Holding the Embers
Holding the Embers: A Journey of Resilience and Redemption
Lyrics
Everyday is a new day
Every day brings a new opportunity or chance.
Try to believe it
Attempting to have faith in this concept.
Wish it could take my breath away
Wishing for something incredibly impressive or profound.
Every moment repeating
Experiencing a repetition of each passing moment.
I'm missing the meaning
Feeling a sense of loss regarding the significance or purpose.
Hope I have what I need to change
Desiring to possess what's necessary for transformation or change.
I bend just to break, I rise just to fall
Experiencing a cycle of breaking and rising, falling after rising.
I see everything, I see nothing at all
Seeing everything yet understanding nothing.
I give then I take, I run then I crawl
Engaging in a pattern of giving and taking, running and crawling.
I'm searching for something and nothing at all
Searching for something significant but finding nothing.
I feel like I'm trying to surrender
Feeling as though there's an attempt to give up or yield.
Holding the embers
Clutching onto fading remnants or memories.
'Cause every time that I remember
Whenever recollection occurs, the pursuit of eternity begins to fade away.
Chasing forever, they start to burn away
The desire for everlastingness starts diminishing.
Everyday is a new day
Similar to line #1, emphasizing the cyclical nature of days.
Try to believe it
Continuing the effort to believe in the potential of each day.
Wish it could take my breath away
Desiring something astonishing enough to take one's breath away.
Every moment repeating
Repetitive moments that seem unchanging.
I'm missing the meaning
Not grasping the significance or purpose within these repetitive moments.
Hope I have what I need to change
Wishing to possess the necessary elements for change.
I bend just to break, I rise just to fall
Experiencing a pattern of bending, breaking, rising, and falling.
I see everything, I see nothing at all
Perceiving everything yet comprehending nothing.
I give then I take, I run then I crawl
Engaging in a cycle of giving, taking, running, and crawling for seemingly no reason.
For nothing at all
Doing things without a clear purpose or direction.
I feel like I'm trying to surrender
Feeling the struggle to yield or give in.
Holding the embers
Clutching fading memories or remnants while trying to let go.
'Cause every time that I remember
Whenever remembering, the pursuit of eternity starts fading away.
Chasing forever, they start to burn away
Similar to line #16, the desire for everlastingness begins to diminish.
They start to burn away
The fading away of the pursuit for eternal things.
But I've gotta try to let this go
Attempting to release or let go of the past, pain, and shame.
The past, the pain, the shame I know
Refusing to dwell on past events or lose hope.
No looking back, no losing hope
Deciding not to look back and to maintain hope.
I'll bury my fear at the end of the road, dig
Planning to confront and overcome fear as one reaches the conclusion of a journey.
I'll bury my fear at the end of the road
Reiterating the determination to conquer fear at the journey's end.
Everyday is a new day
Emphasizing the repetition of each new day's potential.
I try to believe it
Continuing to attempt belief in the potential of each day.
Hope I have what I need to change
Hoping to possess what's necessary for change.
I feel like I'm trying to surrender
Feeling the struggle to yield or give in, echoing line #30.
Holding the embers
Clutching fading memories or remnants while struggling to let go.
'Cause every time that I remember
Whenever remembering, the pursuit of eternity starts fading away.
Chasing forever, they start to burn away
Similar to line #16 and #33, the desire for everlastingness begins to diminish.
I feel like I'm trying, trying
Expressing the continuous effort or attempt.
They start to burn away (I swear that I'm)
The fading away of the pursuit for eternal things is affirmed or emphasized.
Trying, trying
Reiterating the continuous effort or attempt.
I'll bury my fear at the end of the road
Commitment to burying fear at the journey's
