Repetition reinforcing the theme of deception or falsehood
Far past the point where the unfulfilling-ness makes you question whether the path is right
Describing a point where dissatisfaction leads to questioning the chosen path
Far past the feeling, confusion boats lost and sinking in my mind
Being far beyond confusion and feeling lost, mentally adrift
I finally came across the things I’d been intuitively hoping to find
Discovery of hoped-for things beyond conscious expectation
Knowing that I could never seek them out with my conscious mind
Recognition that these discoveries couldn't have been consciously sought
I let that thing brew
Allowing something to develop or mature
Let it stew
Letting it simmer or develop gradually
For sustenance
For the purpose of nourishment or support
To sustain me
To help maintain or sustain oneself
