Misfits
Embracing the Storm: Unraveling the Meaning in The Stone Souls' Misfits
Lyrics
The asphalt shivers as the desert sun goes down
The asphalt reacts to the cooling desert sun.
While the clouds they gather as our shadows fade from the ground
Clouds form as our shadows disappear.
I'm tired and wide awake
Expressing weariness and alertness simultaneously.
We are done here for today
The day's activities are concluded.
When the lightning cuts trough the sky
Lightning splits the sky sharply.
Like the edge of a knife
Comparing lightning to the sharpness of a knife's edge.
We are misfits running out of time
Identifying as misfits running out of time.
For nothing can live unless something dies
Highlighting the connection between life and death.
We are basically strangers, but it feels like we've met before
Despite being strangers, there's a familiar connection.
And hey, I'm not caught up in fear but I know 'when it rains it pours'
Avoiding fear but acknowledging challenges.
So all I'm asking is
Pondering how to navigate life.
How do you just live?
Pose a question about the essence of living.
When the lightning cuts trough the sky
Repetition of lightning imagery.
Like the edge of a knife
Reiterating the sharpness of life's challenges.
We are misfits running out of time
Reiteration of being misfits running out of time.
For nothing can live unless something dies
Re-emphasizing the link between life and death.
We're just holding on to whatever we got used to
Clutching onto familiar habits despite difficulties.
We can't hardly keep up, doing what we do
Struggling to keep pace with daily routines.
So all I'm asking for
Asking for a refuge from life's challenges.
Is a shelter from the storm
Seeking shelter from the metaphorical storm.
With all the madness in the sky
Amidst chaos in life, seeking emotional support.
I need you to hold me tight
Expressing the need for close emotional connection.
We are misfits running out of time
Reiteration of being misfits running out of time.
And nothing can live unless something dies
Restating the connection between life and death.
