Sticks
Echoes of Resilience: Stones and Sticks in a Thunderous Dance
Lyrics
You throw stones
You criticize or attack.
I put up sticks
I defend or resist.
the sound we make
The noise we create.
is a thunder
It is powerful or impactful.
when wind wails up
When conflict arises.
a push through each room
Advancing through various situations.
door blows open
A metaphor for unexpected challenges.
letters get tangled
Communication becomes complicated.
from A onto Z
From the beginning to the end of things.
we put them together
We try to make sense of them.
so hard to read
But it's challenging to understand.
In a constant come-around
In a repetitive cycle.
Believe me, I should know by now
Despite experience, understanding remains elusive.
Remind me how this goes
Requesting a reminder of the process.
Broken bones, broken bones
Referencing past hurts or challenges.
Acquiescent to the tone
Submitting to a certain mood or atmosphere.
Believe me, I should know, I should know
Despite experience, understanding remains elusive.
But show me how this goes
Asking for guidance in navigating challenges.
Broken bones, broken bones
Referencing past hurts or challenges.
You carry sticks
You defend or resist.
I pile up stones
I criticize or attack.
the space between us
The emotional gap between us.
sounds like distance
Feels like emotional separation.
a word so simple to spell
An easy-to-understand term.
the sentence that we build
The statement we construct.
is a thunder
It has a powerful impact.
