Midnight and Earthshine
Finding Rhythm: Midnight, Earthshine, and Life's Beat
Lyrics
Down and beat up
Feeling defeated and worn down.
Passed over and snubbed
Ignored or rejected by others.
The beginning
Referring to the start or origin of a situation.
Are you kidding
Expressing disbelief or sarcasm.
Too tired to walk on
Physically and emotionally exhausted.
To Lower Allston
Referring to a specific location, Lower Allston.
It's uneasy
Feeling uneasy or uncomfortable.
Is it really
Questioning the reality of the situation.
It depends how you go
Outcome depends on how one approaches it.
And of course who you know
Success influenced by connections and relationships.
Caught it traps
Caught in difficult situations or pitfalls.
Complete collapse
Experiencing a complete breakdown.
You feel like a fresh wound
Feeling emotionally raw and vulnerable.
It's no deathbed
Not a life-threatening situation.
Look overhead
Advising to look at the bigger picture.
You're under a new moon
Symbolizing a fresh start or new beginning.
Midnight and earthshine
Referencing a specific time and illumination from the moon.
Some people just suck
Some people are unpleasant or disappointing.
Sometimes it's dumb luck
Success is sometimes based on chance.
But to despair
Despairing leads to no positive outcomes.
Gets you nowhere
Expressing the futility of giving in to despair.
Spent years there myself
Having experienced hardships or heartbreak.
In Heartbreak Hotel
Metaphorically residing in a place of emotional pain.
But musicians
Artists find inspiration and meaning in their struggles.
Find their rhythm
Encouraging the listener to find their own rhythm or path.
And you'll find yours too
Assuring that everyone will find their way eventually.
Then the rest can go screw
Dismissing the negativity from others once you've found your path.
