Lyrics
Give me shadows, give me hard times
Desire for challenges and difficulties in life, seeking experiences that are transformative.
Give me something, I want something I can’t change
Yearning for something unchangeable, perhaps rooted in a desire for stability or permanence.
Give me foolish, just the laughter
Embracing the foolishness and laughter in life, appreciating the light-hearted moments.
I know you want to learn to live without a name
Acknowledging the desire to learn how to live without being defined by a name or external labels.
Because it’s all the "I am's" and all the small talk
Critiquing the superficial "I am's" and small talk that hinder meaningful communication and connection.
That make it hard to listen, make it hard to play
Highlighting the difficulty in listening and playing when surrounded by trivialities.
But we could let the day pass
Suggesting the possibility of letting time pass without being overly concerned with trivial matters.
Watch the feelings fading past us
Observing emotions fading away as time progresses.
Save the words for things we want to say
Advocating saving words for meaningful expressions and important messages.
Come with me babe
Invitation to a companion to share experiences.
You know we’ve got god’s attention
Acknowledging a sense of importance or divine attention in their existence.
In our silent souls
Highlighting a connection on a deep, introspective level.
If we can find the shade
Seeking solace or refuge in moments of tension or difficulty.
In the midst of all the tension
Finding comfort in the midst of challenging situations.
That's where I'll feel at home
Expressing a sense of belonging or feeling at home in moments of tension.
Give me secrets, it’s an old dream
Desiring revelations or hidden truths, possibly from personal experiences or relationships.
We can see the things the mountain doesn’t hide
Noticing things that are typically concealed, metaphorically represented by a mountain.
But the view looks different when you find yourself beside it
Recognizing that perspectives change when closely involved with something.
Sign the papers and wait patiently inside
Referencing a bureaucratic process with a call to be patient.
I will love my pain, you can do the same
Embracing and finding value in personal pain, suggesting growth through challenges.
I think it helps to see the ocean in your eyes
Seeing depth and complexity in the other person's eyes, possibly signifying understanding.
But there’s something lost with every moment we don’t trust
Highlighting the importance of trust and the potential loss when it is absent.
Time will take us to a place beyond the lies
Believing that time will lead to a truthful place, free from deception.
Come with me babe
Reiteration of an invitation to share experiences.
You know we’ve got god’s attention
Repeating the theme of divine attention or significance.
In our silent souls
Emphasizing a connection at a profound, spiritual level.
If we can find the shade
Reiterating the search for solace or refuge in challenging times.
In the midst of all the tension
Reaffirming the sense of comfort found in the midst of tension.
That's where I’ll feel at home
Expressing a recurring feeling of being at home in difficult moments.
