Deepest You
Discovering Depths: Ward Thomas' 'Deepest You' Unveiled
Lyrics
Desperate to say that it is when it isn't
Expressing a desire to falsely claim something is okay when it is not
Lost in the ocean of your optimism
Feeling overwhelmed in the vastness of someone's positivity
The sea of denial
Referring to a state of refusing to acknowledge the truth
You are an island
Describing the person as emotionally isolated like an island
You know if I could, I would swim out that far
Expressing a willingness to go to great lengths for the person, metaphorically swimming a long distance
Carry you home to who you really are
Intending to bring the person back to their true self
Relight your fire, but I can't
Expressing the inability to reignite the person's passion or enthusiasm
Mining for diamonds, you dig in the dirt
Metaphorically searching for valuable qualities in the person
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Repeating the sound "Ooh" for emphasis, possibly indicating the difficulty of the search
Down in the darkness, it's gonna hurt
Acknowledging the pain that comes with exploring one's inner self
Ooh, it's what every searching soul in the great unknown must be brave and do
Highlighting the necessity for individuals to face challenges in the pursuit of self-discovery
You will find your deepest you
Encouraging the person to find their truest self
I see your pain and I travel in time
Observing the pain the person is experiencing and reflecting on their past
Back to the wildness you had as a child
Revisiting a time when the person was carefree and wild
Dancing and laughter
Recalling moments of joy, dancing, and laughter
Free
Emphasizing the concept of freedom
The whole world back then as it lay at your feet
Reflecting on a time when the world seemed full of possibilities
Now it's on your back and you struggle to keep
Describing the burden the person now carries and struggles to conceal
Everything hidden
Expressing the difficulty of keeping everything hidden
But I see
Claiming to see beyond the person's facade
Mining for diamonds, you dig in the dirt
Continuing the metaphor of searching for valuable qualities in the person
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Repeating the sound "Ooh" for emphasis
Down in the darkness, it's gonna hurt
Acknowledging the pain that accompanies the search for inner truth
Ooh, it's what every searching soul in the great unknown must be brave and do
Reiterating the idea that facing challenges is essential for self-discovery
You will find your deepest you
Encouraging the person to find their deepest self
I'm desperate to say I can make it alright
Expressing a desperate desire to make things right
Knock down the walls your heart's hiding behind
Desiring to break down emotional barriers and reveal the person's true emotions
I could never, but you can
Acknowledging personal limitations but expressing confidence in the person's ability to overcome
