The Life of the Just
Echoes of Just: Unveiling Life's Dusty SymphonyLyrics
You think that you trusted the life of the just
You believe that you have trusted a just and righteous life
Falling around, the future sound
Falling into chaos, anticipating the future sound
It's all become dust
All has turned to dust, implying decay or destruction
Here we discuss the life of the just
This is a discussion about the life of the just
The only sound we believe in now
The only sound believed in now is the departing one
Is the one that is leaving
Emphasizing the significance of the sound that is leaving
Sleeping dogs lie at the back of my mind
Thoughts or issues are dormant, waiting in the background
Pulling my fingers and biding their time
Something is restraining or influencing thoughts, waiting for the right moment
So gather it up, just to scatter away
Gather things only to scatter them away, a cycle of chaos
A grip so tight like Wilhelm Reich
A powerful grip, likened to Wilhelm Reich, used to assert dominance
To show me up
To expose or reveal something
So lay it down, just let her down
Place it down gently, allow something to happen or fail
I sense your shoulders start to sag
Observing someone's burden causing physical and emotional strain
Stow it in the overhead compartment now
Store it away, perhaps to avoid dealing with it directly
Or lay it on the ground must you carry the bag?
Questioning the need to carry a burden, urging to let go
It's a scattered crusade this thing that we've made
Describing a scattered and disorganized crusade or movement
And it blocks out the sun, cause it's so enormous
It overshadows everything, blocking out positivity
I know that it sometimes weighs a ton
Acknowledging the weight of the burden, sometimes overwhelming
But in a certain light it's gorgeous
In certain perspectives, the burden appears beautiful or meaningful
Ever on up the hill bailed up with a weight unspoken
Continuing uphill despite an unspoken burden or challenge
And it was always meant to spill
It was destined to overflow or be revealed
And maybe more rock than Sisyphus
Comparing the burden to Sisyphus, a mythological figure condemned to repeat a task
Roll it up
A call to roll up the burden, potentially indicating a resolution or acceptance
