The Cross and Crow
Journey of Surrender: The Cross and Crow's Embrace
Lyrics
You lead the way
You take the lead in this journey
I'll follow quick behind
I will swiftly follow your lead
Right on your neck
Close proximity, indicating a strong connection
I'm ready to abscond
I am prepared to escape or run away
The cross and crow
A symbol of sacrifice and a black bird representing death
Together in the sky
Both symbols are united in the sky, suggesting a spiritual connection
The lost and found
People who were once lost have been found
They need each others touch
They depend on each other for support and connection
You lead the way
Reiteration of the idea that you are leading the way
I give up all control
I surrender all control to you
I lost the path
I have lost my way or purpose
Markers long ago
Markers indicating direction or guidance were lost in the past
The cross and crow
Symbolic representation of sacrifice and death supporting the speaker
Together keep me here
The cross and crow together provide comfort and stability
Hope for the world
A sense of optimism and expectation for a better world
The fear that I'm killing it
Fear that the speaker is destroying the hope or positive aspects
You lead the way
Continuation of the theme where the listener is leading
I'll close my eyes and trust
Trusting and following with closed eyes
I think You know
Acknowledgment that the listener may be aware of the speaker revealing too much
That I have said too much
Reiteration of the symbolic connection leaving a lasting impact
The cross and crow
The symbols are etched or burned into the speaker's arms
They burn into my arms
Permanent marking indicating a profound and lasting influence
I'm marked for life
The speaker is marked for life due to the impact of the symbols
Lost if you lead me wrong
Fear of being lost if the leader guides in the wrong direction
You lead the way
Reiteration of the listener leading and the speaker following
I'll follow quick behind
Swiftly following, emphasizing the immediacy of the speaker's actions
Right on your neck
Close proximity, suggesting an intimate or intense connection
I'm ready to abscond
Preparedness to escape or run away, mirroring the earlier sentiment
