Embracing Change: The Liberation Journey in 'Marine' by The Nagging Doubts
Lyrics
I’ve been held down for so long,
I've been restrained or oppressed for a significant duration.
Under the thumb I couldn’t breathe
I felt controlled to the point of suffocation.
It’s kept me down
This control has kept me suppressed.
Hasn’t shown me around
It hasn't allowed me to explore or experience life fully.
I sat in dull stagnation and dreamt about what’s to come for me
I remained in a state of boredom, envisioning a better future.
Springboard right out
Now, I have the opportunity to leap forward.
Shake off any doubt
I will cast away any uncertainty or hesitation.
I’ve got the feeling I’ve stepped into,
I sense that I've entered a new and transformative stage.
A brand new phase in time
This marks the beginning of a different period.
There’s something inside me that’s new at play,
There's a novel aspect within me influencing my actions.
Because my perceptions are thrown away
My previous perceptions or beliefs are discarded.
Take my hand as we go and talk and glide right through the streets
Join me in a journey through the streets, let's talk and glide.
Nowhere to be
No specific destination; open to exploration.
Things to see
There are interesting things to observe and experience.
Electric energy anticipation flows all through the veins in me
An energetic anticipation flows through me like electricity.
Let it escape
Allow this energy to be released.
And regenerate
Let it replenish and renew.
I’ve got the feeling I’ve stepped into,
Reiteration of entering a new transformative phase.
A brand new phase in time
This reinforces the idea of a significant change in time.
There’s something inside me that’s new at play,
A new aspect within me continues to influence.
Because my perceptions are thrown away
Continued dismissal of old perceptions or beliefs.
I found you,
I discovered you, spending time in a non-productive manner.
Wasting time
(Possibly an observation about someone's idle state)
(The birds are singing louder, just for me)
(The environment responds positively to my presence)
I found you, wasting time
Reiteration of finding someone wasting time.
(Blue skies make me happy, set me free)
(Positive emotions and freedom associated with blue skies)
