Renegade
Renegade's Labyrinth: Seeking Truth Amidst Chaos
Lyrics
I'm letting go
I am releasing control.
To see if you'll hold on to me
Testing if you will support or embrace me.
I'm in doubt
I'm uncertain.
Of what is thought and what is real
Confusion between perception and reality.
In our room
In our shared space.
Between the shapes I thought I knew
Amidst familiar shapes.
An instrument of punishment.
A pillow with feathers like snow
A soft pillow resembling falling snow.
I've come
I have arrived.
To a listening post beyond your lines
At a vantage point outside your boundaries.
I'm all ears
Attentive and receptive.
To gather clues and look for signs
Seeking hints and indications.
But I can't hear
Unable to perceive.
The song you sing while you try to soothe
The melody you sing to console.
Why are you whispering
Questioning the choice to whisper amid chaos.
While the bombs are falling?
Why whisper during a crisis?
Go easy on me
Be gentle with me.
I can't help what I'm doing
I can't control my actions.
Go easy on me
Pleading for understanding.
Oh, I can't help what I'm doing
Unable to control my actions.
Hello again
Reconnecting after separation.
I buried you, where have you been?
Wondering about your absence.
My renegade
You, the rebellious one.
You came back from the labyrinth
Returned from challenging experiences.
Unlike me
In contrast to me.
You've looked for things that could be found
You sought discoverable things.
And the thread
A metaphorical guiding thread.
That guides through black times
Guiding through difficult times.
Go easy on me
Requesting leniency.
I can't help what I'm doing
Can't control my actions.
Go easy on me
Asking for understanding.
Oh, I can't help what I'm doing
Unable to control my actions.
When thoughts
When thoughts prevailed.
Had outnumbered spoken words
Outnumbering spoken words.
In the early hours
In the early hours of the day.
We failed to establish
Failed to establish clarity.
Who was hurt
Uncertain about who suffered most.
Most
In a past conflict.
