Navigating Life's Murky Waters: Thomas Flynn's Poetic Reflections
Lyrics
Moving through mud
Struggling to progress, facing difficulty
There's a new stain around an old sock
An indication of a new problem in an old situation
Tilting my head up
Looking upwards, possibly seeking guidance or perspective
Hear a thud, a falling corn stalk
Hearing a sudden, impactful noise, signifying an abrupt change
The sound of farming swaying
The noise of agricultural work, suggesting a connection to nature or tradition
Hunger is infatuating
Desire or craving has a powerful hold
I know a truth I knew a love
Having knowledge but lost love
My god is innovative
Belief in an innovative or creative god
They tell me lies and I believe them
Being deceived repeatedly and believing falsehoods
Till my heart is sated
Fulfillment until satisfaction is achieved
I want to hold you want to know you all along the way
Desire for closeness and understanding throughout the journey
The thought of caring is the only thing that's keeping me sane
Feeling that caring for something is preserving mental stability
Is this the truth, is this the truth, dear lord
Questioning the validity of a situation, seeking truth
Is it okay that I don't know, okay that I don't know
Acceptance of uncertainty, questioning if it's permissible
Is this the truth, is this the truth
Reiterating the quest for truth amid uncertainty
Is it okay that I don't know, okay that I don't know
Repeating acceptance of not knowing amid questioning
Is this the truth, is this the truth, dear lord
Continued questioning of truth and uncertainty
Is it okay that I don't know, okay that I don't know
Continued acceptance of uncertainty
Moving through mud
Repetition of struggling to progress, facing difficulty
There's a new stain around an old sock
Reiteration of a new problem in an old situation
Tilting my head up
Repeating the act of seeking guidance or perspective
Hear a thud, this life is too much
Feeling overwhelmed by the challenges of life
The sound of indecision
Noise representing uncertainty and hesitation
Disbelief and new ground
Struggling to believe amidst new circumstances
I keep on walking
Continuing to move forward despite challenges
Try to make my mom and dad proud
Striving for parental approval
I keep
Continued persistence or repetition
I keep
