Repair
Changing Tides: A Journey of Reflection and Redemption
Lyrics
The only things I can remember
The speaker can recall only specific memories.
The only lines that I've rehearsed
The speaker has practiced or memorized particular phrases.
The only way you want things to stay
The desired state that the speaker wishes to maintain.
But you're too far to actually make a change
The speaker acknowledges the desire for change but feels unable to effect it due to physical distance.
All things considered, this is is just one more thing to risk
In the grand scheme of things, the current situation is just one more risk to take.
Things that leave me feeling deaf
Experiences that leave the speaker feeling emotionally numb or detached.
Listening to the wind as the clouds begin to break
Listening to nature as it undergoes a transformative moment.
Chasing trails with no return
Pursuing paths or choices without a guaranteed outcome.
Hoping you'd wake up with lessons learned and life observed
The speaker wishes for someone to learn from experiences and observations.
Underneath it all you'll find
Beneath the surface, there's a change of perspective or decision.
I've changed my mind
A change of opinion or stance has occurred.
And in time these roads will keep me wondering what spot we're in
Over time, the speaker will be uncertain about their current situation.
But how come the door slams shut when things seem too late?
A question about why opportunities seem to close when it feels too late.
What dreams?
Questioning the existence of dreams.
What fate? Tell me
Seeking information about destiny or predetermined outcomes.
Not sure where you went
Uncertainty about someone's whereabouts.
Following your scent
Attempting to follow someone by their scent metaphorically.
The wind blew shut the door you had left open
A reference to a missed opportunity or closed possibility.
This is nothing new to you
Suggesting familiarity with situations that feel repetitive to the person.
Branches break and light falls through
Natural disruptions allowing light to enter, possibly indicating a moment of clarity.
The only things I can remember
Repetition of the idea that specific memories are retained.
The only lines that I've rehearsed
Reiteration of rehearsed lines or thoughts.
The only way you want things to stay
Restating the desired state of things.
Just like they were when I was away
Expressing a wish for things to remain as they were during the speaker's absence.
