Embracing the Sunshine State Within: A Journey of Inner Light
Lyrics
I was walking in my sleep, and I almost made it out the door
The singer was in a state of unawareness or confusion, almost leaving a situation.
I tried praying on my knees, but I didn't get what it was for
Attempts at seeking guidance or help through prayer were ineffective or unclear.
And somehow I gotta keep holding on to what I know is sane
Despite difficulties, the singer tries to hold onto what they perceive as rational or stable.
But the monster's digging deep, and it's sending signals to my brain
An internal struggle or negative influence is deeply affecting the singer's thoughts and emotions.
My brain
Reinforces the focus on the impact on the singer's mind due to the internal struggle.
Cold shivers down the spine
Physical sensations indicating fear or discomfort.
Time forgets your hand in mine

One more breath, and I'll be fine
The singer anticipates improvement or relief after taking another breath.
In this sunshine state of mind
Expressing a positive or hopeful mental state despite challenges.
Blank stares at empty walls
Feeling disconnected or emotionally distant from surroundings.
All the shadows in the halls will never find me
The pervasive darkness or negativity will not affect the singer.
In this sunshine state of mind
Reiterates the positive mental state despite adverse circumstances.
And I'm never gonna catch my breath, 'cause I'm running up an endless flight
Struggling to find a moment of respite due to continuous challenges.
Every demon that I have to face tries to take me down each night

Now, I will set sail

I'll sail

Hell man, he gets me low, so I don't even know if I'll ever get up again

Maybe I should just get high
