Chasing Shadows: Finding Purpose Amidst Changing City Lights
Lyrics
Do you ever feel like it’s for nothin’?
Expressing a sense of futility or lack of purpose.
Do you ever feel like you are stuck, second in line?
Feeling trapped or undervalued, possibly in a subordinate position.
Do you ever feel like you are nothin’?
Conveying a feeling of insignificance or worthlessness.
Do you ever feel like going back from time to time?
Reflecting on the desire to revisit the past.
Just to find…
Introduction to the motivation behind revisiting the past.
That is isn’t the same, all the faces have changed,
Highlighting the change in surroundings and people, suggesting a sense of nostalgia or loss.
Movin’ steady though the old down city lights where I’d spent most of my nights.
Describing movement through the city lights, possibly recalling memories of the past.
Do you ever feel like it’s for nothin’?
Reiteration of the feeling of futility or lack of purpose.
Do you ever feel like you are stuck, second in line?
Repeating the sense of being stuck or overlooked in a secondary role.
Do you ever feel like you are nothin’?
Re-emphasizing the feeling of being insignificant or unnoticed.
Do you ever feel like going back from time to time?
Reiterating the desire to revisit the past for exploration or understanding.
Just to find…
Revisiting the motivation behind going back in time.
That is isn’t the same, all the faces have changed,
Stressing the theme of change, particularly in the people and faces encountered.
Movin’ steady though the old down city lights where I’d spent most of my nights.
Continuation of the journey through city lights, possibly reminiscing about the past.
But is isn’t the same, all the faces have changed,
Reiteration of the impact of change, emphasizing the altered faces and surroundings.
Movin’ steady though the old down city lights where I’d spent most of my nights.
Continued movement through the city lights, suggesting a persistent journey despite changes.
But is isn’t the same, all the faces have changed,
Repeating the notion that things are not the same, underscoring the theme of change.
Movin’ steady though the old down city lights where I’d spent most of my nights.
Persisting in the steady movement through the city lights, emphasizing the journey's constancy.
(I’m movin’ on. I’m movin’ on.)
Expressing determination to move forward and leave the past behind.
