In Light
Emerge from Shadows: Unraveling the Depths of 'In Light' by Jacob Cook
Lyrics
And I lose myself, it's unforeseen
Expressing a sense of losing oneself unexpectedly.
What's in a fallen touch
Questioning the significance of a touch that has fallen or is lost.
Stepping out on a street
Stepping out into the world, possibly facing reality or a challenge.
But time's just another way to bleed
Time is portrayed as a source of pain or suffering.
Scratching at surfaces
Scratching the surface of one's identity and how to be authentic.
Of how to be me
Continuation of self-discovery and introspection.
So tell me honesty can only exist when there's a lie
Questioning the relationship between honesty and deception.
So then when honestly did you fall so far from this fight
Asking when the person being addressed deviated from a righteous path.
Wake up and seize a moment away from the sand
Encouraging waking up and seizing a moment, escaping monotony (symbolized by sand).
Out of the trenches, let the motions take my hand
Emerging from difficulties, allowing emotions to guide the way.
You're in light
Affirmation of being in a positive or enlightened state.
Watching worlds alive
Observing vibrant and lively worlds.
You're in light
Reiteration of being in a positive or enlightened state.
Set within your sight
Being within sight of something positive or desirable.
It's dusk in the ghost town we call life
Describing life as a ghost town in the evening, possibly implying emptiness or desolation.
Does it feel right
Questioning the emotional resonance or appropriateness of a situation.
To be alright
Asking whether it feels right to be okay or in a positive state.
But with an unworn heart and a gilded crown
Possessing a heart that has not experienced wear and adorned with a symbolic crown.
Hoping old habits will drown
Hoping that old negative patterns will fade away.
So tell me honesty can only exist when there's a lie
Revisiting the idea that honesty relies on the existence of lies.
So then when honestly did you fall so far from this fight
Repeating the question of when the person deviated from an honest path.
Wake up and seize a moment away from the sand
Encouraging seizing positive moments away from the mundane (sand).
Out of the trenches let the motions take my hand
Continuation of emerging from difficulties, guided by emotions.
You're in light
Reiterating being in a positive or enlightened state.
Set within your sight
Being within sight of something positive or desirable.
So tell me honesty
Repeating the question about the relationship between honesty and deception.
Only exists when there's a lie
Asserting that honesty only exists in the presence of lies.
So then when honestly
Continuation of questioning when the deviation from honesty occurred.
Did we fall so far from this fight
Expressing a collective fall or departure from a righteous path.
