My Rock, My Rope
Finding Strength in Shadows: My Rock, My Rope
Lyrics
In my pain, in my darkness
In times of pain and darkness, there is something comforting and hopeful.
Is my comfort and hope
The source of comfort and hope is found within the pain and darkness.
In my loss and in my sorrow
Even in moments of loss and sorrow, there is a reliable and supportive foundation.
Is my rock, is my rope
The reliable foundation is likened to a rock and a rope, symbolizing strength and support.
Give me the strength to bear it
A plea for strength to endure and carry the burden of pain.
Give me the strength to see
A request for strength to perceive and understand the temporary nature of the suffering.
That this is not forever
A realization that the difficult circumstances are not permanent.
But what must be, must be
An acceptance that certain things are unavoidable and must be faced.
In my cloud of illusion
In a state of confusion or misunderstanding, a request for guidance.
Give me some way I can steer
Seeking a way to navigate through challenges and difficulties.
Through the shores and the shipwrecks
Navigating through metaphorical dangers and obstacles until clarity is achieved.
'Til I see my way is clear
Continuing the journey until a clear path or solution is evident.
Let me uplift it
Expressing a desire to overcome or transcend the difficulty.
Or take this away from me
An openness to either overcome the challenge or be relieved from it.
And heal me from my demons
A wish for healing from personal struggles or inner conflicts.
And forever I'll be free
The promise of freedom if healing from inner demons is achieved.
In my pain, in my darkness
Reiteration of the idea that comfort and hope are found in pain and darkness.
Is my comfort and [?]
The specific nature of the comfort in pain is not clear (indicated by "?").
In my loss and in my sorrow
Reiteration that the rock and rope are present in moments of loss and sorrow.
Is my rock, my rope
Confirmation that the reliable foundation is both a rock and a rope.
Is my rock, my rope
Repetition for emphasis that the rock and rope are integral elements.
Is my rock, is my rope
Final confirmation of the significance of the rock and rope.
