Tables Turn
Embracing the Present: Unveiling Life's Lessons in 'Tables Turn'
Lyrics
You're in the present for your whole life
You experience the present throughout your entire life.
There's only one now at a time
Only one moment exists at a time.
We don't get older
Aging is not about getting older but about assuming different roles or disguises.
We're just in disguise
We are not physically in school, but life teaches us lessons.
We're not in school
Despite not being in a formal educational setting, we are bound to learn.
But we're gonna learn
We are currently engaged in the process of learning.
We're at the table
We are actively participating in life's experiences, symbolized by being at the table.
Watch the table turn
Observing or experiencing a change in circumstances or fortunes.
We're prisoners
We are both confined by limitations and at the forefront of exploration.
And pioneers
We are both captives and trailblazers in our respective journeys.
We dot the waves
We create the patterns of our lives by connecting moments and experiences.
Connect the years
Linking the past with the present, forming a continuous narrative.
We rise like flames
We experience highs and lows, akin to the rise and fall of flames and tears.
And fall like tears
Life is marked by moments of intense motion and periods of quiet reflection.
With stillness ringing
In moments of stillness, there is a profound awareness of our existence.
In our ears
A sense of tranquility resonates in our consciousness.
Can you feel?
Asking if one can perceive or sense something.
Feel the nothing?
Invoking the sensation of emptiness or nothingness.
We move like eyes
We navigate through life with a sense of observation, like eyes looking into the waves.
That look into the waves
Reflecting on the transient nature of our existence.
When we go
When we depart, it is analogous to the way we express ourselves through words.
We go just like our words
Our departure is linked, like words connected by the communication of birds.
Connected by the birds
Symbolizing that the sky holds the record of our experiences and actions.
When the sky is your page
Suggesting that the vastness of the sky is a canvas for our life stories.
