Parachutes
Navigating Shared Struggles: Trevor Hall's 'Parachutes' Unveiled
Lyrics
The kids are insane
The youth are behaving irrationally or unusually.
Sick in the brain
They are mentally unwell or disturbed.
Licking the same wounds
Sharing similar emotional wounds or difficulties.
We sit with the same moon above us
Despite differences, they all look at the same moon.
But we're different from the others
They consider themselves distinct from others.
'Cause we share the same pain
They collectively experience the same pain.
It's mutual
The shared pain is mutual among them.
It's beautiful
The shared pain is viewed as beautiful.
And all of our tears and all of our fears
All tears and fears have a common origin.
They all come in one form
Despite similarities, they perceive distinct storms.
But yet we think we're from a different storm
Expressing certainty about understanding the situation.
There ain't no question how
Realization that their shared experience is mutual.
We've got realize now that it's mutual
The mutual experience is considered beautiful.
It's beautiful
Reiteration of the beauty in their shared pain.
So how long will we continue to ride this sunken ship
Questioning the duration of enduring their difficult situation.
Because I believe that we can find the surface
Expressing belief in finding a solution or improvement.
Even though it seems like this airplane is going down
Despite challenges, optimism about overcoming difficulties.
Don't be afraid
Encouragement not to be afraid in the face of adversity.
It'll all be ok
Assurance that everything will be okay.
You see they're plenty of parachutes to go around
Highlighting the availability of solutions for everyone.
See for whatever it's worth
Expressing one's continuous connection to the Earth.
I never left earth
Personal experience of hardship and isolation.
I choked on my own blood
Struggling and facing danger internally.
Alone with my own gun
Being alone with one's internal struggles and conflicts.
Surrounded by no one
Isolation without the support of others.
And now that I'm gone
Even after departure, leaving a legacy or message.
I still sing my song
Continuing to share wisdom or insights through a song.
To try to keep the children
Promoting a message to protect children from violence.
Away from all the killing
Aiming to divert children from harmful activities.
To show them a new mission
Introducing a new purpose or goal for the younger generation.
Trying to keep some peace in their hearts
Working towards maintaining peace in the hearts of the youth.
