Body
Navigating Life's Waves: A Journey of Self-Judgment and Infinite Possibilities
Lyrics
My ship rides harsh waves
Expressing the difficulties faced like navigating rough waves
You watch me juggling
Someone observing the struggle of managing conflicting emotions
My heavy love and disdain
The challenge of balancing deep affection and strong dislike
I judge me harshly
Being overly critical and judgmental towards oneself
Ridiculously
Exaggeratedly, in an unreasonable manner
The journey's hard, but it's ok
Accepting the toughness of the journey despite difficulties
When you said to me
Reference to someone making an encouraging statement
Man, this world is full of possibilities
Notable optimism about the world's possibilities
Were you talking to me
Questioning if the optimistic words were directed at oneself
Were you talking to me
-I've got this body
Acknowledging ownership and existence in one's physical form
This body without
Recognition of lacking a fundamental benefit of belief or trust in oneself
Basic benefit of the doubt
Observing how someone treats oneself with care
I watch you treat me so delicately
Accepting deserving consequences if failure happens
But if I fall, I deserve it
Reiteration of a previous encouraging statement
When you said to me
Repetition of doubt about the encouraging words being meant for oneself
Man, this world is full of possibilities
Restating belief in the vast opportunities in the world
Were you talking to me
Continued questioning if the optimistic words were meant for oneself
Were you talking to me
-My body just might be a temple, ok
Recognizing the potential significance of one's body but with conflicting feelings of wanting to escape it
But I spend my days trying to wish it away
Expressing a desire to be rid of the body despite its potential importance
I look through the hole in the hagstone and see
Metaphorically observing a small but powerful change
The flick of the butterfly's wing that changes everything
Noticing the impactful ripple effect of small actions or events
When you said to me
Restating the sentiment of the world's abundant possibilities
Man, this world is full of possibilities
Reiterating uncertainty if the positive outlook was directed at oneself
Were you talking to me
-Were you talking to me
Continued uncertainty about the intended recipient of encouraging words
