Lyrics

You put a vision in me

You inspired a dream or goal within me

A passion so strong

An intense and powerful enthusiasm

That it beckons me still

This aspiration continues to attract me

Calling me desperately, stay

Desiring my presence urgently, pleading for me to stay


Oh, what do I know'

Expressing uncertainty about one's knowledge or understanding

You're rendering beauty

You are creating beauty

From what I dispose

Transforming something I discarded or didn't value

Characteristically so buoyantly

In a way that is typically cheerful and lively

Vitally barely alive

Essentially, just barely alive but crucially so


All that remains

Everything that's left

From off in another direction

From a different path or choice

Is calling me still, stay

Still calling out to me, urging me to stay


Stay, where you are

Emphasizing the importance of staying in the current situation

Time will pass as they fall away

Time will pass, and challenges will diminish

It's a shame to come so far

Expressing regret at coming a long way to witness things slipping away

Just to watch it all slip away

The disappointment of losing what was gained


If you wanna stay, where you are

Repetition of the importance of staying where you are

Time will pass as they fall away

Reiterating that time will pass and challenges will fade

It's a shame to come so far

Expressing regret at the loss after coming a long way

Just to watch it all fade away

The sorrow of witnessing everything slowly disappearing

As you fade away

Highlighting the gradual disappearance or decline


Oh, what do I know'

Repetition of uncertainty about one's knowledge or understanding

You're rendering beauty

Continuing to create beauty from what has been damaged or ruined

From what I destroyed

Transforming what I have destroyed

Characteristically so buoyantly

Cheerfully and lively, but just barely alive

Vitally, barely alive

Essentially alive but in a fragile state


All that remains

What's left from a different path or choice

From off in another direction

Still calling out to me, urging me to stay

Is calling me still, stay

Reiteration of the continued call to stay
