The Crippled Lion
Journey of Solitude: The Crippled Lion's Uncharted Path
Lyrics
Slowly I walk through the gently falling rain
Reflecting on a leisurely walk in the rain
Knowing that I will never pass this way again
Aware that this experience is unique and won't be repeated
Never wondering why
Not questioning the situation or seeking reasons
Teardrops chafing my eyes
Tears welling up, expressing emotional distress
Longing to be where the noted kisses fall
Desiring to be in a special place where memorable kisses happen
Lingering and still while silently the tell their all
Remaining in the moment, listening to unspoken confessions
Blue is the color of the sun
Associating the color blue with the sun
And nothing stops till everything is done
Continuing until all tasks are completed
Now my whole world opens up in different rhymes and tunes
Embracing a new perspective with varied experiences
With the highways making up the verse
Metaphorically describing life's journey as verses on highways
And then suddenly I see the light of something called the moon
Seeing the light of the moon, a symbol of realization
And though my path is planned it's not rehersed
Having a planned path but acknowledging its unpredictability
So I move along to the next thing on the list
Moving forward to the next item on the agenda
Knowing full well that some of them just don't exist
Aware that some goals may be unattainable
But I am finally alone
Feeling a sense of solitude and independence
And where my foot steps down is where it's home
Considering wherever one steps as home
Now my whole world opens up in different rhymes and tunes
Reiteration of a transformed world with diverse experiences
With the highways making up the verse
Reiterating the metaphor of life's journey as verses on highways
And then suddenly I see the light of something called the moon
Reaffirming the realization represented by the moon's light
And though my path is planned it's not rehersed
Emphasizing the planned yet unpredictable nature of the path
So I move along to the next thing on the list
Continuing the journey with an awareness of uncertain goals
Knowing full well that some of them just don't exist
Acknowledging the existence of unattainable objectives
But I am finally alone
Reaffirming a sense of solitude and independence
And where my foot steps down is where it's home
Defining home as wherever one chooses to step
