So Blue
Down Here Lyrics

Shallow capacity is bearing all I see and I know
I cannot handle the constant barrage of negative events and emotions in the world; it's overwhelming and takes a toll on me.

It's disease, it's loss, it's death knocking at my door
Everywhere I look, I see sickness, grief, and death - it's a constant reminder that everything in life is temporary and fleeting.

I click these thoughts to something else, something more
To avoid being consumed by negativity, I try to focus my thoughts on more positive and uplifting things.

Detached harmonies, all the airways scream dissonance
The constant barrage of noise and information in the media and social networks often contradicts itself and creates disharmony instead of clarity.

And we know of broken life, broken homes, broken hearts and broken bones
We are all too familiar with the pain and suffering of life, from broken relationships to physical injury and beyond.

Recycling the paper of a crying world's suicide note
As a society, we tend to perpetuate negative and self-destructive behaviors and beliefs, leading us to a path of destruction.

See the world spinning round, a sucking hole that souls go down
The world can be a vortex that sucks people into a cycle of despair and darkness; it's hard to escape once you're in.

Embrace the sorrow of today because repentance finds a way
Acknowledging pain and suffering is the first step towards finding hope and redemption.

Only His blood can heal our wounds
Despite all our efforts to cope and heal, only divine power can truly heal our deepest wounds and give us peace.

And if repentance finds a way, what's left today to be
Once we find grace and forgiveness, we are able to let go of our past mistakes and regrets and live in the present.

A final symphony, the precipice too close
At times it feels like life is reaching its end, but there is still a final movement - a last act that we can choose how to live out.

You're scaring me back away, sin is real, it doesn't feel, it always, only always, steals
The temptation to give into sinful behavior can be overwhelming and scary, but it's important to remember that it only leads to destruction and misery.

Run to the cross the only joy that's real
The only true joy and fulfillment in life comes from surrendering to something greater than ourselves and finding salvation in faith.

So blue, so blue
The constant strain of life's challenges and sadness leave us feeling down and melancholic.

We're so blue, we're so blue
It's not just an individual experience; as a society, we are collectively impacted by the brokenness and pain of the world, and it can be overwhelming.
