Doorways and Tombstones
Navigating Life's Crossroads: Doorways and Tombstones
Lyrics
Ever think about how we perceive our lives
Reflection on how we perceive our lives
As entries and exits
Contemplating life as a series of entries and exits
Ever notice how we chose the wrong not right
Acknowledging the tendency to make wrong choices
Confusing what is dead with brand new life
Confusion between what is dead and what is new
I need the clarity now on things I can't see
Seeking clarity on unseen aspects of life
It's a common confusion, common enemy
Addressing common confusion and shared adversaries
I need spiritual adrenaline to wake up alert
Desiring spiritual intensity to stay alert
I need a constant confrontation on what I deserve
Seeking constant self-confrontation about deserving
I need you
Expressing a need for someone's presence
Got these doorways and tombstones
Mentioning struggles symbolized by doorways and tombstones
Stuck in things I can never know
Feeling trapped in uncertainties
A fix I'll never have
Expressing a longing for a solution that seems unattainable
God I know it's so easy now
Recognizing the ease for a higher power to guide
For you to work in and show me how
Openness to divine guidance
To discern the darkness from what is inside
Seeking the ability to distinguish darkness from inner self
Ever think about how hard we will fall
Contemplating the inevitable hardships in life
Yet he picks us up
Recognition of divine support in difficult times
Ever consider how much he foresees
Acknowledging divine foresight and intervention
He pulls us from the graves back towards entries
Being rescued from challenging situations
I need constant awareness of the past and now
Desiring constant awareness of past and present
A feral behavior can lead me on down
Acknowledging the impact of unchecked behavior
I need a spiritual clarity on what's in the past
Seeking spiritual clarity regarding the past
A glowing neon sign pointing me to the task
Desiring clear signs pointing towards tasks
I need you
Expressing a need for someone's presence (repeated)
Got these doorways and tombstones
Reiteration of struggles with doorways and tombstones
Got these doorways and tombstones
-An entry or a death
Highlighting the ambiguity of whether something is an entry or a death
Got these doorways and tombstones
Reiteration of struggles with doorways and tombstones
Got these doorways and tombstones
-Help me discern the darkness from what is ahead
Seeking guidance to distinguish darkness from what lies ahead
