Embracing Resilience: Time Bandit's Journey Through Hardship
Lyrics
Went home today and saw you again
Expressing returning home and encountering the person again.
Life is hard when you're not around
Highlighting the challenges of life in the absence of the person.
We decorated the walls of my room with your words
Describing the act of adorning room walls with meaningful words from the person.
Making it safer for my thoughts to reside in
Creating a safe mental space using the person's words for thoughts.
You never want to let me down or let me cave in
Emphasizing the person's reliability and commitment to support.
You never want to see me throw myself to the wind
Stressing the person's reluctance to witness self-destructive actions.
I still remember when I had enough to eat
Recalling a past time when basic needs like food were sufficient.
So I will keep on trusting you
Expressing trust in the person to provide liberation.
To free me
Seeking freedom through the person's influence.
Caught up in chaos I sat for a week
Narrating a period of confusion and disorder lasting a week.
Wondering when my legs would move all on their own
Reflecting on the uncertainty of regaining independent movement.
You sat next to me reminded me
Acknowledging the person's role in providing a reminder during difficult times.
That in my sleep I'll never be
Highlighting a sense of emotional stagnation during sleep.
Able to move on feelings alone
Stating the inability to progress based solely on emotions.
You never want to let me down or let me cave in
Reiterating the person's commitment to preventing disappointment and collapse.
You never want to see me throw myself to the wind
Reinforcing the person's desire to discourage self-destructive behavior.
I still remember when I had enough to eat
Recalling a time when basic needs were easily met.
So I will keep on trusting you
Affirming continued trust in the person for liberation.
To free me
Repeating the desire for freedom through reliance on the person.
Remember when I couldn't speak
Reminiscing about a time when speech was difficult and the mind was vulnerable.
And my mind was weak
Emphasizing vulnerability and weakness of the mind during a challenging period.
Remember when that night felt like eternity
Recalling a night that felt endless.
Remember to breathe
Encouraging the act of breathing, perhaps as a coping mechanism.
Remember me
Pleading to be remembered by the person.
Remember when it seems like you
Recalling a moment that seemed like the last time the person smiled.
smiled for the last time
Reflecting on the unpredictability of life.
Remember life is always unpredictable
Reiterating the importance of remembering to breathe.
Remember to breathe
Repeating the plea to be remembered.
Remember me
Reemphasizing the importance of breathing and being remembered.
You never want to let me down or let me cave in
Reiterating the person's commitment to prevent disappointment and collapse.
You never want to see me throw myself to the wind
Reinforcing the person's desire to discourage self-destructive behavior.
I still remember when I had enough to eat
Recalling a time when basic needs were easily met.
So I will keep on trusting
Expressing continued trust in the person for liberation.
Keep on trusting, keep on trusting, keep on trusting
Repeating the commitment to keep trusting.
You never want to let me down or let me cave in
Reiterating the person's commitment to prevent disappointment and collapse.
You never want to see me throw myself to the wind
Reinforcing the person's desire to discourage self-destructive behavior.
I still remember when I had enough to eat
Recalling a time when basic needs were easily met.
So I will keep on trusting
Expressing continued trust in the person for liberation.
You to free me
Requesting the person to free the speaker.
