Lyrics
The sun came after the rain
The sun emerging after a period of rain symbolizes a positive change or a new beginning.
And i stood outside on a holiday
The narrator standing outside on a holiday suggests a moment of reflection and contemplation.
I thought about where i've been
Reflecting on past experiences and events in one's life.
I thought about where i'm going
Contemplating future directions and goals.
And i thought about nothing at all
A moment of introspection where the narrator ponders existence or philosophical concepts.
The breeze blew through the pines
The breeze passing through the pines carries whispers of the narrator's past lives.
Whispered past lives of mine
Recollection of past experiences and memories.
I thought about where i'm going
Continued contemplation about the future and the path ahead.
I thought about where i've been
Reflection on the journey and experiences of the past.
And i thought about it all
Deeper reflection encompassing both past and future, contemplating life as a whole.
Yesterday got swept by today
Acknowledging the passage of time, with yesterday fading into the present (today).
Now only a memory remains
Memories are all that remain of the past.
And a rock, and a couple of stones
Physical remnants like a rock and stones symbolize the lasting impact of certain events.
But they've been here before
Recognition that some experiences have occurred before, suggesting cycles or repetitions.
I'm a past life of my future self
The narrator sees themselves as a previous version of who they will become.
Keeping parts of me in jars on a shelf
Metaphorically preserving aspects of oneself, perhaps lessons or memories, for future understanding.
To know where i've been
Keeping a connection with the past to inform and guide the future.
To know where i'm going
Continued reflection on the journey, acknowledging the importance of knowing one's history and destination.
To know not knowing at all
Embracing the uncertainty of the future, recognizing the value in not having all the answers.
