North on 95
Journey of Reflection: Northbound on 95
Lyrics
Headed north on 95
Embarking on a journey northward along Interstate 95.
I was feelin' very much alive
Feeling vibrant and alive during the journey.
And if I don't come back read a little Kerouac
Suggesting to read Jack Kerouac's work if not returning, implying self-discovery through literature.
It would be good for you, yeah
Encouraging the idea of personal growth through experiencing new things.
Now I'm stuck inside a line
Frustrated or confined within a creative process, possibly songwriting.
Tryin' to find a decent rhyme
Struggling to find a suitable and meaningful rhyme.
I loaded up my van and left the promised land
Leaving a comfortable or familiar place in pursuit of a different perspective.
For a different view and I'm still lookin'
Continuing the search for something meaningful or fulfilling.
So tell me where did we go wrong
Reflecting on a relationship and questioning the point of divergence.
And give me one more chance to prove you wrong
Seeking another opportunity to prove someone wrong and mend the relationship.
I saw a monarch butterfly
Observing a symbol of transformation and beauty, the monarch butterfly.
Spread its holy wings and fly
Witnessing the butterfly's flight under the radiant sun.
Beneath the velvet sun
Describing a picturesque scene with a metaphorical touch.
I watched her come undone and then disappear
Noting the butterfly's unraveling or transformation and eventual disappearance.
So I got out my old guitar
Reconnecting with a musical outlet, playing the guitar.
And I dug down really hard
Putting significant effort into musical expression or self-discovery.
And then a voice inside said
Internal dialogue questioning the persistence in a particular place or situation.
I gotta ask you why you're still comin' here
Prompting self-reflection on the reasons for staying in a certain place or situation.
And tell me where did we go wrong
Continuing the theme of relationship reflection and questioning the point of divergence.
And give me one more chance to prove you wrong
Pleading for another chance to rectify mistakes and prove oneself.
It's hard to say where love turns cold
Expressing difficulty in pinpointing when love deteriorates.
We never thought that we'd grow old
Reflecting on the unexpected aspect of growing old in a relationship.
We filled up fast and went down slow
Describing a relationship's progression, filling up fast and declining slowly.
Enough to fake us out and make us fold
Acknowledging deceptive moments that lead to disillusionment and separation.
Tell me where did we go wrong
Repeating the inquiry about the point of divergence in the relationship.
And give me one more chance to prove you wrong
Requesting another chance to address the issues and prove one's worth.
And tell me where did we go wrong
Reiterating the question about the relationship's downfall.
And give me one more chance to prove you wrong
Pleading once again for an opportunity to prove oneself and mend the relationship.
