Shine
Seeking Belonging: Embracing Light Amidst Darkness
Lyrics
What is it like when it's gone?
Questioning the experience of loss
All the day and the night and the song
The continuous passing of time and the presence of music or expression
And what seems so real
The perceived reality that prevents reaching a new beginning or understanding
Is what keeps us from the dawn
The perceived reality acting as a barrier to progress
Truly I know it sometimes
Admitting occasional understanding or awareness
I see the reasons and signs
Acknowledgment of recognizing patterns and indications
That this world can only turn so many times
Recognition of limitations within the world's cycles
In a simple way
Expressing a simplistic approach
Though I be so wrong
Despite potential error or misunderstanding
Though I turn away
Acknowledging a turning away from something
I know where I belong
Knowing one's place or purpose despite actions
Feelings all around in me
Feeling overwhelmed by emotions and external pressures
Do this, do that, and you'll see
Pressure to perform or achieve specific outcomes
That it's hard to find
Difficulty in identifying essential needs in life's pursuits
Just what we need where we seek
The challenge of finding what's necessary in desired places
I'll say it again that I've tried
Reiteration of attempting
To find the right ways on this ride
Struggling to find the right path while feeling disoriented
Where we're upside down
Metaphorical reference to feeling disoriented or chaotic
And we still will try to hide
Attempting to conceal challenges or vulnerabilities
In a simple way
Reiterating a simplistic viewpoint despite potential error
Though I be so wrong
Despite potential error or misunderstanding
Though I turn away
Acknowledging a turning away from something
I know where I belong
Knowing one's place or purpose despite actions
And the Son will shine
Hope or promise of a brighter future symbolized by the 'Son' shining
And the reign won't fall
Assurance that the reign or rule won't collapse
And I know inside
Internal certainty about divine love encompassing everyone
How He loves us all
Confidence in the encompassing love of a higher power
Our hands will get so that they
Hands becoming incapable of providing assistance continuously
Can't pull us up all the day
Realization that assistance or help may become insufficient
We need to find that now we have to say
Realization of the necessity to express something important now
