Wounds
Embracing Life's Scars: A Journey Through Fear and Redemption
Lyrics
Fear, I was so afraid to face the truth and open wide
Fear, reluctance to confront the truth and be vulnerable
For fear that I would float away and not been seen
Fear of being unnoticed or overlooked if opening up
There is a beating in my heart
Awareness of a strong heartbeat, possibly signifying intense emotions
And it is the scariest thing I have ever felt
Describing the frightening nature of the intense emotions experienced
To know that the difference
Noting the small difference between joy and sadness
Between joy and sadness is such a small sliver
Expressing the narrow boundary between joy and sadness
There is a welling up of emotions inside me
Feeling overwhelmed with emotions that are difficult to endure
That I just can't bare; tears stream down my face
The emotional intensity leading to tears
There are moments of extreme joy
Highlighting moments of extreme joy in life
There are moments of love, there are moments of madness
Recognition of diverse experiences in life, including love and madness
And this is life; we cannot change what arises
Acknowledging life's unpredictability and the inability to control it
Only how we greet it
Emphasizing the importance of how one approaches life's challenges
The pictures they fade, my horrible memories fade
Memories fading, possibly through choosing love as a guiding principle
They burst into fire when I chose to let love be my guide
Choosing love as a transformative force against negative memories
Depression, anxiety and shame, they almost killed me
Listing struggles with mental health (depression, anxiety, shame)
Obsession, addiction and pain, they almost killed me
Listing challenges and dangers (obsession, addiction, pain)
The wounds that never heal are the ones you refuse to see
Underscoring that unaddressed wounds persist and hinder healing
The wounds that never heal are the ones you refuse to see
Reiterating the idea that unseen wounds are the ones that don't heal
Be the change you seek
Encouraging proactive change in oneself
Be the change you seek
-Be the change you seek
-The pictures they fade, my horrible memories fade
Repetition of the fading of memories through choosing love
They burst into fire when I chose to let love be my guide
Reiterating the transformative power of choosing love over negative memories
Depression, anxiety and shame, they almost killed me
Reiteration of struggles with mental health
Obsession, addiction and pain, they almost killed me
Reiteration of challenges and dangers faced in life
Fear, I was so afraid to face the truth and open wide
Repetition of initial fear of facing the truth and being unseen
For fear that I would float away and not been seen
Reiteration of the fear of floating away and not being seen
