Left Behind
Left Behind: The Harsh Grasp of Time's Passage
Lyrics
You keep talking but you’ve got no words
You continue talking, but your words lack substance or significance.
You keep falling through the earth
You are consistently experiencing failure or setbacks.
Saw what you wanted and now it’s gone
You saw something you desired, but it is now lost or no longer attainable.
All of your stalling you took too long
Your hesitation or delay has resulted in missed opportunities; you've taken too much time.
The cruel hand of time
Refers to the harsh and relentless nature of time.
The place that you’d go
Describes a specific place or situation that held significance.
You got left behind
You were abandoned or neglected, left behind by others.
So get there alone
You must reach that place or situation on your own; there's no assistance.
The cruel hand of time
Reiteration of the harsh impact of time on the mentioned place or situation.
The place that you’d go
Reiteration of the specific place or situation that had importance.
You got left behind
You were left behind, abandoned in that place or situation.
So get there alone
You must reach that place or situation alone; there's no companionship.
Keep on working as you do
Encouragement to continue working diligently.
Don’t disturb ‘em they’ll put the screws on you
Advice not to disrupt or interfere, as consequences may be severe.
You can pray for answers but don’t ask why
You can seek solutions but avoid questioning why things happen.
You can keep believing what is in your mind.
Encourages maintaining belief in what is in one's own mind, despite external influences.
The cruel hand of time
Reiteration of the relentless impact of time on the mentioned place or situation.
The place that you’d go
Reiteration of the specific place or situation that had significance.
You got left behind
You were abandoned or neglected, left behind in that place or situation.
So get there alone
You must reach that place or situation alone; there's no support.
The cruel hand of time
Emphasizes again the harsh and unyielding nature of time.
The place that you’d go
Reiteration of the specific place or situation that once had importance.
You got left behind
You were left behind, abandoned in that place or situation.
So get there alone
You must reach that place or situation alone; there's no assistance or companionship.
