Lyrics

You don't know which way to go,

You are uncertain about the direction to take.

you don't know where you've been

You are unaware of your past experiences or history.

You got close to the sun

You approached success or a high point in life.

And everything begins to spin around you

Upon reaching this point, a disorienting sensation surrounds you.


Looking back on yesteryear,

Reflecting on the past, you recall distinct moments.

you see every steeple pine

You remember various significant aspects of life.

Every loss and every hope,

All losses and hopes, every thought, is vividly remembered.

every thought magnified

Every thought is intensified and prominent in your memory.

And you, you need, you long to be...

You desire, yearn, and require something.

Sleep and dream tonight

Invoking the idea of finding solace and inspiration through sleep and dreams.


Waves crash overhead, you're falling deeper in

A tumultuous experience, feeling overwhelmed and sinking deeper.

Wait until the morning comes

Anticipation for a new day, a fresh start.

and everything within you

Your inner self undergoes a rejuvenating transformation.

Begins to breathe, tell me please...

A plea for an explanation or understanding of this transformative process.

you burn too bright,

Warning against burning too brightly or becoming too conspicuous.

you're drifting out of sight

You are gradually becoming invisible or unnoticed.


Rushing headlong down a hole,

Rushing impulsively into an uncertain future.

into the great unknown

Heading into uncharted territory.

I see a face coming through,

A vision or presence emerging, signifying hope and progress.

I know you'll make it soon

Belief in overcoming challenges and reaching a positive outcome.

Shadows running down the hall

Ominous or mysterious figures and events haunting your path.

But we could run right through a wall

Possibility of overcoming obstacles effortlessly.

I feel a chill in the air,

A sense of foreboding or discomfort in the atmosphere.

the moon and rain don't compare to you

The beauty of the moon and rain doesn't compare to a person or experience.

You'll see, you're almost free, my only light

You will soon realize a sense of freedom or liberation.


Days are bright, drifting out of sight

Bright and positive days are becoming distant or fading away.
