Eventide
Eventide Reflections: Navigating Life's Shadows
Lyrics
For what it's worth to you
Expressing the value of something to the listener
I saved a spot just out of view
Reserved a space away from public view
Of the city lights
Reference to urban illumination
That we'd watch all night
Shared experience of observing city lights for contemplation
To help us think things through
Using this shared experience to aid in problem-solving or reflection
Things just aren't clear to me
Expressing confusion or lack of understanding
Is the life that's reflected
Questioning the authenticity of life's portrayal
Just a perspective?
Wondering if the reflection is subjective
Of the way that I wanted them to be
Reflecting on desired outcomes
I wanted them to be
Reiteration of yearning for specific outcomes
So here's to the past and
Toasting to the past
Another sleepless
Another night without rest
Another sleepless night
Repetition of a sleepless night
As I come to terms with
Coming to terms with unresolved issues
The things that I can't leave behind
Struggling with elements difficult to abandon
Are you sleepless yet?
Asking if the listener is also sleepless
Cuz I know I am
Acknowledging one's own sleeplessness
Are you sleepless yet?
Reiteration of acknowledging sleeplessness
Cuz I know I am
Repetition of personal acknowledgement of sleeplessness
The rising sun draws near
Reference to the impending sunrise
Another sleepless night spent on this pier
Spending another night awake in a particular location
Looking for something more
Seeking something beyond the ordinary
Than the rocks on the shore
Desiring something more meaningful
To color in the grey
Trying to find vibrancy in a dull situation
Things just aren't clear to me
Restating confusion or lack of understanding
Is the life that's reflected
Questioning the authenticity of life's portrayal (repeated)
Just a perspective?
Reiteration of wondering if the reflection is subjective
Of the way I wanted them to be
Repeating reflection on desired outcomes
I wanted them to be
Reiteration of yearning for specific outcomes
So here's to the past and
Toasting to the past (repeated)
Another sleepless
Another night without rest (repeated)
Another sleepless night
Repetition of a sleepless night (repeated)
As I come to terms with
Repeating coming to terms with unresolved issues
The things that I can't leave behind
Reiteration of struggling with elements difficult to abandon
Are you sleepless yet?
Asking if the listener is also sleepless (repeated)
Cuz I know I am
Acknowledging one's own sleeplessness (repeated)
Are you sleepless yet?
Reiteration of acknowledging sleeplessness (repeated)
Cuz I know I am
Repetition of personal acknowledgement of sleeplessness (repeated)
Things just aren't clear to me
Restating confusion or lack of understanding (repeated)
Things just aren't clear to me
-Is the life that's reflected
Questioning the authenticity of life's portrayal (repeated)
Just a perspective?
Reiteration of wondering if the reflection is subjective
