Burning Timber
Burning Timber: Unveiling Love's Ashen Path
Lyrics
Where is everybody going
Questioning the direction or destination of everyone's journey.
Always learning never knowing
Constantly acquiring knowledge but lacking understanding.
Try to stop the world from turning
Attempting to halt or control the progression of life.
But it won't slow down
Despite efforts, life continues at its own pace.
I was the one you gave your heart to
Referencing being a recipient of someone's love, but questioning its value or outcome.
But after all, what did it get you
Reflecting on the aftermath of receiving affection and its perceived lack of meaningful results.
It was enough to put an end to
The love received was sufficient to extinguish escalating conflicts or emotions.
The rising flames
Alludes to calming or resolving intense situations.
We stand like burning timber
Feeling consumed or overwhelmed by circumstances beyond control, akin to burning timber.
Helpless among the cinders
Helpless amidst the aftermath or ruins.
I prayed for rain when the sky was blue
Expressing a desire for relief or a solution when things seemed fine or manageable.
What else could I do
Acknowledging limited options in a challenging situation.
We need to work our way around it
Advocating finding a way to navigate difficulties rather than trying to change them.
And let it be the way we found it
Acceptance of situations as they are, preserving their original state.
The more that everything keeps changing
Highlighting that constant change may lead to diminishing returns or benefits.
The less we are gaining
Suggesting that excessive change may result in reduced overall gains or progress.
We stand like burning timber
Reiterating the feeling of helplessness amidst turmoil.
Helpless among the cinders
Emphasizing the vulnerability and powerlessness in the aftermath.
I prayed for rain when the sky was blue
Reiterating a plea for help or resolution when conditions seem stable.
What else could I do
Highlighting limited options in a seemingly calm situation.
You build me up to cut me down
Describing a cycle of elevation and subsequent disappointment or downfall.
You fight me tooth and nail
Referring to a persistent struggle or conflict, even when aligned.
Now hand in hand we walk alone
Walking together but feeling isolated or detached in challenging circumstances.
Along this blazing trail
Navigating through a difficult path or situation.
