Where the Money Is
Chasing Dreams, Dodging Fortune: NEEDTOBREATHE's 'Where the Money Is' Story
Lyrics
We started out we were welcome in
We initially felt welcomed into a situation.
We had enough when we needed it
We had enough resources when necessary.
Grip all you saw in a sea of shame
We held onto everything we observed in a sea of disgrace.
Run down your dream and then lose your place
We pursued our dreams but ended up losing our position.
I'm falling back up and feeling good
I'm bouncing back from setbacks and feeling positive.
You opportunity struck just like you thought it would
An opportunity presented itself as expected.
Don't want to know where the money is
We prefer not to be aware of where the money is.
Don't want to know where the money is
We avoid knowledge about the location of wealth.
It's just a tragedy trying to take its toll again
The pursuit of money is viewed as a tragic cycle.
Don't want to know where the money is
We choose ignorance about the location of wealth.
These days are easy they come to life
These days are simple and come to life easily.
These colors brighten they all are mine
Colors brighten, signifying a sense of ownership.
I want to move in a lovers march
Desire to be part of a march of lovers.
My only grief is when we spend these days apart
Sorrow only exists when separated during these days.
Don't want to know where the money is
We resist knowing the whereabouts of money.
Don't want to know where the money is
Avoidance of awareness regarding wealth location.
It's just a tragedy trying to take its toll again
The pursuit of money is described as a tragic repetition.
Don't want to know where the money is
We opt not to know where the money is.
Don't want to know where the money is
We don't want to be informed about the location of wealth.
Don't want to know where the money is
Aversion to knowing where the money is located.
It's just a tragedy trying to take its toll again
The pursuit of money is portrayed as a tragic cycle.
Don't want to know where the money is
We choose ignorance about the location of wealth.
Bury your ropes and let the wise man's daughter
Symbolic action of burying ropes by the wise man's daughter.
Carry us down to where the walls don't speak
A plea to be carried to a place where secrets are not spoken.
Bury my worries in the deep black water
Burying worries in deep black water to release the burden.
Bury them down and take the weight off me
Burying concerns and seeking relief from their weight.
Bury your ropes and let the wise man's daughter
Reiteration of the symbolic act of burying ropes.
Carry us down to where the walls don't speak
Repetition of the desire to be taken to a place of silence.
Bury my worries in the deep black water
Continued theme of burying worries in deep water for solace.
Bury them down and take the weight off me
Continued emphasis on relieving the burden of worries.
Don't want to know where the money is
Choosing not to be aware of the location of money.
Don't want to know where the money is
Avoiding knowledge about the whereabouts of wealth.
It's just a tragedy trying to take its toll again
Describing the pursuit of money as a tragic recurrence.
Don't want to know where the money is
Opting not to know the location of money.
Don't want to know where the money is
Refusing awareness of the location of money.
Don't want to know where the money is
Choosing not to be informed about the whereabouts of wealth.
It's just a tragedy trying to take its toll again
Describing the pursuit of money as a tragic repetition.
Don't want to know where the money is
Opting not to know where the money is.
Don't want to know where the money is
Choosing to remain ignorant of the location of money.
Don't want to know where the money is
Avoiding knowledge about the whereabouts of wealth.
It's just a tragedy trying to take its toll again
Describing the pursuit of money as a tragic recurrence.
Don't want to know where the money is
Opting not to know where the money is.
