Lyrics
Well I'll carry the weight of everyone
Expressing a willingness to bear the burdens and struggles of others.
And all of the things I left undone
Reflecting on unfinished tasks or unresolved issues left behind.
'Til the fires that took away Portland's sun
Referencing a past event (fires in Portland) that darkened the atmosphere.
Were breaking at last, then finally passed
Suggesting that the difficulties finally subsided, allowing clarity to emerge.
And showed me where I need to be
Discovering the correct path or purpose after overcoming challenges.
It's all so familiar
Highlighting the familiarity of the situation except for the journey back.
Except the road back, but then
Noting the unfamiliarity of the return journey, raising questions about intent.
Guess that was my intent?
Suggesting uncertainty or ambiguity about the motivation behind the journey.
The day I got lost again
Describing a specific moment of being lost again, possibly in a metaphorical sense.
And you could find me if you wanted to
Indicating the possibility of being found if someone actively seeks.
But I'll drive you back around the bend (drive you back around the)
Driving someone back around a bend, possibly a metaphor for a confusing or complex situation.
Looking for a dead end
Searching for a dead end, implying a futile or purposeless pursuit.
The day I got lost again
Reiterating the theme of getting lost again on a specific day.
Head down, where eyes won't meet them
Describing a state of avoidance or evasion with lowered gaze.
Back and forth, without reason
Moving back and forth without clear rationale or purpose.
Like a ghost that's haunting Glisan
Comparing oneself to a haunting ghost in a specific location (Glisan).
Reminded me of me
Seeing a reflection of one's past self in the haunting experience.
And what I used to be
Expressing a desire to reclaim a previous identity or state of being.
And maybe I could be again
Contemplating the possibility of returning to a former self.
It's all so familiar
Reiterating the familiarity of the overall situation, including the unfamiliar return.
Except the road back, but then
Acknowledging the lack of clarity or familiarity in the journey back.
Guess that was my intent?
Repeating the uncertainty about intent in getting lost again.
The day I got lost again
Recalling the specific day of getting lost again.
And you could find me if you wanted to
Highlighting the potential for being found by someone who actively searches.
But I'll drive you back around the bend (drive you back around the)
Driving someone back around a bend, emphasizing the complexity of the situation.
Better than a dead end
Choosing a route better than a dead end, suggesting a more meaningful direction.
Today I got lost again
Reiterating the experience of getting lost on a specific day.
