Days Undone
Unraveling Life's Tapestry: Days Undone
Lyrics
The sinner needs his feet
The sinner requires movement (feet) to engage in a race that has never been won.
To run the race never won
Highlighting the perpetual struggle or challenges faced in the race of life.
And the preacher needs his choir
The preacher relies on a choir to sing songs, possibly representing spiritual guidance.
To sing songs for setting suns
These songs are for the moments when the sun is setting, symbolizing the end of something.
Said my hallelujahs
Expressing praise or joy (hallelujahs) without finding peace or rest.
And still don't sleep a wink
Despite the expressions of praise, the speaker struggles to find tranquility and rest.
In a room in the attic of the world
Describing a location in the world, emphasizing a sense of isolation or detachment.
Oh, what to think
Reflecting on thoughts in the room and questioning what to believe or conclude.
Of days undone
Pondering the significance of incomplete or unresolved days.
Oh, what to think now, baby
Continuing the contemplation on the meaning of life and experiences.
All the days coming undone
Acknowledging the unraveling or falling apart of all days.
I lack no vision
Asserting a lack of clarity or understanding about things unseen.
For what I never see
Despite lacking vision, decisions are made and guided by a gentle force.
And all my decisions
Decisions are influenced by a subtle and gentle breeze.
Float on a little breeze
Highlighting the influence of intangible factors on decision-making.
The world's been bleeding lightning
Describing a world experiencing turmoil or chaos symbolized by bleeding lightning.
To wash away like rain
Comparing the cleansing effect of lightning to rain, suggesting a desire for renewal.
And wars lead all to dying
Wars lead to death, and those handling the deceased need compensation.
Undertakers need to get paid
Underscoring the economic aspect of dealing with death and funerals.
Oh, what to think
Returning to the contemplation of incomplete or unresolved days.
Of days undone
Persisting uncertainty and reflection on the meaning of life's experiences.
Oh, what to think now, baby
Continuing to question the significance of all days coming undone.
All the days coming undone
Reiterating the theme of days unraveling or falling apart.
