Lighthouse
Illuminate Your Path: Lighthouse of Love and Loss
Lyrics
Some day you'll see me shine through
Anticipation of a future moment where the speaker's brilliance will be evident.
One day you'll let me guid you
An expectation that one day the listener will allow the speaker to guide them.
There's always something in the water these days
An observation of a pervasive tension or trouble symbolized by "something in the water."
I feel like this is the biggest mistake
The speaker feels that a significant error is being made in the current situation.
Someday you'll let me shine through
Reiteration of the hope that the speaker's brilliance will be acknowledged in the future.
I won't let you lead our hearts into the grave
A commitment not to let the listener lead both of them into a negative outcome.
Let's just let the lighthouse illuminate the way
Suggesting using the metaphorical lighthouse to guide them through challenges.
You loose your thinking when the light's down low
When faced with darkness, rational thinking is compromised.
You get impatient with no where to go
Impatience arises when there is no clear direction or purpose.
You loose your head and turn me inside out
The emotional toll of losing composure and being turned inside out by the situation.
I really hope that you are happy now
The speaker expresses a desire for the listener's happiness despite the challenges.
You know one day i'll love you
An acknowledgment that love will come in the future.
But right now that just isn't true
Currently, the speaker does not feel love for the listener.
There's always something in my brain that's fighting
An internal struggle or conflict within the speaker's mind is always present.
Water's rising, sun is stuck on the horizon
Describing a challenging situation with rising tension and stagnation.
You know one day i'll love you
Reiteration of the eventual hope for love in the future.
Right away i have to say i don't think it's enough
Expressing doubt that the current situation or effort is sufficient.
Fire away it's not too late i think we've had enough
Suggesting it's not too late to take action and expressing a sense of having endured enough.
You loose your thinking when the light's down low
Repetition of the impact of low light on cognitive functions.
You get impatient with no where to go
Impatience arises again when there is no clear direction or purpose.
You loose your head and turn me inside out
Reiteration of the emotional toll of losing composure and being turned inside out.
I really hope that you are happy now
Reaffirming the speaker's hope for the listener's happiness.
You loose your thinking when the light's down low
Repetition of the impact of low light on cognitive functions.
You get impatient with no where to go
Impatience arises once more when there is no clear direction or purpose.
You loose your head and turn me inside out
Reiteration of the emotional toll of losing composure and being turned inside out.
I really hope that you are happy now
Final expression of hope for the listener's happiness despite the challenges.
