Salvation
Ripples of Redemption: Navigating Life's Challenges in 'Salvation'
Lyrics
There's a ripple on the ocean
Metaphorical reference to a disturbance or change in the usual state of affairs.
And it's causing a commotion
The disturbance is causing a stir or disturbance.
You'd better get out of the way
Advice to take action and move away from potential danger.
The water level's rising
Indication of an increasing threat or challenge.
And it's blocking the horizon
The threat is becoming more visible and imposing.
You can never rule out foul play
Suggestion of a possible intentional harm or deceit.
Get up to higher ground
Encouragement to seek higher and safer ground.
And hope that you're found
Hoping for rescue or safety in a challenging situation.
It's time to turn and run
An urgent call to action, advising to flee or escape.
Standing on a corner waiting for salvation to come
Metaphorical waiting for a positive change or rescue.
There's a fire on the mountain
Another metaphorical reference to a threatening situation.
And it's spitting like a fountain
Describing the intensity of the threat with vivid imagery.
Best to give it right of way
Advising caution and giving way to a formidable challenge.
The temperature is rising
Highlighting the escalation of the threat, with an expected response.
And it's rather unsurprising
Expressing that people are reacting predictably to the danger.
That everybody's running away
Further emphasis on the urgency of the situation.
Get your finger out
Urging quick action, leaving no time for indecision.
No time to mess about
Emphasizing the seriousness of the situation and the need to act.
You'd better turn and run
Reiterating the advice to turn and run for safety.
Standing on a corner waiting for salvation to come
Continuation of the metaphorical waiting for positive change.
Something in the air
Sense of something transformative in the atmosphere.
Better be aware
Awareness and preparedness for impending change.
Change is on the way
Anticipation of change slowly approaching.
Slowly creeping in
Change depicted as inevitable, with a hint of irony.
Karma with a grin
Karma, a concept of consequences, portrayed with a mischievous smile.
And stop
A sudden stop, perhaps emphasizing a need to reflect or act.
Standing on a corner waiting for salvation to come
Repetition of waiting for positive change or rescue.
There's a point to every action
Asserting that every action has a purpose or consequence.
When its time for a reaction
Recognition of the need for a reaction to challenges.
To problems that are coming your way
Addressing problems and the necessity of responding to them.
Forgot about the small shit
Advising to prioritize and not get bogged down by minor issues.
The cat, the dog, the refit
List of trivial matters that can distract from important issues.
Continue with the rest of your day
Suggestion to continue with life despite challenges.
You only get one shot
Emphasizing the importance of making the most of opportunities.
And after that you're not
Highlighting the finite nature of chances in life.
So try and have some fun
Suggesting the importance of enjoying life amid challenges.
Standing on a corner waiting for salvation to come
Reiteration of waiting for positive change or rescue.
Standing on a corner waiting for salvation to come
Continuation of the metaphorical waiting for positive change.
Standing on a corner waiting for salvation to come
Repetition, perhaps emphasizing the persistence of hope for salvation.
