safety in the shade

Seeking Sanctuary: Embracing Shadows for Safety

Lyrics

Do you think I'll see

Questioning the possibility of finding something

Some provision or will I just be

Uncertainty about receiving assistance or being left alone

Left to wander through the suffocating heat

Feeling lost and struggling in a difficult situation


And as the distance grows

Increasing emotional worry as distance grows

Fears of the end start to swell by twofold

Fears intensifying with the progress of the situation

With each pace I take, I can't say I know

Uncertainty about the outcome despite taking action

If my legs will let me go

Doubts about physical capability to continue


I know the path back home,

Awareness of the familiar path, unsure if allowed to return

But will they let me go?

Questioning permission to go back to familiarity


Did God really say,

Questioning religious or moral directives

You are forbidden from everything He made,

Reflecting on limitations imposed by higher authority

And you'll be grasping at the shade for all your days

Struggling to find comfort or safety despite efforts

Just to feel like you are safe?

Seeking safety but feeling perpetually vulnerable


When that choice was made

Realization of consequences following a decision

I heard You walking and my heart became afraid

Feeling fear and guilt after making a choice

What once was beauty manifested into shame,

Transformation of beauty into shame due to decisions

And I've never been the same

Feeling fundamentally changed by past events


Will I spend my days

Concern about spending life pursuing temporary relief

Reaching for the shade?

Constantly seeking refuge from challenges

Your fingerprints remain

Awareness of past influences that persist

I've never been the same

Personal transformation due to past experiences


I'm apprehended by my apprehension (is there a way out?)

Feeling trapped by one's own anxieties (seeking a way out)

In an instant arises more tension (is there a way out?)

Increased stress due to emerging concerns (seeking a way out)

I'm starting to feel overcome, my legs are weak, my hands are numb

Physical and emotional exhaustion, feeling overwhelmed

I know that joy comes in the morning but

Awareness of hope, but uncertain about immediate relief

Is there a way out now?

Desperation for an immediate solution or escape


If I close my eyes and hide

Avoidance of facing truths and perpetuating deception

These recycled the lies I buy will not survive until I let them all back in

Understanding that avoiding problems won't solve them

If I close my eyes and hide

Reiteration of delaying confrontation with issues

I know that joy comes in the morning but

Recognizing hope for a better future, but seeking immediate relief

Is there a way out now?

Repeating the urgency for a way out

Is there a way out right now?

Expressing immediate need for escape or resolution


There has to be a sanctuary of relief

Hope for finding a place of comfort and solace

Look for safety in the shade, you'll find nothing

Realization that seeking refuge might lead to disappointment
