Spirit Please
Seeking Inner Peace: A Quest for Liberation
Lyrics
Awake and fighting the morning ghost
Awake and confronting the lingering effects of the morning
Shook me out of sleep and I'm pacing
Disturbed from sleep, pacing in response
They're caught back in the 90's
Referring to people stuck in a mindset or lifestyle reminiscent of the 90s
Looking for something nice on the TV
Searching for something pleasant on television
What they're looking for I'll never know
Uncertain about the motivations or desires of those in the 90s mindset
Spirit Please
Introduction of the plea to the spirit for guidance
Why don't you tell me what you really need?
Request for the spirit to communicate its true needs
In my house looking for inner peace
Expressing a personal search for inner peace within one's home
Friend if you find it could I have some please
Asking for a share of inner peace if found by a friend
We normalized it like everything else
Highlighting the normalization of things, including routines
and find ourselves in a routine
Finding oneself stuck in a predictable and unchanging routine
it moves along and it bears us no mind
Life moves forward without considering the individual
he's biding his time so it seems
Someone is patiently waiting for an opportunity
but when I leave and I grab the handle
Attempting to leave, but encountering resistance
some pale hand's got me in a stand-still
Feeling restrained by an unknown force
begging for a chance to get out the castle
Desiring a chance to break free from a restricting situation
but when we will he figure it out?
Questioning when the individual will realize the need for change
the past is all that he's got now
Reflecting on a past that is the only possession of the individual
Spirit Please
Reiteration of the plea to the spirit for guidance
Why don't you tell me what you really need?
Repetition of the request for the spirit to communicate its true needs
In my house looking for inner peace
Reaffirming the personal search for inner peace within one's home
Friend if you find it could I have some please
Reiterating the request for a share of inner peace if found by a friend
Hold his gaze on the garden scene
Directing attention to a garden scene and maintaining focus on it
I keep the windows clean, I give him that
Keeping the surroundings clear, offering that to the spirit
all he wants is to move along, turn the tv off
Understanding the desire to move forward and disconnect from distractions
but something's holding onto him
Sensing a force or attachment preventing progress
living in the past is easy, but letting go is so damn hard
Acknowledging the ease of living in the past but emphasizing the difficulty of letting go
Spirit Please
Repetition of the plea to the spirit for guidance
Why don't you tell me what you really need?
Repetition of the request for the spirit to communicate its true needs
In my house looking for inner peace
Reaffirmation of the personal search for inner peace within one's home
Friend if you find it could I have some please
Reiteration of the request for a share of inner peace if found by a friend
