Straw Man
Unraveling Truth: Straw Man's Journey Revealed
Lyrics
A figure floats down this same road
A mysterious figure moves along the same path
One hand empty, both eyes closed
Carrying nothing in one hand, both eyes shut
Straw man I know you'll come home
Referring to the figure as a "straw man" and anticipating their return
The light is stuck beneath your glow
The brightness is trapped beneath the straw man's presence
Shaken ground bears truth untold
The ground, disturbed, reveals hidden truths
Bring lies to light to lift the load
Exposing lies brings relief and lightens the burden
Straw man's lungs heave heavy and slow
The straw man's breathing is labored and slow
Mind at ease, story unfolds
The mind is calm as the narrative unfolds
See your shoulder
Observing a change in the straw man's shoulder
Getting colder somehow
Sensing a decrease in warmth or connection
Truth unravels
The truth is revealed, unwinding like a thread
From your thread
The truth comes apart from the straw man's narrative
But it's too late now
Realizing that it's too late to change the revealed truth

Straw man
Repeating "Straw man," concluding the emphasis on the central theme
