Ground Control
Navigating Love's Turbulence: Guidestones' Ground Control
Lyrics
We are thrust into this world lungs full of water
We are born into this world, facing challenges from the start.
From this heart and from these hands it overflows
Emotions and actions overflow from the heart and hands.
I swore each day I'd find new ways to love you
A commitment to discovering new ways to express love daily.
To turn away the ones with madness on their minds
Intention to reject those with disturbed thoughts or intentions.
Cut and run to the other side
Choosing to escape difficult situations abruptly.
A great escape to another life
A desire for a major change leading to a different life.
Hey
An interjection, possibly signaling urgency or attention.
Don't you give it all up
Encouragement not to surrender everything.
A solo ride into the sunset
Embarking on a journey alone toward an uncertain future.
My swollen pride it doesn't know what's coming next
A sense of pride unaware of upcoming challenges.
When satellites relay the message
Referencing communication through satellites.
Pray ground control decodes it all in time
Hoping that ground control can decipher the transmitted message in time.
Cut and run to the other side
Reiterating the idea of abruptly leaving for a different situation.
A great escape to another life
A desire for an escape leading to a new life.
Hey
Reiteration of the interjection, possibly emphasizing urgency.
Don't you give it all up
Reassurance not to give up entirely.
We are thrust into this world lungs full of water
Repetition of the earlier metaphor, emphasizing the challenging nature of existence.
From this heart and from the hands it overflows
Overflow of emotions and actions from the heart and hands.
I swore each day I'd find new ways to love you
A commitment to finding new ways to express love daily, once again.
To turn away the ones with madness on their minds
A commitment to turning away those with disturbed thoughts or intentions, once again.
