The lyrics of "A Place" by Fernando convey profound emotions and depict vivid imagery that captures the essence of vulnerability, strength, and human experience.
In the first verse, the singer describes a child in their innocence, basking in the warmth of the sun with a smile on their face. The imagery of a cloud potentially blocking out the sunlight represents obstacles and challenges that may arise in life, hindering one's ability to soar freely like a dove. Despite the potential for setbacks and pain, time has the power to heal wounds, but the fear instilled in the dove prevents it from ever flying again. This can be interpreted as a symbol of the lasting impact of fear on one's ability to pursue their dreams and aspirations.
The second verse shifts the focus to a man likened to an iceberg, with a cold and guarded heart drifting aimlessly in vast, empty seas. The imagery of a floating soul experiencing deep sorrow without solace or comfort emphasizes the isolating nature of internal struggles and the inability to express emotions. The assertion that no one can be entirely strong and impervious to pain challenges the notion of invincibility and highlights the universality of human vulnerability. The mention of roses with thorns and skies with storms emphasizes the inevitability of adversity and challenges as inherent aspects of life.
In the final verse, the singer reflects on the weight of emotions that they carry, likening the heaviness to a breeze passing through them. This imagery conveys a sense of emptiness and detachment from oneself, as if the feelings are fleeting and transient. By following the souls in search of a well-known place to rest, the singer acknowledges the longing for familiarity and comfort amidst turmoil and pain. The tears shed by a man in pain signify the profound depth of emotional turmoil and the cathartic release that comes with expressing inner struggles.
Overall, "A Place" delves into the complexities of human emotion, resilience, and the search for solace in the face of adversity. The vivid imagery and poignant reflections on fear, strength, and vulnerability invite listeners to contemplate the multifaceted nature of the human experience and the enduring quest for a place of peace and belonging.

Peace and tranquility can still be disrupted by turmoil
REALITY IS WHAT WE FEAR
Our fears shape our understanding of the world
AND FRAILTY IS OUR NAME
Our vulnerability and weakness is inherent in our identity
AND HOLDING THAT FEELING
Grasping onto those emotions and sentiments
I WASN'T WALKING OVER ME
It's as if I was not truly present or aware
BUT AS EMPTY AS A BREEZE
Feeling hollow and void, like a passing wind
AND FOLLOWING THAT SOULS
Trailing those lost and wandering spirits
I'LL REST IN HOME, A WELL-KNOWN PLACE
I will find solace and peace in a familiar and comforting environment
FALLING TEARS FROM A MAN IN PAIN
Shedding tears and expressing sorrow for a man enduring suffering

I can't believe there are no comments on this! This is one of the greatest songs on the planet. I saw Fernando recently at Harvest in Riverside and he was a HUGE blessing. He is a must see!

This song is perfect for the wounded child/woman. "Father, at your feet I will never be afraid", "guardian of my heart". Look up Webster's guard and guardian. Christ goes before us and God is our rear guard. And consider that he has been there "all of my life". Check out "No One Else", "Sleepless Nights", "Creation Song"," Sing to Jesus" and "Here is Love". Fernando writes straight from God's heart to ours. He is our husbandman (Isa. 54). It amazes me He hasn't rejected me one second in 30 yrs.
