Cowboy Divide
Journey Through the Great Divide: Micah Thunder's Poetic Reflections
Lyrics
Babies grow up to be cowboys
Babies grow up to become cowboys
Grow up to be real boys
They grow up to be authentic, genuine individuals
Never men
However, they may not fully mature into men
Maybe it's some of the real thing
Possibly experiencing some genuine emotions or situations
Almost a feeling in your skin
Almost like a sensation on your skin, suggesting a tangible experience
Here's the evening red as wine
Describing a picturesque evening, comparing it to red wine
Watch the sunshine through the pines
Observing sunshine filtering through pine trees
Crossing the great divide
Alluding to facing challenges or obstacles, symbolized by the great divide
Running still can't hide
Running away but unable to escape or hide from issues
Tracing a line to the lonely
Tracing a path to loneliness, portraying someone as a one-trick pony
A one-trick pony
Referring to someone who only has one skill or talent
Who prances and cries
Depicting the one-trick pony as both dancing and expressing sorrow
Dancing to sad songs and guitars
Dancing to melancholic songs and guitars
Wish on the North Star
Expressing a wish or longing by wishing on the North Star
To see you again
Desiring to see someone again
Throw my punches in the air
Metaphorically throwing punches in frustration or without a target
I'll keep preaching from my chair
Continuing to express opinions or beliefs passionately from a seated position
Crossing the great divide
Reiteration of facing challenges symbolized by the great divide
Running still can't hide
Despite running, one cannot escape or hide from ongoing challenges
Crossing the great divide
Repetition of the theme of confronting a significant divide
Running still can't hide
Reiterating the idea that running is not a solution to evading challenges
