Lyrics
It's time to find a clearing
It is time to seek a space free from obstacles or confusion.
To wrestle in the dark
To struggle or engage in a challenging situation in the absence of light.
The maze among the lights
Navigating through confusion represented by lights resembling a maze.
See the nodes that emerge in the face
Observing the patterns or points that become apparent in one's face during this exploration.
It's tie to quit the race
It is time to withdraw from a competitive situation.
To carry nothing forward
To not carry anything from the past into the future.
For we owe it to ourselves
Acknowledging the responsibility to oneself to let go of the past.
To bury yesterday, leave it quaking in the earth
To bury the events of yesterday, leaving them behind and unsettled.
If we don't know what we're speaking
If we lack understanding in our communication.
And we are not who we've been
If our identities have undergone a significant change.
There's a chance we're only waking
There is a possibility that we are just starting to awaken from a dream about a divine entity within us.
From a dream of the god in our breast
The dream involves a god-like figure residing within our hearts.
How will we be in that waking?
Questioning how we will be upon fully waking from this dream.
How will we be in the womb?
Contemplating our state while still in the metaphorical womb.
We may all begin aquatic
We all begin in a state resembling aquatic existence.
But we leave only dust from our bones
However, our legacy is not aquatic; we leave behind only dust from our bones.
You won't find me where I fall
Emphasizing that one cannot be found in the place where they fail or falter.
You won't find me where I fall
(Repetition of the statement, underscoring the point.)
We may all begin aquatic
Reiteration that our initial state is aquatic in nature.
But we leave through the fire for our homes
Despite our aquatic beginning, we depart through the transformative experience of fire to reach our homes.
