Way In the World
Discovering Purpose: Navigating Life's Maze with Nina Nesbitt
Lyrics
I'm working in a retail store
The narrator works in a retail store but feels it's not their true calling.
It's not what I'm cutout for
Expresses a feeling of not being suited for the current job or situation.
I live for my breaks
They find solace or enjoyment during their breaks from work.
I know there's something more
Belief in a greater purpose or something beyond their current circumstances.
So much to explore
Desire to explore more in life.
But it feels so far away
Feeling that the aspirations or dreams are distant or unreachable.
I'm not lost
They aren’t lost but in the process of discovering themselves.
I'm just finding
Emphasizing the journey of self-discovery.
My way
Finding their path in life.
In the world
Asserts the quest to find one's place in the world.
I'm not lost
Reiteration of not being lost but navigating through life.
I'm just finding
Continued exploration and self-discovery.
My way
Discovering their way amidst life's complexities.
In the world
Reaffirming the search for their place in the vast world.
In the big old world
Highlighting the enormity of the world and its opportunities/challenges.
Do you ever, do you ever, do you wonder?
Repeated questioning about the uncertainty regarding dreams and feeling overwhelmed.
Wonder where your dreams go?
-Do you feel like you're falling under?
-Under it all?
-Do you ever, do you ever, do you wonder?
-Wonder where your dreams go?
-Do you feel like you're falling under?
-Under it all?
-I don't know if it's bad or good
Uncertainty about desires and goals, having a clear understanding of what they don't want.
Walking down the street without you
-I don't know quite what I want
-But one thing I've got
-Is a good idea of what I'm not
-I'm not lost
Reiteration of being in the process of finding oneself amidst uncertainties.
I'm just finding
-My way
-In the world
-I'm not lost
-I'm just finding
-My way
-In the world
-In the big old world
Repeated questioning about dreams and feeling overwhelmed.
Do you ever, do you ever, do you wonder?
-Wonder where your dreams go?
-Do you feel like you're falling under?
-Under it all?
-Do you ever, do you ever, do you wonder?
-Wonder where your dreams go?
-Do you feel like you're falling under?
-Under it all?
-Ain't a store, not at work, can I take my seat
A moment of clarity and realization, perhaps triggered by an emotional experience.
At the front of the bus and my headphones pleat
-And right there in a flash with tears on my cheeks
-I can suddenly see
-We're not lost
Asserting the collective nature of the journey of self-discovery and exploration.
We're just finding
-Our way
-In the world
-We're not lost
-We're just finding
-Our way
-In the world
-In the big old world
Reiteration of the vastness of the world and its possibilities.
Do you ever, do you ever, do you wonder?
Repetitive questioning about dreams and feeling overwhelmed.
Wonder where your dreams go?
-Do you feel like you're falling under?
-Under it all?
-Do you ever, do you ever, do you wonder?
-Wonder where your dreams go?
-Do you feel like you're falling under?
-Under it all?
-Do you ever, do you ever, do you wonder?
-Wonder where your dreams go?
-Do you feel like you're falling under?
-Under it all?
-Do you ever, do you ever, do you wonder?
-Wonder where your dreams go?
-Do you feel like you're falling under?
-I'm not lost
Reiteration of not being lost but in the process of finding their way.
I'm just finding
-My way
-In the world
-In the big old world
Emphasizing the vastness and complexity of the world.
