Staying Together for the Children
Navigating Love's Maze: Staying United Amidst Chaos
Lyrics
Like an evangelist in the Coliseum,
Compares the situation to an evangelist facing a difficult choice in a challenging environment.
Who has to choose between love and freedom,
Reflects on the dilemma between love and freedom.
Like a hunter in the city of the violent wind,
Describes a person in a hostile environment, drawing parallels to a hunter.
I recognise the end but I've never known where to begin.
Expresses awareness of the end of a relationship without knowing how to start anew.
Our love was once like an undiscovered country,
Recalls a time when the love in the relationship was unexplored and fresh.
Now we're staying together,
Indicates the current state of staying together for the sake of the children.
Staying together,
-Staying together for the children.
-I thought about that sacred verse,
References a biblical verse where Jesus betrays Judas.
Jesus emptying Judas's purse,
Reflects on betrayal and its impact on the relationship.
Now when night falls In this infected house,
Describes the nighttime atmosphere in a troubled home.
A smiling rival instead of a spouse.
Highlights the presence of a smiling rival instead of a supportive partner.
Our love was once like an undiscovered country,
Reiterates the past state of the relationship as unexplored and unfamiliar.
Now we're staying together,
Emphasizes the current reality of staying together for the sake of the children.
Staying together,
-Staying together for the children.
-With your tattoo like a bruise and your eyes like bloodstains,
Describes physical features symbolically, possibly indicating pain and emotional scars.
You fell to your knees in The Church of Saint John Coltrane,
Recalls a moment of vulnerability in a place of worship, suggesting a need for solace.
The patron saint of raising hell,
Refers to Saint John Coltrane as a figure associated with rebellion and chaos.
And of the ruthless universe in every blood cell.
Connects the chaos in the universe to the personal experiences of the individuals involved.
Our love was once like an undiscovered country,
Echoes the previous sentiment about the relationship being uncharted and mysterious.
Now we're staying together,
Reiterates the current decision to stay together for the sake of the children.
Staying together,
-Now we're staying together for the children.
