Endure and Survive
Enduring Echoes: Navigating Life's Goodbyes with Joseph Gallo
Lyrics
Yesterday
Reflecting on the past, looking back at yesterday.
I thought I dealt with pain
Believed I had coped with pain.
I put out the candle now but it just ain't the same
Extinguished a metaphorical candle, but things have changed.
I've packed my bags
Packed belongings, indicating a journey or departure.
Started on the path
Embarked on a new path or phase in life.
For friends I've set, for lovers I've wept
Expressing emotional connections to friends and lovers.
I can't help but look back
Compelled to reminisce about the past.
We lived our life but it's time for goodbye
Summarizing a shared life, signaling a farewell.
For we have got quite a bit of time
Acknowledging the significant amount of time spent together.
We endure and survive
Emphasizing resilience and perseverance in challenging times.
Sometimes I think of what we would be
Contemplating what could have been in the relationship.
Although it wasn't what I had in mind
Recognizing that reality didn't align with expectations.
We were glad to have each other in our lives
Grateful for the shared presence in each other's lives.
Oooh
Expression of emotion, possibly a sigh or reflection.
All that time
Realizing the lack of boundaries or limits in the past.
I never drew the line
Not defining limits in the relationship.
The steps we took could be read like a book
Actions taken are open to interpretation, like a story in a book.
We thought everything was fine
Assumed everything was fine despite subsequent challenges.
Although now we cry
Present difficulties contrasted with past contentment.
We're gonna get by
Remaining optimistic about overcoming challenges.
We thought we were our freedom
Believed they possessed freedom during questionable actions.
When we were committing the crime
Reflecting on past actions that may have been wrong.
We lived our life but it's time for goodbye
Reiterating the need to say goodbye despite shared time.
For we have got quite a bit of time
Acknowledging the abundance of time in the past.
We endure and survive
Reinforcing the theme of enduring and surviving.
Sometimes I think of what we would be
Reflecting on what could have been in the relationship.
Although it wasn't what I had in mind
Acknowledging that reality didn't align with expectations.
We were glad to have each other in our lives
Expressing gratitude for the shared experience in the past.
We lived our life but it's time for goodbye
Reiterating the need to say goodbye despite shared time.
For we have got quite a bit of time
Acknowledging the abundance of time in the past.
We endure and survive
Reinforcing the theme of enduring and surviving.
Sometimes I think of what we would be
Reflecting on what could have been in the relationship.
Although it wasn't what I had in mind
Acknowledging that reality didn't align with expectations.
We were glad to have each other
Expressing gratitude for the shared experience.
In our lives
Final emphasis on the shared presence in each other's lives.
