For The Ride
Navigating Life's Currents: A Musical Journey with New Delica
Lyrics
She can see the water rise
Observing the rising water
Long before I'm choking
Aware of challenges well before they become overwhelming
Praying for a storm on a peaceful day
Hoping for chaos in an otherwise calm day
Been too long since I've been blown away
Longing for an intense experience, suggesting monotony
I guess the river holds you down
Suggesting a struggle or feeling restrained by a force
Untill you let it push you round
Being controlled by a powerful force until deciding to resist
We went through the door 'cause it was open
Choosing an open path without considering consequences
Seemed all right
Initial impression that everything is fine
At the time
Realization of potential issues only in hindsight
Somewhere far away from home
Seeking escape from familiar surroundings
For the ride
Embracing challenges for the experience
For the ride
Repeating the desire for the experience
Got us everything we wanted
Achieving desired outcomes initially
For a while
Temporary success or fulfillment
For a while
Emphasizing the transient nature of success
Just a straight road rolling on for miles
Describing a straightforward and continuous journey
Rolling on for miles
Repetition for emphasis on the journey's length
Rolling on for miles

I filled her house with dirty dishes
Living in a messy and chaotic environment
And drank myself to sleep
Seeking solace in alcohol and escape through sleep
She kept sweeping up the dirt decisions lying at my feet
Dealing with the consequences of bad decisions
She didn't care for answers
Disregarding the need for answers
Till that sunday morning cracked
A pivotal moment, possibly an awakening
I was forcing on my boots
Preparing for a journey
And said let's talk when I get back
Postponing important conversations
I walked out the door 'cause it was open
Choosing a path without careful consideration
Seemed alright
Initial perception of the decision as acceptable
At the time
Realization of potential issues after the fact
Somewhere far away from home
Seeking distance from familiar surroundings
For the ride
Embracing challenges for the experience
For the ride
Repeating the desire for the experience
Got me everything I wanted
Achieving desired outcomes initially
For a while
Temporary success or fulfillment
For a while
Emphasizing the transient nature of success
Till I came back crawling like a child
Returning with humility after facing challenges
