The Wayfinder
Navigating Through Life's Challenges: The Wayfinder's Journey
Lyrics
Feel a shift in the wind
Perception of a change in the environment or circumstances.
Dark clouds up ahead
Anticipation of challenges or difficulties ahead symbolized by dark clouds.
I've faced it before
Previous experience in facing challenges.
Felt the salt on my skin
Personal encounter with adversity, represented by feeling salt on the skin.
In my mind I've taken on
Mentally preparing for a journey or challenge.
To see the way back home
Desire to find the way back home, possibly metaphorical.
Have a great crew
Having a reliable and capable team.
All knowing what to do
Confident and knowledgeable companions.
If we can only hold it
Wishing to maintain control or stability.
Tight to the wind
Advising to stay on course, possibly in the face of challenges.
You be the teacher
Encouraging someone to impart knowledge or guidance.
In your darkness reveal
Encouraging openness and sharing of personal struggles.
Swells passing under
Reference to challenges or obstacles that must be faced.
From where I must feel
Emphasizing the importance of personal experience and intuition.
Guiding stars rise and they fall
Symbolic representation of guidance and navigation through challenges.
Which house do they live in
Questioning the origin or source of wisdom.
The ancient voice calls
Connection to ancient wisdom or traditions.
With no time to sleep
Expressing a sense of urgency and lack of time for rest.
Only glimpses of rest
Experiencing fatigue and exhaustion.
All my senses are burning
Sensory overload and being tested by challenges.
Being put to the test
Mentions islands, possibly representing obstacles or goals.
Islands rising in my mind
Imagery of mental landscapes and challenges.
And yet I know
Awareness of challenges despite knowledge.
It's easy to get lost in nothing
Warning about the ease of losing direction or purpose.
But miles of blue
Amid challenges, the vastness of possibilities.
And find your way when clouds keep the heavens hidden from your view
Finding a way despite obscured perspectives.
If you be the teacher
Reiterating the role of a teacher or guide.
Then help me to know
Seeking guidance and knowledge.
How the birds are showing us
Observing nature as a source of guidance.
We're close to our home
Feeling proximity to home through natural signs.
Sometimes it's lonely
Acknowledging the occasional isolation or loneliness.
My weary eyes stare
Weary eyes reflect the challenges faced.
Yet knowing they trust me
Trusting in spite of weariness.
In getting us there
Believing in the ability to reach the destination.
Take us home from these southern seas
Expressing a desire to return from challenging experiences.
Under northern skies lies our destiny
Highlighting the significance of the intended destination.
Hoping the wind will be a friend
Hoping for favorable conditions and no signs of trouble.
No trace of smoke on the horizon
Aversion to challenges or unexpected obstacles.
It always makes me sad
Reflecting on the emotional impact of recognizing progress.
When I first sight land
The bittersweet feeling of reaching a destination.
Knowing the job of the Wayfinder
Acknowledging the completion of the guiding role.
Is finally done
Sense of accomplishment and closure for the Wayfinder.
