NEXT YEAR IN ZION
Journey of Redemption: Next Year in Zion
Lyrics
I remember travelling by your side
I have fond memories of traveling alongside you.
I was your disciple and you were my guide
I played a submissive role, learning from you as my mentor.
Now the choice is made and the wrong is done
A decision has been made, a mistake committed, and there's no turning back.
and I will meet you next year in Zion
Despite the choices and errors, I anticipate meeting you in Zion next year.
Next year in Zion
Reiteration of the anticipation for meeting in Zion next year.
And I remember the drugs we did
Recollection of past drug use, specifying opium and weed.
I was drinking opium and you were smoking weed
Highlighting the substances used during the mentioned period.
There are healthier things I now get high on
Expressing a shift to healthier sources of joy or inspiration.
And I will meet you next year in Zion
Despite changes, the expectation of meeting in Zion persists.
Next year in Zion
Reiteration of the anticipation for meeting in Zion next year.
I have no home and I have no house
Claiming a lack of physical and emotional belonging.
and I am quiet like a mouse
Describing a state of quietness and inconspicuousness.
but I can fight like a giant
Asserting the ability to stand strong and fight when necessary.
and I will meet you next year in Zion
Reiterating the expectation of meeting in Zion despite personal circumstances.
Next year in Zion
Reiteration of the anticipation for meeting in Zion next year.
Now no one has a thousand friends
Commenting on the rarity of true friendships and the transient nature of relationships.
and something starts where another ends
Highlighting the continuous cycle of beginnings and endings.
I was wrong when I said you were the one I could rely on
Admitting an error in relying on someone thought to be dependable.
and I will meet you next year in Zion
Despite disappointments, the hope for meeting in Zion remains.
Next year in Zion
Reiteration of the anticipation for meeting in Zion next year.
Now drink your wine and drink your beer
Encouraging the consumption of alcoholic beverages and the lighting of a deceptive chandelier.
And kindle your candle on the chandelier
Emphasizing the deceptive nature of luxury or appearances.
It looks like gold but it's made of iron
Symbolizing the disparity between appearances and reality.
I will meet you next year in Zion
Despite illusions, the commitment to meeting in Zion endures.
Next year in Zion
Reiteration of the anticipation for meeting in Zion next year.
I have no home and I have no house
Repeating the theme of homelessness and quietness, juxtaposed with strength.
and I am quiet like a mouse
Reiterating a state of solitude and inconspicuousness.
but I can fight like a giant
Emphasizing the ability to exhibit strength and courage.
and I will meet you next year in Zion
Reiterating the expectation of meeting in Zion despite personal circumstances.
Next year in Zion
Reiteration of the anticipation for meeting in Zion next year.
I have no home and I have no house
Restating the lack of physical and emotional belonging.
and I am quiet like a mouse
Reiterating a state of solitude and inconspicuousness.
but I can roar like a lion
Transforming from quietness to a fierce, assertive presence.
and I will meet you next year in Zion
Despite changes, the expectation of meeting in Zion persists.
I will meet you next year in Zion
A confident declaration of the intention to meet in Zion next year.
I will meet you-
Continuation of the confident declaration of meeting in Zion.
