Looking Back
Reflecting on Loss: Finding Strength
Lyrics
I have seen better days
Expressing a period of personal struggle or difficulty.
I want to understand
Desire for comprehension and understanding.
I learn from my mistakes
Acknowledging and learning from past errors.
But I get lost along the way
Feeling lost in the journey of life.
Ya know I would've gone with you
Expressing a missed opportunity to accompany someone.
Given the chance
Expressing a willingness to take a chance if given.
The distance in either view
Changes in perspective affecting plans.
Has changed all our plans
Plans altered due to distance or changed circumstances.
I held on too tight, and lost every fight
Admitting to holding on too tightly and facing constant defeat.
I'll say I'm alright, and die through the night
Putting on a facade of being okay while struggling internally.
Try to keep my head held high
Striving to maintain emotional resilience.
Focus on the little things
Focusing on small, positive aspects of life.
Looking back just one more time
Reflecting on the past for insights.
To see what the future brings
Anticipating the future with cautious optimism.
I feel this everyday
Enduring persistent emotional pain.
I wish the grief would end
Wishing for relief from ongoing grief.
I know you couldn't stay
Accepting the inevitability of someone's departure.
But I work the pain away
Coping with pain through work or distraction.
Ya know I would've gone with you
Expressing regret for not joining someone in their journey.
Given the chance
Expressing a willingness to take a chance if given.
The distance in either view
Changes in perspective affecting plans.
Has changed all our plans
Plans altered due to distance or changed circumstances.
I held on too tight, and lost every fight
Admitting to holding on too tightly and facing constant defeat.
I'll say I'm alright, and die through the night
Putting on a facade of being okay while struggling internally.
Try to keep my head held high
Striving to maintain emotional resilience.
And focus on the little things
Focusing on small, positive aspects of life.
Looking back just one more time
Reflecting on the past for insights.
To see what the future brings
Anticipating the future with cautious optimism.
I have seen better days
Expressing a period of personal struggle or difficulty.
I want to understand
Desire for comprehension and understanding.
I learned from my mistakes
Acknowledging and learning from past errors.
But I get lost along the way
Feeling lost in the journey of life.
Ya know I would've gone with you
Expressing a missed opportunity to accompany someone.
Given the chance
Expressing a willingness to take a chance if given.
The distance in either view
Changes in perspective affecting plans.
Has changed all our plans
Plans altered due to distance or changed circumstances.
I held on too tight, and lost every fight
Admitting to holding on too tightly and facing constant defeat.
I'll say I'm alright, and die through the night
Putting on a facade of being okay while struggling internally.
Try to keep my head held high
Striving to maintain emotional resilience.
Focus on the little things
Focusing on small, positive aspects of life.
Looking back just one more time
Reflecting on the past for insights.
To see what the future
Anticipating the future with cautious optimism.
Brings
Acknowledging uncertainty about the future.
Yeah
Expressing affirmation or agreement.
Yeah
Reiteration of affirmation or agreement.
Yeah
