North Star
Navigating Shadows: Hit The Switch's North Star Unveiled
Lyrics
Drifting through the marsh we made it just outside the bend
Progressing through a difficult situation, just reaching a turning point.
No one had sought the cost we all lost in the end
No one anticipated the price, and everyone suffered in the end.
And when the harsh and bitter cold struck down the last of our lone wolves we painted black our faces with their blood and ashes
When faced with extreme hardship (harsh cold), using drastic measures and symbolically embracing the aftermath of tragedy.
Then we stoked the flames and rode the wind
Responding aggressively to adversity, persevering despite difficulties.
Bogged down by the waves we spotted hope in that old lighthouse in the dark
Feeling trapped but finding a glimmer of hope in a familiar place (the old lighthouse).
But its too late
Realizing it's too late to change the outcome.
We're not whole
Sense of incompleteness or brokenness.
Were not welcome anymore
Feeling unwelcome and excluded.
And never the same
Unable to return to how things were before.
We're still battling our old ways
Struggling with ingrained habits or behaviors.
A peace made with a man and his disease
Agreement made despite someone's illness or affliction.
He saw their pain
An individual recognizes the suffering of others.
And He couldn't help but feel the connection
Feeling empathy and a sense of connection with others' pain.
The realization all this was for him
Realizing the significance of the situation personally.
Now he drops to his knees and asks again
Desperately asking for help in a moment of distress.
We burn the woods to learn the worst
Conducting drastic actions to understand the severity of a situation, despite the pain it causes.
It hurts but still we can't give in
Experiencing pain but refusing to yield or give up.
It cant be fate
Rejecting the notion of predetermined destiny.
It can't be moved
Refusing to be influenced or swayed by external factors.
Get over it!
Encouraging oneself to move forward and not dwell on the past.
Just move along and don't look down
Advising to persevere and focus on survival.
Just keep your self alive
Encouragement to stay alive despite challenges.
Your up and moving down the road
Experiencing ups and downs while journeying.
But still can't find those hidden stones
Searching for something important that seems elusive.
No I can't do this on my own
Feeling incapable of facing difficulties alone, needing support.
Cause I need you to bring me home!
Expressing the need for someone's help to find a way back.
All night burns the most of all the worst and best have got a lot to live
Recognizing that enduring hardships reveals the most about oneself.
But they have graves
Acknowledging the presence of both success and failure in life.
So tell me not of the tales that strike our fears
Ignoring stories that evoke fear or distress.
They can disappear
Belief in the possibility of overcoming troubling stories or circumstances.
Cause I'm still battling my old ways
Continuing to struggle with personal challenges.
