Motion
Embracing Motion: Finding Control Amidst Darkness
Lyrics
Day leaves, night arrives
Transition from day to night.
How come the shadow is a crutch for the light?
Questioning the paradox of shadows supporting light.
So I come across a lost town in the dark
Discovering an unfamiliar town in darkness.
One man he stands alone in a park
An isolated man in a park, perhaps symbolizing solitude.
How long?
A contemplation of time passing.
Motion lives in my soul
A declaration that movement or change is inherent in the speaker's essence.
For a moment there
Reflecting on a brief moment of perceived control.
I thought I was in control
Realization that control was temporary.
Motion lives in my soul
Reaffirmation of the presence of motion in the speaker's soul.
Gonna get me out of this hole
Expressing a desire to escape a difficult situation.
Play, play
Invitation or command to play.
Are you saving me?
Asking if someone is saving the speaker.
I need you
Expressing a need for someone.
'Cause these roofs are made of ice
Describing precarious conditions using icy roofs as a metaphor.
How long?
Reiteration of the passing of time.
Motion lives in my soul
Repeating the idea that motion is an integral part of the speaker's soul.
For a moment there
Recollection of a fleeting sense of control.
I thought I was in control
Emphasizing the enduring presence of motion in the speaker's soul.
Motion lives in my soul
Renewed determination to overcome challenges represented by a hole.
Gonna get me out of this hole
A commitment to break free from a difficult situation.
