Don't Look Away
Finding Peace Amidst Chaos: Unveiling the Message in Greeley Estates' 'Don't Look Away'
Lyrics
I wanted to close my eyes
I desired to avoid facing reality
And try to pretend that I didn't see what was happening
Attempting to ignore and deny the unfolding events
To what I thought was my safety
Referring to a sense of security that I believed existed
So is it peace
Questioning whether peace is the ultimate goal
That we're all looking for
Exploring the concept of peace as a collective pursuit
Will we find it
Pondering the likelihood of achieving peace
What I saw on the news today
Describing a distressing event reported in the news
Left images I can't escape
Leaving lasting and disturbing mental images
What I saw was a world that's lost its reason to live
Observing a world devoid of purpose or rationality
I'm haunted by what I've seen
Feeling haunted by the disturbing sights witnessed
Reminded of what it means
Recalling the significance and implications of the experience
To take each moment like it's my last
Embracing each moment as if it were the last
So is it peace
Revisiting the theme of seeking peace collectively
That we're all looking for
Questioning the possibility of finding true peace
Will we find it
Raising uncertainty about the attainment of peace
What I saw on the news today
Describing another distressing news incident
Left images I can't escape
Indicating the difficulty in escaping disturbing mental images
What I saw was a world that's lost its reason to live
Reiterating the perception of a world without purpose
And you're still here
Acknowledging the presence of someone who provides comfort
Here to calm the storms
Attributing a calming influence to the person mentioned
You won't let these dreams die out
Expressing the determination to preserve hopeful aspirations
