Letting Go
Embracing Shadows: The Bittersweet Journey of Letting Go
Lyrics
It's time to let you go
Expressing the need to release someone or something.
In the dark, I'm waiting in the cold
Waiting in a challenging and uncomfortable situation.
You know
Acknowledgment of understanding.
Full night drive's pretty far
Reference to a long night drive.
Then again, pretty close
Contrasting perspectives on distance, highlighting ambiguity.
It's time to let you go
Reiteration of the decision to let go.
The fire's for the lies you never want to know
The intensity of emotions and hidden truths revealed by fire.
But we know
A shared knowledge of undisclosed realities.
And the marks on the walls
Marks on the walls as a metaphor for past experiences.
I can sense some fire getting close
Sensing the approach of a significant event or change.
In the lonely night
A reference to a period of solitude and reflection.
Fire's getting low, you don't really know
The diminishing intensity of a situation, not fully perceived.
'Til you know
Understanding the truth only when it becomes evident.
Now I don't know
Uncertainty or lack of knowledge about a situation.
In the lonely night
Repetition of the theme of loneliness at night.
Cars getting close
The approach of external factors or influences.
Fire's getting low
The diminishing significance or impact of a situation.
Do you really know
Doubt about the depth of understanding or awareness.
All your songs well they touched me to
Recognition of the emotional impact of songs.
Bitter core
A bitter and essential core within.
Head like a drone
Comparing one's mindset to a drone, possibly monotonous.
We're not getting young
A reflection on aging and the passing of time.
No, tonight I walk with these heavy thoughts
Carrying burdensome thoughts during a night walk.
They're getting old
The accumulation of burdens and experiences.
There's your counting on
Reference to counting or relying on someone.
When this body's a waste of blood
The body as a vessel for emotions and experiences.
Read the braille on the aching skies
Metaphorically reading the pain in the sky.
Feverish dreams needing cyclical thoughts
Dreams marked by intensity and recurring patterns.
You'll be somewhat close to those
Being close to challenging experiences.
Are we defined by blood
Exploring the impact of one's heritage or origins.
The tale of raging skies
A narrative of turbulent and intense life experiences.
I was never one to get a lesson
Not conforming to conventional learning.
It's hard to know
The difficulty of understanding or making decisions.
It's time to let go
A final affirmation of the need to release.
