A Tune for Nowhere
A Symphony of Nowhere: Colors, Citizens, and Uncharted Melodies
Lyrics
She wonders if the flags are waving still
She questions if the flags are still waving.
She likes to see their colors on the hill
She enjoys observing their colors displayed on the hill.
Almost like a rainbow over all of this
It's reminiscent of a rainbow covering everything.
She will fly the flag of nowhere
She will represent a place that doesn’t exist by flying a flag.
Hidden with the ribbons in her hair
She conceals the flag among the ribbons in her hair.
Anywhere she goes, she knows it's always there
Wherever she goes, she’s aware it’s with her.
Never far away from nowhere
It's never distant from her, this imaginary place.
Nowhere is a place inside her head
Nowhere is a mental space within her.
Though she is not its only citizen
She isn't the sole inhabitant of this mental place.
No one knows how many souls there may remain
Uncertainty exists about how many others might share this mental space.
Carrying a torch for nowhere
She continues to have feelings or devotion for this imaginary place.
Nowhere doesn't have a government
Nowhere lacks a governing body.
No one can decide how far it may extend
There’s no definite limit or authority over this mental space.
She will not surrender nowhere
She won’t give up her belief or connection to this place.
So, she is learning how to play the flute
She’s learning to play the flute for personal fulfillment.
Just because she always wanted to
She practices because it's something she always desired.
She practices her lessons every afternoon
Every afternoon, she dedicates time to her flute lessons.
Up and down the scales of nowhere
She practices the scales, symbolically representing her connection to 'nowhere.'
Stumbling across Au Claire de Lune
She discovers or encounters the piece "Au Claire de Lune."
Hour after hour in her basement room
Spending a significant amount of time composing a tune for this imaginary place.
Making up a tune for nowhere
Creating a melody or composition for 'nowhere.'
