Lyrics
Here's a ballad for the broken man
Expressing sympathy and understanding for a person who is emotionally shattered.
Everybody’s got a battle plan
Highlighting that everyone faces challenges and has their own strategies for dealing with them.
But it can’t be fought with no one in the trenches
Emphasizing the difficulty of overcoming struggles without support from others.
And if you think you can escape the pain
Suggesting that avoiding or ignoring emotional pain is not a viable solution.
When the memories come to flood your brain
Describing the overwhelming impact of memories resurfacing and affecting the mind.
You’ll run away forever and ever
Warning against the futile attempt to escape problems by running away indefinitely.
And the wind whispers to you, can you see?
Introducing a metaphorical element with the wind whispering, possibly representing introspection or guidance.
In the shadow of the mountain you are free
Highlighting a sense of freedom and clarity when facing challenges in the presence of nature.
Through the forest on a stallion ride
Imagining a journey through a forest on a horse, symbolizing facing challenges with courage.
Flowing down into the countryside
Depicting a descent into a more serene and open landscape.
You find your fate awaits you, sedates you
Suggesting that one's destiny is found when they allow themselves to be at peace.
If you think about the time you save
Warning against fixating on saving time if it leads to self-destructive consequences.
Then you’re gonna reach an early grave
Emphasizing that rushing through life recklessly can lead to an early demise.
And you’ll waste away forever in silence
Portraying a bleak and prolonged existence if one chooses a path of silent suffering.
And the wind whispers to you, can you see?
Reiterating the metaphorical wind, urging self-reflection and awareness of one's surroundings.
In the shadow of the mountain you are free
Affirming that in the presence of challenges (shadow of the mountain), true freedom can be found.
You’re free
Repeating the assertion of freedom, reinforcing the theme of overcoming adversity.
