Land Of The Free
Lost in Liberty: May Erlewine's Powerful Reflection on Freedom
Lyrics
The rain is good company
The rain serves as comforting company.
And I woke up alone
The speaker woke up without anyone else present.
It's nice to hear something
Hearing something is a welcome change from the unknown.
Besides the unknown
There's relief in experiencing something familiar.
And I feel the future
The speaker senses change or progress in their life.
Breaking in me
The future is causing internal disruptions or transformations.
Help me I'm lost in the land of the free
The speaker feels lost and seeks help in a supposedly free land.
I look to the headlines
Checking news headlines and screens for information.
I look to the screen
Finding no indication of peace in the media.
And I could not find
The speaker couldn't find solace or tranquility.
One breath of peace
A lack of peaceful moments is emphasized.
Calling out to the people
Calling out to people, but the speaker's voice is weakening.
My voice getting weak
Expressing a plea for help while feeling lost.
Help me I'm lost in the land of the free
Reiterating the sense of being lost in a free land.
I heard him speak
Hearing someone speak powerfully, like a mountain.
Like a mountain that day
Memorable impact on the speaker, akin to a mountain's stability.
Holding my heart
The speaker's heart is held strongly, perhaps by the speaker from line 17.
Like a pillar of faith
Comparing the strength of the heart to a pillar of faith.
His words were like diamonds
Describing impactful words as precious and valuable.
I have a dream
Reference to a dream, possibly a vision or aspiration.
A dream that got lost in the land of the free
The dream has been lost in the supposedly free land.
Help me I'm lost in the land of the free
Reiterating the plea for help while being lost in the land of the free.
