Maple Trees
Trusting Like Maple Trees: Embracing Life's Seasons
Lyrics
I've walked some miles in my own shoes
I have experienced various challenges in my life.
They come untied
My shoes become untied, indicating a sense of disorder or lack of control.
They're rubbing blisters
My shoes are causing physical discomfort, metaphorically representing the pain I endure.
Bitter pills don't kill my blues
Difficult experiences don't completely overcome my emotional well-being.
I'm fighting skeletons and whispers
I face internal struggles and subtle negative influences.
Twenty-seven, twenty-eight
Referring to specific time periods, possibly expressing a sense of urgency or change.
October's just around the corner
An upcoming month, suggesting anticipation or a turning point.
I'm feeling like I bloomed too late
Feeling a sense of missed opportunities or delayed personal growth.
The harvest isn't so good to her
Comparing personal growth to a harvest, and it hasn't been favorable.
Oh to trust like maple trees who yield their leaves in fall
Desiring trust and resilience, likening it to the way maple trees lose leaves in fall.
I want to know what it feels like to give it all
Expressing a desire to experience the act of giving everything.
Cause it's just illusion that I'm losing my control
Recognizing that the feeling of losing control is an illusion.
When I've never had it so there's nothing that I've lost
Despite challenges, there is a realization that nothing significant has been lost.
Mother Nature sheds her skin
Comparing personal growth to the shedding of skin by Mother Nature.
Easy as breath no second thinking
Change should be as natural and effortless as breathing.
So why am I white knuckling
Struggling to let go of something that is not in its season.
To keep the green that's not in season
Maintaining a grip on something that should naturally be released.
Living in a system of surrender everyday
Living in a system where surrender is a daily requirement.
If you know just where to look you'll see the world kneel down to pray
Observing the world acknowledging a higher power.
Oh to trust like maple trees who yield their leaves in fall
Reiterating the desire for trust and resilience inspired by maple trees.
I want to know what it feels like to give it all
Continuing the desire to experience the act of giving everything.
Cause it's just illusion that I'm losing my control
Reassuring oneself that the feeling of losing control is not real.
When I've never had it so there's nothing that I've lost
Despite challenges, there is a realization that nothing significant has been lost.
I've never had it so there's nothing that I've lost
Emphasizing the absence of significant loss in the past.
Nothing that I
Repetition emphasizing the absence of significant loss.
Nothing that I've lost
-Nothing that I
-Nothing that I've lost
-Nothing that I
-Nothing that I've lost
-Oh to trust like maple trees who yield their leaves in fall
Reiterating the desire for trust and resilience inspired by maple trees.
I want to know what it feels like to give it all
Continuing the desire to experience the act of giving everything.
Cause it's just illusion that I'm losing my control
Reassuring oneself that the feeling of losing control is not real.
When I've never had it so there's nothing that I've lost
Despite challenges, there is a realization that nothing significant has been lost.
Oh to trust like maple trees who yield their leaves in fall
Reiterating the desire for trust and resilience inspired by maple trees.
I want to know what it feels like to give it all
Continuing the desire to experience the act of giving everything.
Cause it's just illusion that I'm losing my control
Reassuring oneself that the feeling of losing control is not real.
When I've never had it so there's nothing that I've lost
Despite challenges, there is a realization that nothing significant has been lost.
When I've never had it so there's nothing that I've lost
-I've never had it, there's nothing that i've lost
Emphasizing the absence of significant loss in the past.
