Lyrics

In a wake of some change

In the aftermath of a significant change

Stones in the pipeline

Obstacles or challenges in the journey

Like some new mountain range

Similar to a new and unexplored mountain range

We leave the lowlands behind

We move away from the familiar, lower areas


They take your photograph

A moment captured in a photo

You come into existence

Your existence becomes apparent

You realize it's your path

Realization that this is your chosen path

In this very instant

An immediate awareness of one's purpose


Some heroes are we

We, as individuals, are heroes

To pass outside these gates

To move beyond established boundaries

With a will to adjust

Having the determination to adapt

Adjust to what it takes

Adjusting to whatever challenges come


You add another year to this

As time passes, another year is added

And it all has gone to waste

Regret that time has been wasted

Other plans have been made

Alternate plans have been established

To pursue your own separate fates

Pursuing individual destinies


The kids are on High Street

Youthful energy is present on High Street

The kids will not sleep tonight

The young generation is restless and won't sleep

The kids got in a knife fight

A reference to a violent confrontation among the youth

We trained them well

They've been trained well and will be fine

They're gonna be alright


I'll be joining with them soon

An eagerness to escape a current situation

I can't even wait to get away from you

An expression of impatience to leave someone behind

'Cause it's only in hindsight

Understanding comes only with hindsight

That we will know what was right to do

We will eventually realize the right course of action

I always thought we had it made

A belief that success was guaranteed

Ambition spurred the plans we laid

Ambition drove the plans, but they might not have succeeded
