Solid Ground
Finding Strength: Thomas Duxbury's Journey to Solid Ground
Lyrics
Run for the river, run for the sea
Expresses the urgency to escape or find refuge by running towards the river and sea.
One of these days I wanna set you free
Desires to liberate someone in the future.
On the line of sight that I'd never seen
Refers to a perspective or situation that was previously unknown.
There ain't no sight of a place to flee
Indicates a lack of visible escape options or safety.
Run for the river, run for the sea
Reiterates the urgency to run towards the river and sea.
Ain't got time to look back and see
Emphasizes the lack of time to reflect on the past.
The light of a time when I went to be
Recalls a time when the speaker aspired to be something.
A man on a mission full of misery
Describes a person on a difficult mission filled with suffering.
It's a long way down
Highlights the challenges ahead, symbolizing a difficult journey.
On the next time round
Suggests the repetition of a challenging experience.
But I hope you've found
Expresses a wish for the listener to discover something meaningful.
Your Solid Ground
Refers to the concept of finding stability or security.
Run for the river, run for the sea
Reiterates the call to run towards the river and sea.
I'm gonna find some place that I've never been
Expresses a desire to explore new places.
Cause there ain't no place I'd rather be
States a preference for being in a particular place over others.
Than the line of sight of a mystery
Emphasizes the attraction of the unknown and mysterious.
It's a long way down
Repeats the idea of facing challenges and difficulties.
On the next time round
Indicates the recurrence of a challenging journey.
But I hope you've found
Reiterates the hope for the listener to find something significant.
Your Solid Ground
Reaffirms the idea of discovering stability or a sense of home.
It's a long way down
Repeats the notion of a lengthy and challenging descent.
On the next time round
Reiterates the idea of a repeated difficult experience.
But I hope you've found
Restates the hope for the listener to find something meaningful.
Your Solid Ground
Reemphasizes the concept of finding stability or security.
It's a long way down
Repeats the notion of a challenging descent in the future.
On the next time round
Reiterates the idea of a recurring difficult journey.
But I hope you've found
Reaffirms the hope for the listener to discover something significant.
Your Solid Ground
Concludes with the idea of finding stability or a sense of home in the midst of challenges.
