Evergreen Revelation: A Journey from Darkness to Life
Lyrics
Now listen friends to this chapter
Introduction to the narrative, addressing the audience.
This is a chorus of second chance
Describing a situation of redemption or a new opportunity.
I used to live my life under darkness
Previous life characterized by darkness and lack of control.
A puppet being made to dance
Feeling manipulated and controlled, akin to a puppet dancing.
I fell under the spell of an old man willow
Being influenced or enchanted by an entity represented as "old man willow."
Whilst out wandering the fields
While exploring the fields, experiencing a transformative moment.
I woke up in evergreen woods
Waking up in the "evergreen woods," a symbolic place of rebirth or renewal.
Baptised by what the light revealed
Undergoing a spiritual cleansing or revelation revealed by light.
There’s a man in the woods offers me some shelter
Encountering a mysterious man in the woods offering refuge.
He lives in a shack over by the evergreen
Describing the man's dwelling place near the evergreen forest.
He asks me in for some tea
Invited for tea, symbolizing a gesture of hospitality.
But I don’t really trust this man standing in front of me
Expressing distrust towards the man, suggesting caution.
He asks my name but I don’t wanna tell him
Reluctant to reveal identity, possibly indicating a sense of vulnerability.
He says its okay son I’m here to help you
The man reassures and expresses willingness to assist.
Now welcome to the evergreen
Formally welcomed into the symbolic "evergreen," a place of transformation.
Welcome to your chance of your life
Emphasizing the significance of the opportunity in the evergreen.
In the evergreen
Reiteration of the transformative nature of the evergreen environment.
Draped in ivy the man took my hand
Describing a connection formed, with the man guiding the narrator.
Laid out how my life had failed
The man discusses past failures, possibly providing guidance or lessons.
He said you can do whatever you wish, this world can be your ideal
The narrator is granted the freedom to shape their destiny.
Life can be your best delusion
Life is presented as a subjective reality, with the potential for illusion.
A rebellion to banal exclusion
Encouragement to rebel against mundane and exclusionary aspects of life.
He explained how he never knew this until
The man shares a personal revelation after waking up in the evergreen woods.
He woke up in evergreen woods
Reiteration of the transformative experience in the evergreen environment.
There’s a man in the woods offers me some shelter
Similar encounter with the man offering shelter is revisited.
He lives in a shack over by the evergreen
Reiteration of the man's dwelling near the evergreen forest.
He asks me in for some tea
Re-invited for tea, continuing the theme of hospitality.
But I don’t really trust this man standing in front of me
Continued caution and mistrust towards the man.
He asks my name but I don’t wanna tell him
Reluctance to disclose identity persists.
He says its okay son I’m here to help you
The man reassures and reiterates the intention to help.
Now welcome to the evergreen
Final welcome to the evergreen, emphasizing its significance.
Welcome to your chance of your life
Reiteration of the life-changing potential in the evergreen.
In the evergreen
Closing acknowledgment of the transformative opportunity in the evergreen.
