Million Miles From Home
Wandering Souls: A Journey Beyond a Million Miles
Lyrics
A million miles from home
Feels extremely distant from one's place of belonging or comfort.
I could shoot myself today
Expresses a deep emotional pain, feeling desperate.
Set my soul free to roam
Wishing for liberation and freedom for the soul.
Upon this beach I lie today
Metaphorically lying on a beach, symbolizing a moment of contemplation or rest.
Speeking to the sea
Engaging in conversation or communication with the vastness of the sea.
Dancing with the waves
Metaphorically dancing or interacting with the waves, embracing nature.
Slipping throught your net
Escaping someone's control or influence.
And there's nothing you can say
Implies that no words or persuasion can change the situation.
A million miles I know
Emphasizes the vast distance or emotional disconnect.
Yesterdays frowns were just a phase
Previous unhappiness was temporary or fleeting.
When my sadness starts to show
When feeling down or upset becomes noticeable.
Yesterdays nouns are verbs today
Shift in perspective or understanding of past experiences.
Kissing with the moon
Symbolic act of intimacy or connection with the celestial body.
Dancing with the sun
Symbolic engagement with the life-giving force (the sun).
Blessed is the one
Recognizing the fortunate one who comprehends our origins.
Who knows where we'are all from
Highlighting the vastness or extent of the distance.
A million miles, a million miles, a million miles
Reiterating the immense physical or emotional distance.
A million miles from home, from home
Re-emphasizing the great emotional or physical separation from home.
A million miles to go
Stressing the extensive journey yet to be undertaken.
In the trees I hear the breeze
Noticing the sound of wind in the trees, a connection to nature's elements.
And when my madness starts to show
When one's mental instability becomes evident.
Try the truth you will succeed
Encouragement to seek truth, promising success.
If you're fishing out for me
If actively searching for the speaker, consequences will be seen.
We'll see what's cool today
Outcome or result of a current situation.
'cause if you're afro's obsolete
Using physical appearance to signify aging or change.
Then your skin is turning grey
Symbolizing the impact of time passing, causing changes.
A million miles from home
Reiterating the enormous distance from one's sense of belonging.
A million miles, yeah
Re-emphasizing the vastness of the distance, reinforcing the feeling of being far away.
I hope you find your way, or the way will find you
Expressing hope for finding one's path or being guided to it.
Hope you find your way, your way.
Continuation of expressing hope for finding one's path or direction in life.
