Devil's Grass
Finding Peace on Devil's Grass: Inda Midland's Journey Beyond Pain
Lyrics
For so long I got in a chase
Expressing a prolonged period of being in pursuit or pursuit of something.
To find something to numb my pain
Searching for a substance or activity to alleviate emotional distress.
Alcohol wasn't the best
Acknowledging that alcohol wasn't the most effective solution.
I've never really liked the way it tasted
Personal dislike for the taste of alcohol.
Then I tried the healty way
Attempting a healthier approach.
Staying busy keeps thought away
Keeping busy as a means to distract from negative thoughts.
That last, until may
Previous coping method lasted until a certain point in May.
I felt like I was carrying all the way
Feeling burdened and weighed down during that time.
Now we lay on devil's grass
Currently finding solace on "devil's grass" (possibly a metaphor for marijuana).
And I haven't felt this calm in a while
Experiencing a deep sense of calm, contrasting with earlier struggles.
And I haven't felt this calm in a while
Reiteration of the calmness experienced on the "devil's grass."
Surely I want to leave the past behing
Expressing a desire to move on from past experiences.
I want some piece of mind
Seeking tranquility and peace of mind.
Sometimes life can be unkind
Acknowledging life's challenges and occasional harshness.
But I won't let it get me defined
Determined not to let life's challenges define the person.
Now we lay on devil's grass
Reiteration of finding calmness on the "devil's grass."
And I haven't felt this calm in a while
Reaffirmation of the deep calm experienced, emphasizing its duration.
And I haven't felt this calm in a while
Reiteration of the prolonged calmness felt on the "devil's grass."
