Cedric's Song
Navigating Life's Winds: Cedric's Journey Through Time and Change
Lyrics
Time is rushing by
Time is passing quickly, and life is moving fast.
Oh this piercing wind
Reference to a sharp, cutting wind that may symbolize challenges or difficulties.
I cry it hits my face
The wind causes emotional pain, expressed through tears.
I couldn’t tell you why
Unable to explain or understand the reasons behind the emotional turmoil.
Why I stared outside
Reflecting on a period of contemplation or introspection by staring outside.
For almost half the day
A significant amount of time spent in deep thought, possibly indicating a struggle or inner conflict.
So many thoughts
A multitude of thoughts occupying the mind.
But I’m too shy
Shyness inhibits the expression of thoughts or feelings.
To tell you that I’d rather
Preferring solitude or staying indoors rather than expressing oneself.
Stay inside
Choosing to remain within one's comfort zone.
Inside my head
The internal mental state is presented as a place of refuge.
I’m doing fine
Self-assurance and a claim of being okay within one's thoughts.
I tell myself that
Reassuring oneself of well-being as a coping mechanism.
Every single time
A recurring affirmation despite inner struggles.
Trying to hold on
Attempting to endure or persevere through difficulties.
Hold on
Repetition of the desire to hold on, indicating resilience.
But nothing is the same
A realization that things have changed, and there is a sense of loss or nostalgia.
Not the same no more
Emphasizing that the current situation is distinctly different from the past.
I don’t feel like a kid no more
An acknowledgment of growing up and leaving behind the innocence of childhood.
Doing my best
Striving to enjoy life and find happiness despite challenges.
Just to have some fun
Engaging in activities to bring joy and fulfillment.
I’m clenching my teeth
Expressing tension or stress through teeth clenching.
After losing all this sun
After experiencing a loss or setback, represented metaphorically as losing sunlight.
Holding my breath
Holding one's breath suggests anticipation or anxiety during a challenging journey.
On the longest drive
Reflecting on a prolonged and difficult experience, possibly a journey.
I drew a bit of blood
A physical manifestation of pain or struggle, drawing blood after a fall.
After falling on my side
An event of physical vulnerability, possibly mirroring emotional vulnerability.
