Island of Reflection: Sister Sandy's Emotional Odyssey Unveiled
Lyrics
Stranded on an island
Feeling isolated or alone, separated from others.
In your mind you know it's violent
Aware that inner thoughts or struggles can be intense or aggressive.
Finding out what makes our heads up
Exploring the origins of thoughts and ideas that shape perspectives.
They're filled with all the rights
Heads filled with both right and wrong concepts.
And all the wrongs
Recognizing moral ambiguities; the futility of blindly following.
It's pointless go along
It's pointless to conform mindlessly.
You watch your mouth
Being cautious about what is said.
You speak with confidence
Speaking confidently, projecting self-assuredness.
Making yourself seem so lovely
Creating a positive image of oneself.
So if you have pain
Suggesting that experiencing pain may be a consequence of actions.
Well then you probably deserve it
Accepting responsibility for one's pain.
And the last time that I saw her
Recalling the last encounter with a person.
Was the last time that I heard this
Associating a particular memory with a specific sound or song.
So if you have pain
Reiterating the idea that pain may be deserved.
Well then you probably deserve it in some way
Reinforcing the concept that pain could be justified.
You wait
Repetition of waiting, implying patience or anticipation.
You wait
-You wait
-He reaches over
Describing a person seeking substances for self-reflection.
And he grabs his stash
-He gets in his daily dose
-So he can better understand the self
-She reaches over to her nightstand
Depicting someone using writing to understand and process emotions.
And she grabs her pen
-She writes down all of her thoughts now
-So she can understand how she felt back then
-So if you have pain
Reiterating the theme of deserved pain based on actions.
Well then you probably deserve it
-And the last time that I saw her
-Was the last time that I heard this
-So if you have pain
-Well then you probably deserve it in some way
-You wait
Repetition of waiting, suggesting a recurring theme.
You wait
-You wait
-I lie down here for rest
Reflecting on the creative process and the importance of taking it easy.
And I'll begin to guess
-How these machines came about
-Drift off
-Visualizing
-Unmeaningly I'll hear the noises
-But fact is the fear
-That keeps these walls in tact
-So relax
-And take a deep one
-Won't come across it
-With a pen and paper
-Ideas come easy
-Don't rush it
-Saver
-I'm here
-So just steer
-Go out of perspective
-And just take it easy
-Walk around until you're ready
-Find a seat
-And watch it all come down
-Down
Watching the outcome or consequences unfold.
