A Window Opens
A Journey Within: Finding Clarity Amidst Chaos
Lyrics
The window opens I hear the toddling waves
The speaker perceives the opening window and hears the gentle waves.
I think about the soldiers, I think about the interstates
Reflecting on soldiers and interstates, contemplating broader themes.
I would like to leave it all just for a week or two
Expresses a desire to temporarily escape from everything for a week or two.
Maybe I'd see it in clarity, whatever I would see
Hoping for clarity during this break, uncertain about what will be revealed.
It's all so confusing, I don't know where I stand
Feeling confused and unsure about one's position or stance in life.
I could be anything but not yours on demand
Expressing independence and a refusal to be controlled or demanded.
I would like to leave it all if I only could
Expressing a wish to leave everything behind if possible.
Maybe I'd see it in clarity if I'd see anything at all
Speculating that clarity might come if the speaker could leave everything.
But the birds they are singing that sweet and lonesome song
Noting the singing of birds and the emotional tone of their song.
Oh mother oh brother
Mentioning family members, possibly invoking a sense of home and connection.
Take me home today
A plea to be taken home, suggesting a longing for familiarity and comfort.
You may call me irresponsible or even carefree
Anticipating judgment for being perceived as irresponsible or carefree.
But it's not the way I intented to be
Clarifying that the speaker's current state is not intentional.
I would like to stay here and not say a word
Expressing a desire to remain in the current state, silent and contemplative.
Maybe I'd see it in clarity, or I'll see nothing at all
Contemplating the possibility of clarity or the absence of realization.
But the wolfs they are howling that sweet but haunted song
Noting the howling of wolves and the emotional quality of their song.
Oh father oh sister
Mentioning more family members, further emphasizing the theme of home.
Take me home today
A repetition of the plea to be taken home, reinforcing the yearning for familiarity.
