Lyrics
Good cry till the last drop
Expressing the need for a deep emotional release, crying until there are no tears left.
Dry my eyes, pick myself up
Drying the eyes and picking oneself up, indicating a determination to overcome challenges.
Sat down at the kitchen table
Sitting at the kitchen table, possibly a space for reflection and introspection.
Said all of the things I wasn't able
Verbalizing thoughts and emotions that were previously difficult to express.
Put my good book on the top shelf
Placing a good book on the top shelf, symbolizing a conscious effort to uplift the spirit.
Tell my aching soul that it is well
Assuring one's troubled soul that everything is well, despite challenges.
I'm trading out my bedroom ceiling
Choosing a change in environment by replacing the bedroom ceiling with a bigger city.
For a bigger city I can breathe in
Seeking a breath of fresh air and new opportunities in a larger urban setting.
If it's wrong, call me a sinner
Openly acknowledging potential wrongdoing and inviting judgment.
I'll tell God myself
Willingness to face consequences and communicate directly with a higher power.
I know that this road is cold, dark, and lonely
Describing the road as cold, dark, and lonely, expressing the difficulty of the chosen path.
It's not one I chose, and I'm scared where it's going
Stating that the path was not a personal choice and expressing fear about its destination.
I've got to let go of the fear I'm holding
Recognizing the necessity of letting go of fear to move forward.
I'm not at home if there's rooms I can't go in
Declaring a sense of displacement or discomfort if there are places (rooms) one cannot enter emotionally.
I've got to go
Emphasizing the need to continue the journey despite challenges.
I'm gonna run 'till my knees shake
Expressing determination to run until physical strength is tested.
Tell the sun in the East it's a new day
Informing the sunrise of a new day, symbolizing hope and renewal.
I'm wakin' up on all my feelings
Waking up to and confronting one's emotions.
Feeling hope for a world I can be in
Feeling optimistic about the possibility of a better world.
If it's wrong, call me a sinner
Reiterating the readiness to be called a sinner if deemed wrong.
I'll tell God myself
Reaffirming the willingness to communicate directly with a higher power.
I know that this road is cold dark and lonely
Restating the harsh and solitary nature of the chosen path.
It's not one I chose, and I'm scared where it's going
Clarifying that the path was not a personal choice, accompanied by fear.
