Out With The Old
Renewal and Reflection: Embracing Change in 'Out With The Old'
Lyrics
I walked through my dream as you looked me over
I moved through my aspirations while you observed me critically.
Bleached all your hair tried to wash the old out
You changed your appearance, attempting to cleanse yourself of the past.
I wanna be who to you is perfect
I desire to be someone who, in your eyes, is flawless.
I wanna be who I thought I’d chosen
I aspire to be the person I initially believed I had chosen to become.
Keep giving up on a love I’m scared of
I repeatedly give up on a love that intimidates me.
I walked through my dream as the walls move tighter and tighter
I navigated through my dreams while feeling the walls closing in.
I’m out
I've reached a point where I am done or out.
Walk
Repeated encouragement to walk, not run, and face challenges with resilience and determination.
Don’t run
-Take the air
-Down down
-Ahh ahh
-Walk
-Don’t run
-Take the air
-Down down
-Ahh ahh
-I thought that I found a faith on Sunday
I believed I discovered faith on Sunday.
‘Cause someone said I might die on Monday
Because someone warned that I might face consequences on Monday.
In the back of my mind you’re right there with me
You are persistently present in the recesses of my thoughts.
I walked through my dream as the walls move tighter and tighter
Similar to line 6, traversing through dreams with a sense of increasing confinement.
I’m out
I've reached a point where I am done or out (repeated from line 7).
Walk
Reiterated encouragement to walk steadily and face challenges with determination.
Don’t run
-Take the air
-Down down
-Ahh ahh
-Walk
-Don’t run
-Take the air
-Down down
-Ahh ahh
-Everything will fade away, like roses
All things, like roses, will eventually fade away.
And now, I’m coming round to it
I am gradually accepting or understanding it.
