Lyrics

I've tried this before

I've attempted something similar in the past

I didn't get very far

I didn't achieve much success

I drove off the road

I veered off the road

The brakes are out on my car

The brakes in my car are not functioning

I had some plans to make

I had plans to make

I'm sitting here in the dark

I'm currently in the dark (possibly metaphorical)

And later on I'll go outside and restart

Later, I'll go outside and restart (metaphorical or literal)

I'm not sure how to deal with losing

I'm uncertain how to cope with loss

And this time around I'm losing me

This time, I'm losing my sense of self

If I could fly

If I had the ability to fly

I'd fly higher

I would ascend higher

If I could try

If I could attempt

I'd really try

I would genuinely try

If I could scream (hey)

If I could scream (expression of frustration)

I'd scream louder

I would scream louder

If I could find the reason why I'd lose a hand and and eye

If I could understand the reason why, I'd endure significant challenges

Been looking for the sun

I've been searching for positivity

It hasn't risen in days

The sun has not risen for days (metaphorical or literal)

Waking up's never fun

Waking up is not enjoyable

So I'll try and do it my own way

I'll try to face life in my own way

I'll find a quiet place

I'll find a tranquil place

And I'll ask Joel for a mug

I'll ask Joel for a mug (context unclear, possibly a friend)

I'll leave my car and walk this time just for fun

I'll leave my car and walk for fun

I've been hard on myself for so long

I've been self-critical for a long time

Now it's time I fell in your love

Now it's time for me to accept your love (possibly divine)

Now I can fly

Now I can fly (possibly metaphorical)

So I'll fly higher

I will soar higher

Now I can try

Now I have the ability to attempt

So I'll really try

So I will genuinely try

Now I can scream (hey)

Now I can express my frustration

So I'll scream louder

So I will express it louder

Now that I've found the reason why I'll lift my hands to the sky

Now that I've found the reason, I'll raise my hands in gratitude (metaphorical or literal)

Oh oh yeah

Expressing affirmation or excitement

I've tried this before

I've attempted this before (repeated line)

This time I'll make it

This time I will succeed

I'm looking to the Lord

I'm turning to the Lord (possibly seeking guidance)

His Holy Spirit

Referring to the influence of the Holy Spirit
