Ephemeral Echoes: Navigating Life's Challenges in a Flash
Lyrics
It's hard, in a flash, to let you go
Expressing difficulty in quickly moving on from something/someone.
It's hard, in a flash, to let you go
Reiterating the challenge of letting go abruptly.
When we were young we were told, that we could just be boys and let our dreams unfold
Recalling childhood ideals of freedom to pursue dreams.
And as we grew we lived a sheltered life, a modern life that let us run and play
Describing a sheltered upbringing allowing freedom but within limits.
But it's tough when God comes crashing in, to keep your soul at peace
Struggling when faced with spiritual or existential challenges.
And It's tough to do this growing up, when driven to your knees
Difficulty coping with the hardships of growing up.
And it's hard, in a flash, to let you go
Reiterating the struggle of abruptly letting go.
Oh, it's hard, in a flash, to let you go
Reemphasizing the challenge of moving on swiftly.
Playing songs of the past,
Reflecting on nostalgic moments by playing old songs.
Sharing the meals we would share is how we deal
Using shared meals as a coping mechanism.
With the sheathing of our skin, and the thought that we could win against all odds
Believing in the possibility of triumph despite difficulties.
When it's tough when God comes crashing in, to set your soul on fire
Struggling when faced with spiritual or existential challenges (repeated theme).
And it's tough to keep this love alive, when stripped of your desire
Difficulty in maintaining love and passion under duress.
When the filaments behind my eyes, are rusted, rotted, burnt
Symbolically describing inner turmoil or damage.
Then I think of you and all is bright, a flash among the burn
Finding brightness and hope amidst personal struggles.
But it's tough when God comes crashing in, to keep your soul at rest,
Struggling with inner peace amid spiritual challenges (reiteration).
And it's tough to do this growing up, when delivered such a test
Expressing the difficulty of maturity amidst tough trials.
But we fight and strive to live the life, that you had hoped to lead
Striving to live a life aligned with someone else's aspirations.
And we're drinking in your honor, even though you'll never leave us
Drinking to honor someone who has passed away but remains influential.
'cause it's true
Asserting the truthfulness of the emotions expressed.
Yes, it's true
Reaffirming the sincerity of the emotions.
Oh, it's true
Reiterating the truthfulness of the sentiments.
I love you
Declaring love and emotional connection.
