Lighthouse Keeper
Journey Through Darkness: Seeking the Light
Lyrics
I raise my sail into the wind
I set my sail in the direction of the wind.
This tiny vessel headed towards the sun
This small boat is moving toward the sun.
Each morning like the one before
Every morning is similar to the one before.
I know my journey's only just begun
Despite the familiarity, I acknowledge that my journey is just starting.
I struggle and I take
I face challenges and endure the pain of heartbreak as if it is a goal.
The pain of heartbreak like it's the goal
Enduring heartbreak is a challenging aspect of my journey.
I just got to find a way
I am determined to find a way to make everything okay within myself.
To make it all okay inside my soul
Seeking inner peace is a crucial goal for me.
Ooh ooh Lighthouse Keeper
An expression of reaching out to a metaphorical lighthouse keeper for guidance.
I'm tryin' to find my way through the night
Struggling to navigate through the challenges of the night.
I can see the waves
Aware of the difficulties (waves), but struggling to find clarity or resolution.
But I just can't seem to find the light ooh ooh ooh
The repetition emphasizes the struggle and the elusive nature of finding light.
Life is such a gift
Life is considered a precious gift.
But sometimes it just carries on like a curse
However, it can feel burdensome and challenging like a curse at times.
It can take a turn
Life can deviate from planned expectations.
But rarely does it go the way that I rehearsed
It rarely follows the rehearsed or expected path.
But I know I didn't come this far
Despite challenges, the speaker is determined not to let the journey fall apart.
To tear this ship apart upon the shore
A commitment to keep the metaphorical ship intact despite difficulties.
So I'll just stay the course
The decision to stay on course without regret.
Look ahead with no remorse like before
Looking forward without dwelling on past mistakes.
Ooh Ooh Lighthouse Keeper
A repeated call for guidance from the lighthouse keeper in the metaphorical journey.
I'm tryin' to find my way through the night
Continued struggle to navigate through the challenges of the night.
I can see the waves
Recognizing the difficulties (waves), yet struggling to find the metaphorical light.
But I just can't seem to find the light ooh ooh ooh
Emphasizing the persistent challenge of finding clarity or resolution.
I give it all but all I taste
Despite giving my all, all I experience is the taste of salt on my tired face.
Is salt upon my weary face
A representation of the hardships faced during the journey.
And I know there's got to be more
An acknowledgment that there must be more to the journey than the current challenges.
Ooh Ooh Lighthouse Keeper
A repeated call for guidance from the lighthouse keeper, emphasizing the struggle.
I'm tryin to find my way through the night
Continued effort to navigate through the challenges of the night.
I can see the waves
Acknowledging the difficulties (waves) but struggling to find the metaphorical light.
But I just can't seem to find the light ooh ooh ooh
Repetition reinforces the ongoing challenge of finding clarity or resolution.
There's got to
An expression of the belief that there must be more to the journey.
There's got to be more
A reaffirmation of the belief that there is a deeper meaning or purpose yet to be discovered.
