Into the Night
Embracing Redemption: Lindsay Schoolcraft's Journey into the Night
Lyrics
Do you hear my calling?
Expressing a desire for attention and connection.
Out your name tonight
Calling out the person's name in the night.
I can hear you crawling
Sensing the person's movement or struggle.
Do you know it's my voice?
Asserting recognition of one's own voice.
I'm ready to take your hand
Expressing readiness to offer support or assistance.
If you're ready to start over again
Willingness to initiate a fresh start if the other person is willing.
Do you know I'm coming?
Announcing the approach, leaving a visible trail.
The snow leaves your trace
Connecting the person's presence to a visceral reaction.
My blood is running
Intensifying emotions, possibly fear.
In a fear I can taste
Describing fear as something palpable.
I'm ready to make a stand
Expressing readiness to take a firm stance.
If you're ready to start over again
Reiterating the willingness to start anew.
You know I'll find you
Emphasizing determination to find the person.
I'm there behind you
Indicating constant presence and support.
We must face our truth
Recognizing the need to confront reality.
I'm calling, I'm crawling, towards you
Describing a persistent effort to reach the person.
Do you hear my calling?
Repeating the call for attention.
To the sky tonight
Expanding the call to the sky, implying a plea.
I cry out your name
Crying out in fear of what might be discovered.
Afraid of what I'll find
Expressing hesitation or fear of the unknown.
I'm frozen to touch your hand
Feeling immobilized at the prospect of physical contact.
But I'm ready to start over again
Ready to overcome obstacles and begin anew.
Into the night the cold burns my eyes
Describing a challenging journey into the night, perhaps metaphorical.
You're lying there, hold on, please try
Pleading for the person to endure and hold on.
