Churned
Escape from the Familiar: A Journey Beyond
Lyrics
Temptation to escape from the life that you know
Temptation to escape from the familiar life.
It started when a man so sure of himself decided it was time to find out
A confident man decides to explore the meaning of life.
The meaning of it all, he wants to feel alive and
He seeks to feel alive and embarks on a journey away from the known.
Take a trip away from all he has known
Expresses his intention to leave behind everything he's known.
And so he found a mystic woman who could take him there and
Finds a mystical woman who can facilitate his escape.
They sailed off across the ocean
They set sail across the ocean together.
Now he's walking 'round in circles in a foreign land
Now he's lost and disoriented in a foreign land.
With his fear taking over his senses
Fear overwhelms his senses.
Unfamiliar places await him where he's going
He faces unfamiliar places on his journey.
There's something in the air, oh can't you feel it too?
Senses a mysterious atmosphere and urges others to feel it too.
It makes wanna go out and live
Feeling inspired to live life to the fullest.
And if you feel a bit uneasy you'll get better soon
Assures that discomfort will pass, attributing it to fear.
It's just your fear taking over your senses, taking over your world
Explores the theme of fear dominating one's senses and world.
You've gotta escape from America
Suggests escaping from the constraints of America.
And come to the sunlit coast
Invites to come to a sunlit coast, signifying a better place.
I'll split your mind up open like a coconut
Uses metaphorical language, suggesting a profound impact on the mind.
And I can show you who you love the most
Claims the ability to reveal who one truly loves.
She took a look into his lost and fearful eyes and she could
The mystic woman perceives his inner thoughts through his eyes.
See his thoughts from the inside
She identifies his emotions and inner struggles.
She says "Your heart is filled with lust and desire
Describes the man's heart as filled with lust and desire.
But to happiness, you're blind"
Asserts that he is blind to happiness despite his desires.
