Redemption's Journey: This Time Around
Lyrics
She locked the door behind her
She left, closing the door behind her.
And headed out of town
She departed from the town.
And it don't much matter where she's bound
Her destination doesn't matter much.
She left it all except a heart full of memories
She left everything behind except for memories and hidden emotional wounds.
And scars you never see, from
Reference to internal emotional pain not visible externally.
Those words he hurt her with and held her down
Recalling hurtful words and oppressive actions from him.
And the tears that fell without a sound
Tears fell silently.
And she swears it's gonna be different now
She is determined that things will be different this time.
This time around
Expressing hope for a positive change in the current situation.
He's taking it step by step and one day at a time
He is taking recovery step by step and day by day.
Trying to find the man he was and left behind
Searching for his former self that he left behind.
Fighting the battle sometimes barely holding on
Struggling in a battle, barely holding on.
Now that all he loved is gone, with..
All he loved is gone.
Those words he hurt her with and held her down
Reflecting on hurtful words and oppressive actions towards her.
And the tears that fell when she walked out
Tears fell when she walked away.
And she swears it's gonna be different now
She believes things will be different this time.
This time around
Reiterating hope for a positive change in the current situation.
He wants the chance to be
Expressing his desire for a chance to be the man she admired before.
The man she used to see in him, before
Reference to her previous perception of him.
He wants the chance to be
Reiterating his desire for a chance to be the man she admired before.
The man she used to see in him, before
Reference to her previous perception of him.
All of tose words he hurt her with and held her down
Recalling hurtful words and oppressive actions towards her.
And the tears that fell without a sound
Tears fell silently.
And she swears it all will be different now
She is confident that everything will be different this time.
This time around
Reiterating hope for a positive change in the current situation.
This time around
Emphasizing hope for improvement in the current circumstances.
