Weathervane
Embracing Change: Becoming the Wind in Life's Landscape
Lyrics
Well the tree lie down beneath you
Symbolically, nature submits to you, possibly suggesting power or influence.
The grasses bow & sway
Nature acknowledges your presence with a sense of reverence or deference.
The sands rise to meet you
The elements respond to you, showing respect or welcoming your arrival.
The ocean it makes way
Even vast entities like the ocean make way for you, acknowledging your significance.
And you move through your directions
You navigate your own paths or choices, while someone else turns away.
And I turn my face away
The other person avoids facing your direction or decision.
The grasses rise to meet you
In contrast, nature embraces you as you move forward.
The ocean it makes way
Similar to before, the grandeur of the ocean yields to your movement.
Well I too can more the prairies
The singer claims the ability to affect landscapes and bodies of water, suggesting personal power.
I too can move the sea
Expressing the capability to influence even great expanses like the sea.
I'm gonna take that motion
Planning to internalize or fully embrace this power or movement.
Take it right inside me
To assimilate this force into one's being.
I'm gonna rattle at your windows
Intention to create a disturbance or make an impact on someone's shelter or comfort.
Rattle at your doors
Continuing to create a commotion or stir someone's environment.
Rattle at your shutters
Continuing to unsettle or challenge someone's sense of security.
Show you what they're for
Show or reveal the purpose behind these disturbances.
No more weathervane, I'm gonna be the wind.
A declaration to stop being passive or influenced by external forces and instead become a force oneself.
No more spin around, spin around, spin around but always face away
Rejecting the pattern of simply following others and avoiding confrontation.
No more weathervane.
Reiterating the refusal to be controlled by external influences.
I'm gonna be the wind.
A reaffirmation of the commitment to becoming a powerful force.
