Vagabond
MaryJet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From this day on 'til a long time from now
Again and again I'm facing my own fears but it's hard to please me
I won't waste this healing time I need this cup of tea
I contemplate back and forth
I know now what I have to comprehend
But i'll deal with it tomorrow
Time spent alone I'm wasting my time
I find myself lingering on
Like a vagabond
I know you know I say time will change
Didn't it just change a little bit
I contemplate back and forth
Hoping all my problems will go away
But I'll take care of them another day
I remember what you said
But they just won't go away
So I'll deal with it another day
Time spent alone im wasting my time
Will something come along
I find myself lingering on
Like a vagabond
The lyrics to MaryJet's song "Vagabond" explore themes of personal growth, healing, and the struggle to confront fears and facing problems. The song opens with the singer acknowledging that her perspective on life has shifted and that she will now see things differently. She also recognizes that this process will not be easy and that she will have to face her fears repeatedly. However, despite the difficulty of this journey, she is determined not to waste the time she needs to heal and grow.
The chorus of the song centers on the idea of being a vagabond - someone who is wandering, without a settled home or purpose. This is a metaphor for the singer's state of mind - she feels adrift and uncertain, not knowing if anything will ever come along to help her overcome her problems. She acknowledges that time will bring change, but wonders if it will be enough to make a real difference. Ultimately, the song ends on a note of determination - the singer will continue to face her issues, even if they don't go away right away.
