Hundreds or Fives
Surviving Change: Unveiling the Emotional Journey in 'Hundreds or Fives'
Lyrics
I'm worried you've changed fundamentally
I'm concerned that you've undergone a fundamental change.
I'm worried you changed so much
I'm worried that you've changed significantly.
Physically, mentally
This change is evident both physically and mentally.
Losing track of reality
You are losing touch with reality.
Starting over in search of identity
You're starting anew in an attempt to discover your identity.
I can survive a hurricane
I have the resilience to endure a hurricane.
Put me out in the wind and the rain
Place me in challenging situations, and I can endure.
I could survive the impossible
I can withstand seemingly impossible challenges.
I've had to be tougher than anyone knows
I've had to be stronger and more resilient than others realize.
So let's talk about the anxiety
Let's discuss the anxiety you're experiencing.
Nothing that ever made any sense to me
Things that used to make sense are now confusing.
Then once it hit like a bloody fat lip and
Then suddenly, it struck like a painful blow, and
The trauma just toppled down over me
Trauma overwhelmed me.
I can survive on an airplane
I can endure challenges, even on an airplane.
Frightened, white knuckled and
Fearful and gripping tightly, thoughts race through my mind.
All that goes through my brain
My mind is consumed with the question of whether I'll talk to my loved ones again.
Is will I talk to my baby again
I will become stronger; it's a necessary step towards a goal.
I will be tougher it's only a means to an end
Yet, I struggle to let go of this lingering anger.
Still I can't even let this anger go
It seems resistant to every known method.
It's immune to every damn trick
I can endure challenges, even a hurricane.
In the book that I know
Place me in adversity, and I will withstand it.
I can survive a hurricane
I can face seemingly impossible situations.
Put me out in the wind and the rain
I've had to be stronger and more resilient than others realize.
I can survive the impossible
Now we are creating a legacy, leaving a lasting impact.
I've had to be tougher than anyone knows
A new chapter in our latest tribute to the deceased.
So here we are leaving a legacy
Destroy the past quickly, and we won't look back.
A new chapter in our latest eulogy
At least until we undergo therapy.
Burn the book fast and
I can endure major life changes.
We'll never look back
If challenged, I can adapt and reorganize.
At least til we go into therapy
This is a recurring theme throughout history.
I can survive a life change
To progress, we must discard the obstacles in our way.
Put me up to it I'll rearrange
If challenged, I can adapt and reorganize.
We've had to do this through history
This has been a necessary process in our history.
For us to move forward
To move forward, we must remove the hindrances.
We've got to discard the debris
We must discard the unnecessary elements to progress.
