Standing Still
Embracing Change: Unveiling the Essence of 'Standing Still'
Lyrics
Oh my love you won't, ever find the things you want
Expressing that finding desired things is challenging without self-trust.
If you don't trust yourself once in a while
Emphasizing the importance of occasional self-trust for success.
I've been standing here, for what now seems like a year
Describing a long period of waiting, possibly for a resolution or change.
Spending all my time on precious things
Investing time in valuable pursuits or activities.
Holding on to see what this might bring
Anticipating the outcome of current efforts or situations.
Oh my love you won't, ever find the things you want
Reiterating the difficulty in finding desired things without honesty.
If you don't tell the truth once in a while
Highlighting the importance of truthfulness at times.
All things come to pass, and nothing here was built to last
Acknowledging the transient nature of all things.
So take your time and try to get it right
Encouraging patience and careful decision-making.
Yeah the sweetest things are the longest fight
Suggesting that enduring challenges leads to the most rewarding outcomes.
Hey, we're standing still
Noting a state of stagnation or lack of progress.
Hey, against our will
Indicating resistance or unwillingness in the current situation.
Oh my love you won't, ever find the things you want
Repeating the theme of challenges without self-wrecking behavior.
If you don't wreck yourself once in a while
Stressing the importance of occasional self-reflection or risk-taking.
Send this far, or save it for a brand new day
Suggesting options for handling a situation, either confronting it now or saving it for the future.
It's yours to do with now just what you like
Empowering the listener to decide the course of action with the current situation.
Anywhere you want to go, it's alright
Assuring freedom of choice regarding future paths or decisions.
Hey, we're standing still
Repeating the idea of being stuck or not progressing.
Hey, against our will
Reiterating the sense of resistance or unwilling participation.
Hey, we're standing still
Repeating the notion of a static state, possibly with a touch of frustration.
Hey, against our will
Emphasizing the involuntary nature of the current standstill.
