Free Hugs
Embracing Loneliness: Free Hugs, Love, and the Human Song
Lyrics
Well you fill your days with a long schedule
Expressing the busyness of life, occupied with a packed schedule.
Come time to breathe, you don't even know how
When it's time to relax, there's a lack of awareness or knowledge about how to do so.
Kids in white T-shirts giving free hugs
Describing a scene of people, possibly children, in white T-shirts offering free hugs.
In the name of Jesus, the gypsy boy shrugs
Mentioning a symbolic gesture of free hugs in the context of Jesus, with a shrugged reaction from a gypsy boy.
Sometimes I feel so lonely
Expressing a sense of isolation or solitude despite being surrounded by love.
With all this love all around me
Contrasting the loneliness felt with the presence of love in the surroundings.
Singing is human but the birds do it too
Highlighting the universality of singing as a human activity, comparing it to birdsong.
And there's nothing better than waking to the Red Robin's tune
Emphasizing the beauty of waking up to the song of a Red Robin.
Well the wind blows softly but the waves crash so strong
Describing the gentle wind and powerful waves, using them as metaphors for life's challenges.
And it rattles your wind pipes and your voice sings its song
The impact of life's challenges on one's voice and the expression of personal songs.
Sometime I feel so lonely
Reiterating the feeling of loneliness despite the presence of love.
With all this love all around me
Acknowledging the paradox of feeling lonely amidst a backdrop of love.
Well you know the feeling when it quenches your thirst
Describing the fulfilling sensation akin to quenching thirst but not for a liquid, rather for the air we breathe.
But it's not liquid you're after, it's the air in your lungs
Highlighting the importance of air in our lungs, suggesting a deeper need for emotional expression.
The air is the victim of our need to express
Personifying air as a victim of the human need to express emotions, particularly those held inside.
All these feelings inside us that we must get off our chest
Exploring the necessity of releasing inner feelings, as if getting something off one's chest.
Sometime I feel so lonely
Repeating the sentiment of loneliness despite being surrounded by love.
With all this love all around me
Reiterating the dichotomy of feeling lonely while love is present in the environment.
