Somebody Out There
Finding Light in Tears: The Calling's Emotional Journey
Lyrics
Well the scene begins a little girl is crying
Introduction: A little girl is crying.
And the light in the hallway is dim
The hallway is dim, setting a somber atmosphere.
And she sits back thinks of the reason
The girl reflects on the reasons for her struggles.
Why nothing will fall into place
Frustration as things are not falling into place for her.
She gets more and more curious with every day
Her curiosity grows with each day.
More furious in every way
Increasing anger in her reactions.
And she screams out loud
Expressing her frustration with a loud scream.
Why is it happening to me?
Questioning why difficulties are happening to her.
And the answer is it's meant to be
The answer suggests it's part of her destiny.
Well she's on her knees
She is on her knees, begging for a change.
And begging please
Pleading desperately for something better.
She wonder if there's somebody out there
Wondering if there's someone who can make things wrong.
To make things wrong
Questioning if there's someone to make things right.
To make things right
Suggesting uncertainty about the outcome.
It might be
Acknowledging the possibility of a solution.
That there's somebody out there
Reiterating the hope that someone is out there.
She moves amongst the crowd
She navigates through a crowd, observing others.
The people they walk by
People pass by, and she questions the inevitability of death.
She questions why they'll have to die
Raising existential questions about life.
Is it part of our lives
Contemplating the role of mortality in our existence.
So beautiful and precious
Highlighting the precious nature of life.
She knows that she shouldn't be afraid
Despite fear, she knows she shouldn't be afraid.
Of all this
Facing challenges and uncertainties.
Well she's on her knees
Similar to lines 11-12, repeating the plea for change.
And begging please
Continuing to beg desperately for improvement.
She wonder if there's somebody out there
Reiterating the search for someone out there.
To make things wrong
Asking for someone to make things wrong.
To make things right
Requesting someone to make things right.
It might be
Expressing the uncertainty of the outcome.
That there's somebody out there
Re-emphasizing the hope for someone's presence.
There's times that she hates you
Acknowledging mixed emotions towards an unspecified 'you.'
There's times that she thanks you
Expressing gratitude and hope for understanding.
And hopes that you might understand
Recognizing the difficulties of life but signaling hope.
It gets hard down here
Describing the challenges faced in life.
So many things to fear
Pointing out numerous fears but seeing them as signs of proximity.
But its all just a sign that you're near
Interpreting challenges as signs of a divine presence.
Well she's on her knees
Repetition of the plea for change on her knees.
And begging please
Continuing the desperate plea for improvement.
She wonder if there's somebody out there
Reiterating the search for someone out there.
To make things wrong
Asking for someone to make things wrong.
To make things right
Requesting someone to make things right.
It might be
Expressing the uncertainty of the outcome.
That there's somebody out there
Re-emphasizing the hope for someone's presence.
