Destination
Mr. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's just so hard to let things go
Lost acquaintances i've met
Spinning in circles all alone
I think of Paul at Malta
After his ship was wrecked
He took the risk and fell
Their leader brought him in
Despite how sick his dad had been
Paul cured the ill that day
Provisions full they sailed away
No explanations just faith destinations
Opportunities i've left
And all the times i've said no
The victim cards i've played
Control's a masquerade
My safety net is full of holes
I think of Paul at Malta
After his ship was wrecked
He took the risk and fell
His faith and failure intersect
Their leader brought him in
Despite how sick his dad had been
Paul cured the ill that day
Provisions full they sailed away
No explanations just faith destinations
I think of Paul at Malta
After his ship was wrecked
He took the risk and fell
His faith and failure intersect
Their leader brought him in
Despite how sick his dad had been
Paul cured the ill that day
Provisions full they sailed away
No explanations just faith destinations
In "Destination," Mr. reflects on his struggles to let go of lost acquaintances and missed opportunities as he gets older. He compares his situation to that of Paul at Malta, who faced a shipwreck and illness but chose to take a risk and rely on his faith to forge ahead. Mr. emphasizes that faith, not explanations or control, is the key to reaching our destinations.
The lyrics suggest that Mr. is grappling with feelings of regret and uncertainty as he looks back on his life choices. He recognizes that he has missed out on some opportunities and has perhaps played the victim card too often. The reference to lost acquaintances also implies a sense of isolation and perhaps even loneliness. However, Mr. offers a glimmer of hope by drawing inspiration from Paul's story of resilience and faith. By embracing the unknown and trusting in a higher power, rather than seeking control or making excuses, Mr. suggests that we too can reach our desired destinations.
Overall, "Destination" is a thought-provoking song that encourages listeners to reflect on their own journeys and the role that faith plays in reaching our goals.
