This Too Shall Pass
Embracing Life's Ebb and Flow: This Too Shall Pass
Lyrics
When it's windy in the morning
Reference to a challenging or turbulent time, symbolized by the wind in the morning.
And your cloudy all day
Continuation of difficult times, with a metaphor of cloudiness throughout the day.
When the night arrives at last
Anticipation of relief as night approaches, but the challenge persists.
It just won't go away
The persistent nature of the difficulty, not easily dispelled.
When you're eyes are sick with wonder
Feeling overwhelmed and curious, yet unable to find clarity.
And your heart is in a cast
A metaphorical reference to a wounded or hurt heart, emphasizing emotional pain.
This too shall pass
An affirmation that the challenging phase will eventually pass or come to an end.
When the city turns to limp
City depicted as lifeless or unenergetic, possibly reflecting personal struggles.
When you're waiting for a train
Waiting for a train symbolizes a period of stagnation or waiting for change.
When she welcomes you with pity
Receiving sympathy or compassion from someone, possibly in a difficult situation.
In half an inch of rain
A small amount of rain symbolizes a minor setback or challenge.
When you're playing at ten thirty
Engaging in an activity late at night, possibly as a distraction or coping mechanism.
And if anyone should ask
A response to inquiries about the difficult situation, suggesting it's temporary.
This too shall pass
Reiteration of the idea that challenging times will eventually pass.
This western call
Reference to a Western call, possibly representing a passing phase or trend.
This too shall fall
Reassurance that even challenging situations will eventually come to an end.
These northern skies
Recognition that even the vast and unchanging northern skies may experience change.
These too shall rise
Belief that positive situations or circumstances will rise again.
This way you feel
Expression that emotions and feelings, no matter how intense, will eventually heal.
This too shall heal
Metaphor of an hourglass representing the passage of time and the transience of difficulties.
This hour glass
Affirmation that the current challenging moment will pass.
This too shall pass
Empty line for transition.
She loves me when I'm lazy
Description of love being unconditional, even during moments of laziness.
And she loves me when I'm wild
Embracing wild and untamed aspects of oneself in the context of love.
She loves me when I'm hazy
Acceptance and love during times of confusion or haziness.
And she loves me when I'm a child
Unconditional love extended even when one behaves like a child.
We figured out how to make a good thing last
Discovery or understanding of how to sustain a positive aspect in life.
But this too shall pass
A reminder that positive phases are also transient, emphasizing impermanence.
This too shall pass
Reiteration of the overarching theme that all things, including difficulties, will pass.
