Not the Car
Embracing the Passenger Within: A Soul's Journey Through Turbulence
Lyrics
There is a knot inside my tummy
Feeling a sensation of discomfort or anxiety in the stomach.
There is a pain in my old head
Experiencing pain or distress in the head.
When I think about my problems
Reflecting on personal problems or negative experiences.
Or that mean thing someone said
Recalling hurtful or unkind words spoken by someone.
As I stare at that white ceiling
Looking upwards at a white ceiling, possibly feeling overwhelmed.
All my worries overpower me
Feeling overwhelmed by worries and concerns.
I feel so insignificant
Experiencing a sense of insignificance or feeling small.
While my monsters devour me
Sense of being consumed or overwhelmed by personal fears or issues.
I try to calm myself
Attempting to soothe oneself.
By remembering what I know
Recalling personal knowledge or wisdom.
I look deep inside of me
Delving deep into one's inner self.
To my quiet place I go
Retreating to a peaceful mental space.
There's something I forget from time to time
Forgetting an important truth occasionally.
Love will conquer fear and make me whole
Belief in love's ability to conquer fear and provide completeness.
I am not the car, I am the passenger
Identification as the observer rather than the subject of experiences.
I am not the body but the soul
Recognizing the distinction between the physical body and the essence or spirit.
I feel bleary-eyed and tired
Feeling exhausted and fatigued.
There's a pain inside my gut
Sensation of pain or discomfort in the stomach area.
My physique is out of order
Physical condition feeling disorganized or out of sorts.
By I can't tell you what
Unable to articulate the specific cause of physical discomfort.
While I wallow in discomfort
Being immersed in discomfort or unease.
And hope and pray to get better
Hoping and praying for improvement in health or situation.
I feel my happiness slip away
Noticing happiness slipping away to reveal bitterness or negativity.
To reveal a mood that's bitter
Revealing a bitter mood underneath the fading happiness.
I try to calm myself
Trying to calm oneself again.
By remembering what I know
Recalling personal knowledge or wisdom again.
I look deep inside of me
Delving deep into one's inner self again.
To my quiet place I go
Retreating to a peaceful mental space again.
There's something I forget from time to time
Forgetting an important truth again.
Love will conquer fear and make me whole
Belief in love's ability to conquer fear and provide completeness again.
I am not the car, I am the passenger
Identification as the observer rather than the subject of experiences again.
I am not the body but the soul
Recognizing the distinction between the physical body and the essence or spirit again.
