still
Jodie Manross Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where do you go when life is unturned?
What do you do when faced with the knowledge?
How do you start when you feel so unheard?
Hard to search your soul, then find it lacking
Hard to hear your voice, then find it gone
Removing feeling, what do we cherish?
I wonder where we've gone
Still to feel
Still to fall
Still to make sense of it all
Still to feel
I'm scared to fall
Still to make sense of it all
Do you hold onto your convictions in disbelief?
How I must live I feel like distancing
I'm so tired of passing strength,
But it's the only thing I can give today
Find a place where your voice matters
In doing this, bring spirit back to form
Shaped by how I must live in this place
And still I feel I don't belong
Still to feel
Still to fall
Still to make sense of it all
Still to feel
I'm scared to fall
Still to make sense of it all
The way we move on when it hurts too much
The way we heal when the memories are still strong
The way we speak when we can't laugh out loud
The way we love when we can't move on
Now the strongest thing that I feel
Is this weakness I shall leave
And if nothing else remains
It is hope I will believe
Still to feel
Still to fall
Still to make sense of it all
Still to feel
I'm scared to fall
Still to make sense of it all

How I must live I feel like distancing
Feeling the need to distance oneself to reconcile our own values with societal expectations
I'm so tired of passing strength,
We are exhausted from putting on a facade of toughness
But it's the only thing I can give today
We may not have much to offer, but we can give our strength to others
Find a place where your voice matters
Seek out a community where your opinions are valued
In doing this, bring spirit back to form
By finding a sense of belonging, we regain our energy and enthusiasm
Shaped by how I must live in this place
Our experiences and surroundings shape who we are
And still I feel I don't belong
Even with all of our efforts, we may still feel like we don't fit in
The way we move on when it hurts too much
We must find a way to continue forward in the face of immense pain
The way we heal when the memories are still strong
We can still recover even when painful memories still linger
The way we speak when we can't laugh out loud
We can still communicate through difficulties, even when joy seems out of reach
The way we love when we can't move on
We can still find ways to love despite being stuck in the past
Now the strongest thing that I feel
The most powerful emotion I am experiencing
Is this weakness I shall leave
I will overcome my vulnerability and gain strength
And if nothing else remains
Even if everything else is gone
It is hope I will believe
I will cling to hope and believe in a better future
