blue sea
Yearning to drift away from current troubles to a serene, profound place.
Push me down below the warm green water
Repetition emphasizing the longing for escape and tranquility.
Let me float to the deep blue sea.
Reiteration of the desire to float away from distress towards peacefulness.
I'm tired of this world, I can't take this no more.
Expressing exhaustion and the inability to endure the challenges of life anymore.
Push me down below the roots of the trees.
Wishing to be buried or hidden beneath the stability and growth of nature.
In the darkness they are coming to take me
Fear of impending or ongoing threats in the darkness, feeling overwhelmed and captured.
In the darkness they come to take me.
-In the darkness the coming to take me
-In the darkness they came to take me
-Oh I'm tired of this world
Reiteration of weariness and disillusionment with life's challenges.
I can't take this no more.
Repetition emphasizing the struggle to endure life's hardships.
Push me down below the roots of the trees.
Desire to be hidden or absorbed by the stability and strength of trees.
Going home. Far away from here
Longing for a distant place, anticipating freedom and safety, escaping from agony.
I'll be free. I'll be safe. No more pain
-Going home. Far away from here
-I'll be free. I'll be safe. No more pain
-Going home
-Going home
-No more pain.
-Life, it will no longer hurt me.
Resolution to end the pain by leaving life behind, seeking relief through departure from existence.
Cuz life I will no longer see.
-Life, it will no longer hurt me.
-Cuz life I will no longer see.
-Though you protest and cry
Disavowing responsibility or guilt, seeking escape from blame or consequences.
Wasn't me, wasn't I.
-Push me down below the roots of the trees.
-Oh the sins of your father will haunt you.
Recognition of the impact of parental wrongdoing, acknowledging the haunting effects and unhealed wounds.
Oh the wounds he inflicted won't heal.
-Oh the sins of your father will haunt you.
-Oh the wounds he inflicted won't heal.
-If God is above, he has mercy and love.
-Push me down below the roots of the trees.
-Going home. Far away from here
Reiteration of the desire to depart, seeking freedom, safety, and the end of suffering.
I'll be free. I'll be safe. No more pain
-Going home. Far away from here
-I'll be free. I'll be safe. No more pain
-Going home
-Going home
-No more pain.
-You'll be home.
Assurance to someone else about finding relief and freedom from pain.
No more pain.
-You'll be free
-No more pain.
-And all this pain you're going through right now
Encouragement to endure current pain, believing in eventual healing, and emerging stronger.
Lord I know, I know He's gonna wash those tears away
-I know! I know it doesn't seem like it will get better but Lord
-I know, He's gonna wipe those tears away.
-What you walking through right now is gonna make you stronger
-Than you ever knew, and you'll be free.
-You'll be free
Reaffirmation of the aspiration for freedom and the end of suffering.
No more pain.
