Wazza
Echoes of Redemption: Sara Tindley's Wazza Unveiled
Lyrics
Was a calling and I did not heed it
Ignored a calling that I received
It came late and night had spread her blanket
The calling came late at night
Of darkness and stars big as an ocean
Night has covered the surroundings with darkness and stars
Wider than I've ever seen
Describing the vastness of the night sky
Voices were singing to me
Various voices were singing to the speaker
Not one or two or even three
A multitude of voices, not just a few
But a multitude
Emphasizing the numerous voices
Came humming like an insect across the plain
Voices approached like a humming insect across the plain
Come my way
An invitation for someone or something to come the speaker's way
Come my way again
Repetition of the invitation, expressing a desire for it to happen again
Come my way
Repetition of the invitation, suggesting a longing for connection
Come my way
Reiteration of the desire for someone or something to come the speaker's way
And if they came back into my world
If the voices returned, the speaker wonders if they would recognize her current state
I wonder would they recognise this mess of a girl
The speaker acknowledges feeling like a mess and questions self-recognition
I took a wrong turn
Admits to taking a wrong turn in life
Going to go the right way now
Expresses determination to correct the course and go the right way now
I have listened for your voices
The speaker has been actively listening for the voices in various situations
In the heat of the rocks
Specifically mentions listening in the heat of the rocks, possibly a challenging situation
I have slipped through the silence
Speaker has navigated through silence and yearned for human touch
Craved human touch
Expresses a need for connection and intimacy
Come stand beside me
Invites someone to stand beside the speaker, suggesting a desire for companionship
You can be my angels
The speaker envisions the possibility of others being like angels in her life
Was a calling and I did not heed it
Repeats the idea of ignoring a calling
It came late and night had spread her blanket
Reiterates that the calling came late at night
Of darkness and stars big as an ocean
Repeats the description of the night sky, emphasizing its vastness
Wider than I have ever seen
Reiterates the comparison of the night sky to an ocean, expressing its immense scale
