One Hand Forward
Chasing Shadows: Navigating Life's Tangled Web
Lyrics
He's running for the shoreline
The person is making an effort to reach the shore.
Dark sky and rolling waves
The environment is tumultuous with a dark sky and turbulent waves.
She's digging through her deadlines
She is overwhelmed with numerous tasks and responsibilities.
One busy day from getting away, get away
She is close to escaping or breaking free from her current situation.
They're on their best behaviour
People are behaving in a manner that is expected of them.
Fist clenching by their side
They are holding back their emotions or frustrations.
I'm living life so slowly
The speaker is experiencing life at a slower pace compared to others.
Do saviors favor, the wary or the wise
Reflecting on whether those who save or help prefer the cautious or the knowledgeable.
No surprise, I'm
It's not surprising for the speaker to feel a certain way.
Stuck in time
The speaker feels trapped in a particular moment or situation.
One hand forward, one over my eyes
The speaker is cautiously moving forward while shielding themselves from something.
Tangled in the web of lives
The speaker feels entangled or involved deeply in the complexities of life.
Till that perfect stranger arrives
A reference to waiting for a significant or transformative event or person.
No use in chasing angels
It's futile to pursue or seek perfection or divine intervention.
They're only passing by
Angels, or idealized figures, only briefly interact with or influence our lives.
Do you live each life that you entwine
Questioning if one fully experiences and embraces each phase or aspect of their life.
Searching out the reason for you to collide
Seeking the underlying purpose or significance behind certain encounters or events.
Deep inside I'm
The speaker feels confined or restricted within a particular timeframe or situation.
Stuck in time
Similar to line 10, feeling trapped or stagnant in time.
One hand forward, one over my eyes
Continuing the metaphor of cautiously moving forward while keeping something hidden or protected.
Tangled in the web of lives
Reiteration of feeling deeply involved or ensnared in the intricacies of life.
Till that perfect stranger arrives
Repeating the theme of waiting for something or someone transformative.
Who am I waiting for, suspended
Reflecting on the uncertainty of who or what the future holds.
What am I scared to see
The speaker is apprehensive about confronting or acknowledging certain truths.
Blind to the possibilities
The speaker is oblivious to potential opportunities or outcomes.
All these lives, all those dreams
Reflecting on the multitude of experiences and aspirations that exist.
All those dreams
A reminder or reflection on various aspirations or desires that people hold.
