I'll Go
Chasing Heights: Unraveling Life's Map with Lorraine Nash
Lyrics
Expectations high as the kite
High hopes and aspirations, akin to a kite soaring in the sky
You would fly as a child
Reminiscing about childhood innocence and freedom
You took your chances oh you tried
Trying and taking opportunities despite the uncertainty
But when it flew it went wild
The unpredictability and uncontrollable nature of the outcome
Anticipation lies with you at night
Feeling of eager expectation, possibly leading to disappointment
Sets you up for a fall of your own design
Setting oneself up for failure due to self-created circumstances
You've set your sights on the highest heights
Ambitious goals aiming for the highest peaks
And if you can't get there you'll die trying
Willingness to strive relentlessly for those goals
And I've been reading from this map for sometime now
Engagement with a situation or plan for a considerable period
And though I wrote it
The creation of a plan or idea
I still can't figure it out
Difficulty in understanding or making sense of the plan/idea
And if you just say the word then babe I'll go
Ready to act or leave if instructed or given guidance
But I don't know what the word is
Uncertainty about the specific instruction or guidance needed
Maybe you said it long ago
Possibility of missing or forgetting the instruction
Comprehension it clears your mind
Understanding brings clarity of mind
And clouds keep moving across its sky
Obstacles or unclear situations constantly arise
The more it shows you of what it hides
Revelation of truth uncovers more mysteries
The more of your wonder gets left behind
Understanding leads to loss of curiosity or amazement
There could be an explanation
Possibility of an explanation existing
Written in stone
Potential for a permanent and reliable explanation
It could tell me all I need to know
Hoping for answers to all inquiries
But stones get broken oh they change their shape
Things change and explanations become unreliable or mutable
So you might as well write it in water cause it's changing anyway
Advising against reliance on unstable explanations
And I've been reading from this map for sometime now
Continued attempt to comprehend a situation or plan
And though I wrote it
Act of creation or planning
I still can't figure it out
Difficulty persisting in understanding the plan or situation
Oh if you just say the word then babe I'll go
Willingness to take action upon receiving guidance or instruction
But I don't know what the word is
Uncertainty about the specific guidance or instruction needed
Maybe you said it long ago
Possibility of missing or forgetting the guidance
And I've been reading from this map for sometime now
Repeated attempt to understand a situation or plan
And though I wrote it
Creation or planning that continues to be challenging to comprehend
I still can't figure it out
Persistent difficulty in understanding
Oh if you just say the word then babe I'll go
Readiness to act based on guidance or instruction
But I don't know what the word is
Uncertainty about the specific guidance or instruction needed
Maybe you said it long ago
Possibility of missing or forgetting the guidance
And I've been reading from this map for sometime now
Continued struggle to understand a situation or plan
And though I wrote it
The act of creation or planning that remains perplexing
I still can't figure it out
Persistent difficulty in understanding
Oh if you just say the word then babe I'll go
Ready to act or leave based on instruction or guidance
But I don't know what the word is
Uncertainty about the specific instruction or guidance needed
Maybe you said it long ago
Possibility of missing or forgetting the instruction
