Shadows In the Dark
Chasing Truth in Shadows: Willy Mason's Poetic Journey
Lyrics
The sun is going down
The day is coming to an end.
The sun is going way down
Emphasizing the sunset, possibly implying a deeper sense of closure.
I hope you'll find in places to call home
Expressing a wish for the listener to find a sense of belonging.
I'm doing all I can
The speaker is putting in effort to navigate challenges.
To find the things that stand true
Searching for enduring and genuine things.
I don't know the plan,
Uncertainty about the future plans.
But I'll follow through.
Commitment to follow through despite uncertainty.
It can take a while,
Patience is required in the process.
Looking for shadows in the dark
The difficulty of finding understanding or clarity in challenging situations.
But I saw you in the sparks flew.
A moment of recognition or connection in the midst of difficulty.
A feather in the wind,
Symbolic reference to fragility and unpredictability.
You told me that's what you've been
Revealing vulnerability and a desire for acceptance.
I can only hope the weather treats you like a friend.
Hoping for favorable circumstances for the listener.
I thought I found the cure
A belief in having found a solution.
I thought I'll open each door,
The speaker is willing to explore various opportunities.
That's what kids are good for till they try to settle in
Children are good at exploring until they need stability.
Oh I'm falling apart or getting to the heart
Expressing emotional turmoil or vulnerability.
Can I take just part of the truth?
Questioning if it's possible to handle only a portion of the truth.
I don't know where it goes
Uncertainty about the direction of life.
I don't know where it goes
Reiteration of uncertainty, possibly emphasizing confusion.
Is just a couple signs I've learned to read on this road
Learning to interpret signs on the journey.
To something I can hold,
Seeking something tangible and graspable.
Study all and then go,
Studying and learning before making decisions.
Its got to be enough, keep this wills under control
Acceptance of limitations and the need for self-control.
It can take a while,
Patience is reiterated in the search for understanding.
Looking for shadows in the dark
Continued difficulty in finding clarity or understanding.
But I saw you in the sparks flew.
A repeated moment of connection or recognition in challenges.
Are we falling apart or getting to the heart?
Questioning whether difficulties lead to breakdown or deeper understanding.
Can I take just part of the truth?
Questioning the ability to handle only a partial truth.
