Embracing Life's Revelations: A Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
My mission is complete
Expressing the accomplishment of a mission or goal
I saw life and life saw me
Reciprocal interaction with life, mutual acknowledgment
Two strangers in a moment
Describing a brief encounter between two unfamiliar individuals
I'm not alone in the universe
Feeling connected to a larger existence, not isolated
Though I lived like I was on Earth
Acknowledging a past lifestyle, perhaps detached or unaware
If only I'd known sooner
Regret about not realizing something earlier
It's better than never and
Highlighting the importance of late realization over none
I wanna know
Expressing curiosity or a desire for knowledge
Wanna know what it's like
Curiosity about experiencing the unknown
To be out there on the other side
Yearning to understand life from a different perspective
Who I am's always who I've been
Emphasizing consistency in self-identity
Never learned never changed nothing
Resistance to change or personal development
I wanna know
Reiteration of the desire for knowledge
Wanna know who was right
Seeking clarity on who was correct in a situation
In the deep dark lonely night
Reflecting on a challenging and lonely time
All the answers are in front of me
Believing that solutions are evident and accessible
All I have to do is see
Understanding that answers are perceptible
My mission is complete
Reiteration of mission completion, touching life
I touched life and life touched me
Further emphasis on the interaction with life
I hardly even realized
Realization of life's impact, possibly belatedly
Sit alone on a wishing star
Metaphorically sitting alone, expressing isolation
Shoot to kill barely leave my mark
Using forceful language to describe life's impact
So it's been and so it goes
Reflecting on the ongoing nature of life
Forever and ever and
Emphasizing the everlasting nature of existence
I wanna know
Reiterating the desire for knowledge and understanding
Wanna know what it's like
Continued curiosity about the experience of the unknown
To be out there on the other side
Reaffirming consistency in self-identity
Who I am's always who I've been
Resisting change and maintaining one's core identity
Never learned never changed nothing
Reiterating resistance to change and personal growth
I wanna know
Repeating the desire for knowledge and understanding
Wanna know who was right
Seeking clarity on the correctness of a situation
In the deep dark lonely night
Reflecting on a challenging and lonely night
All the answers are in front of me
Believing that answers are readily available
All I have to do is see
Acknowledging the accessibility of solutions
My mission is complete
Final confirmation of mission completion and life's touch
I found life and life found me
Reiterating the deep connection with life
Only took a quarter century
Highlighting the prolonged duration of the quest
It's better than never and
Reemphasizing the value of late realization
Bare witness to these words
Urging acknowledgment of the profound meaning of words
The love from which they were birthed
Recognizing and attributing significance to love
and the lives that give them worth
Connecting words with the lives that give them meaning
Today I will turn to dust
Contemplating mortality and the transient nature of life
Tomorrow it won't mean much
Anticipating the diminishing importance of the present
So it's been and so it goes
Reaffirming the ongoing and perpetual nature of existence
Forever and ever and
Echoing the enduring quality of life
