The Ones Left Standing
The Resilient Echo of Standing Strong
Lyrics
Who on earth could ever explain the great mysteries of life
Reflecting on the impossibility of fully explaining life's great mysteries.
Or the mournful and untimely face of death
Contemplating the sad and unpredictable nature of death.
But as long as we remain, we grow better, even stronger
Expressing the idea that growth and strength come with time as long as we endure.
Though we'll never be the same
Acknowledging that despite growth, some experiences change us irreversibly.
'Cause the ones left standing have to cry all the tears
Describing the emotional burden of those who survive and must face the aftermath.
And replay all the memories, the good and bad from the years
Emphasizing the necessity to revisit both the joyful and painful memories.
And we shoulder the weight of the work left to be done
Highlighting the responsibility of continuing the unfinished tasks.
And the ones left standing carry on
Stressing that those who endure continue to carry on despite the challenges.
The peace of God will abide in the season of our sorrow
Finding solace in the presence of God during times of sorrow.
In the valley of a pain we can't describe
Describing an indescribable pain experienced in life's low points.
In the palm of His hand is a shelter from the madness
Depicting God's protective shelter in the midst of chaos.
We can never really understand
Acknowledging the limits of human understanding in the face of divine mysteries.
'Cause the ones left standing have to cry all the tears
Reiterating the emotional toll on survivors, especially through tears and memories.
And replay all the memories, the good and bad from the years
Underlining the constant revisiting of both positive and negative past experiences.
And we shoulder the weight of the work left to be done
Stating the responsibility of carrying the weight of unfinished tasks.
And the ones left standing carry on
Affirming the resilience of those who continue despite challenges and losses.
And in eternity when all the mysteries are gone
Looking forward to a time in eternity when mysteries will be revealed.
It will be clear that it was our God keeping us strong
Attributing strength to God during challenging times.
'Cause the ones left standing have to cry all the tears
Reiterating the emotional burden on survivors, including tears and memories.
And replay all the memories, the good and bad from the years.
Emphasizing the ongoing process of revisiting past experiences, both positive and negative.
And we shoulder the weight of the work left to be done
Restating the responsibility of carrying the weight of unfinished tasks.
And the ones left standing carry on
Affirming the resilience of those who continue despite challenges and losses.
