The Great Divide
Journey Through The Great Divide: A Melodic Reflection
Lyrics
Leaving is just a casualty of reason,
Leaving is a consequence of rationality or logic.
When you're breathing shallow beneath the weight of what we don't know.
Struggling to breathe under the burden of the unknown.
cnd we can't go much further if we don't create some oxygen tonight,
We can't progress without creating a refreshing atmosphere tonight, but it's challenging inside.
But the air is thin inside.
The environment is emotionally stifling.
So leave it—just let it pass away with seasons,
Letting go, allowing things to fade with time.
'Cause you need this reflection.
Emphasizing the need for self-reflection.
The troubled torch of introspection and her lessons
Reflecting on personal challenges and the lessons they bring.
Turn warmer when you turn to talk to all the things they burn.
Challenges become more bearable when discussed.
I just wanted you to learn.
Expressing a desire for the listener to gain understanding.
'Cause it isn't something we can change;
Highlighting an unchangeable aspect of a situation.
It isn't something simple we can while away with easy talks.
Complex issues can't be resolved with casual conversations.
It's something that we had, and then we lost.
Reflecting on a lost experience or relationship.
cnd on and on it goes, a tired song on a rusty radio,
Describing the repetitive nature of a sad story.
Between the channels of what we say we think we want,
Amidst what we claim to want, there is confusion.
cnd where we go.
Uncertainty about the path forward.
cnd if I filled your lungs with something more than breathable,
If I filled your life with more than the basics,
Breathe it in & out, in & out, and move along.
Breathe deeply and move forward.
cnd in the morning, I will turn around to take it in—
In the morning, acknowledging the need to let go.
Gotta let you go... gotta let you go on.
Acceptance of the necessity to move on.
So thank you for the golden times.
Gratitude for positive experiences.
cnd thank you for the softened-cornered still frames in my tired mind;
Expressing thanks for cherished memories.
I will pull them out and dust them off in time.
Promising to revisit and appreciate memories over time.
cnd when you're off to bed, remember how we led
Recalling leading together into a significant separation.
Our certainties into The Great Divide,
Facing uncertainties and challenges in The Great Divide.
cnd I loved you still, but I couldn't make it right.
Expressing ongoing love despite an inability to make things right.
