Turnabout
Navigating Life's Symphony: Turnabout by Junction 18 Unveiled
Lyrics
I heard the bells
I became aware of something significant
I heard them ring
I heard the sound of bells ringing
The morning mist is always colder
The morning mist is colder, likely influenced by the sea breeze
From the sea breeze screaming in
The sea breeze is intense, possibly symbolizing challenges
And we'll appreciate this haven
We will value and be grateful for this safe place
The comfort is so kind
The comfort of this place is gentle and welcoming
But the air rips when a voice calls out my name
The tranquility is disrupted when someone calls my name
Every hour, every stare is burning deep inside of me
Emotions are intense, with every hour and stare deeply affecting me
Pry my eyes to stay awake
Struggling to keep my eyes open, possibly resisting sleep
Yes I know it
Acknowledging a truth
Don't wanna show it
Not wanting to express or reveal that truth
The closest thing that comes to mind
Referring to a significant thought or memory
We'll walk today and tommorow
We will take a journey today and tomorrow
Sing again our sorrow
Expressing and singing about our sorrows
Try to keep this grin when the fun is getting thin
Attempting to maintain a cheerful demeanor when joy is diminishing
Circus in the classroom
Metaphor of a circus in a classroom, suggesting chaos or disorder
Singing Men at Work tunes
Singing songs by Men at Work, possibly a nostalgic reference
Keep up the laughter when fun shrinks thin
Insisting on laughter even when enjoyment is fading
On my own now I'm scared
Feeling scared while being alone
All alone now I'm afraid to know
Fearful of discovering something while being on my own
I'm stuck being old for good
Stuck in a situation of aging
Time to leave the neighborhood
Time to move away from the familiar neighborhood
Grow old and get a school degree
Growing old and obtaining an education, conflicting desires
It sounds so good but that's not me
The idea of conforming to societal expectations doesn't resonate
Remeber those dreams on the walk home
Recalling dreams during a journey home
Someday we'll finally tour the open road
Hoping to eventually explore the open road
We'll leave you here
Leaving someone behind to lighten the emotional burden
And stop the weight from hanging on
Ending the weight of emotional baggage
We'll walk today and tommorow
Taking a journey today and tomorrow (repetition)
Sing again our sorrow
Repeating the expression and singing about sorrows
Try to keep this grin when the fun is getting thin
Continuing to smile despite diminishing joy (repetition)
Circus in the classroom
Metaphor of chaos in a classroom (repetition)
Singing Men at Work tunes
Singing Men at Work tunes (repetition)
Keep up the laughter when fun shrinks thin
Emphasizing the importance of laughter even in tough times (repetition)
