Lyrics
Somebody put me in the picture
Desire to understand a situation or context.
From wherever I was prior, before
Reflecting on the past and a sense of origin.
To walk among the whispers
Exploring a mysterious or secretive environment.
Through a memory, a corridor
Navigating through memories and experiences.
Where I see that I want something
Discovering a new desire or aspiration.
That I didn't want before
Realizing a change in personal preferences.
I've seen it wanted by another
Observing someone else's desire, influencing personal wants.
And that made me want it more
External desire intensifies personal longing.
Ah ha to be the witness
Expressing a commitment to witnessing secrets and memories.
To the secret and the memory
Being part of hidden knowledge and past experiences.
I was staring at the action
Transition from passive observation to active involvement.
Now the action is a part of me
Assimilating experiences into one's identity.
I swear I didn't do nothing
Claiming innocence despite being involved.
But there ain't nobody accusing you
No direct accusations but a sense of guilt or suspicion.
Of the crime you're witness to
Being witness to a crime without personal involvement.
Somebody call another witness
Calling for additional witnesses to testify.
And put his hand over the Bible
Invoking a solemn oath for truthfulness.
Vividly they saw forgiveness
Others witnessed forgiveness, emphasizing redemption.
Quietly they chose survival
Choosing survival in the face of adversity.
Tried to look at the big picture
Attempting to understand the broader context of life.
But it just keeps on getting bigger
Challenges and complexities continue to grow.
And now soon love will hide us all
Anticipating that love will eventually provide refuge.
