Salvation
Finding Redemption: A Journey Through Life's Bottles
Lyrics
At the bottom of a bottle
Finding solace or redemption through excessive drinking
I found my salvation
Discovering personal redemption or relief
It came creeping slowly
Salvation gradually approached or revealed itself
Like a ghost in the dark
Salvation arriving stealthily, akin to an unseen presence
And if we were younger
If they were younger, a hypothetical commitment to marriage
I'd marry you, baby
An expression of love and dedication
We'd call it a good one
Naming their union as something positive
And we'd live out our days
Imagining a life together until the end of their days
We're older now
Transition to an older age
Made it somehow
Successfully navigating life despite challenges
And it comforts me
Finding solace or reassurance in their circumstances
So patiently
Waiting calmly or contentedly
Salvation is a good, good friend
Salvation being depicted as a reliable companion
Don't you sell me an ocean
Refusing superficial or insincere offers of forgiveness
Of holy forgiveness
An unwillingness to accept forgiveness when feeling deeply troubled
When I'm broken and I'm buried
Feeling emotionally burdened or overwhelmed
So far in the ground
Being in a state of deep despair or trouble
And the echo surrounding
Hearing reminders of a loved one's name
Calling your name out
Leaving a mark or impact where disbelief reigns
Make marks in the dirt
Suggesting a feeling of disbelief or incredulity
Where I can't believe
No specific meaning conveyed
We're older now
Reiteration of transitioning to an older age
Made it somehow
Emphasizing successful navigation of life's challenges
And it comforts me
Finding comfort or reassurance in their circumstances
So patiently
Waiting calmly or contentedly
Salvation is a good, good friend
Reaffirmation of salvation as a dependable friend
It comforts me
Finding comfort or reassurance in their circumstances
So patiently
Waiting calmly or contentedly
Salvation is a good, good friend
Reiterating salvation's reliability as a friend
