about
Which things and people give you orientation and support? “Navigation” is about this very question, which the lockdowns have so abruptly forced upon us all. It has become clear that whether family and friends or even newly discovered hobbies and music, all this navigates us through life and makes us who we are. Without all of that, our lives become quiet.
lyrics
Verse 1
I am a stage in a life full of drama
(The only way to play a part)
I am the garden in a city of cement
(A place to breathe life)
‘Cause I wear black in a sea of color
Embracing all the light
I'm your lethal dose of happiness
Get me without prescription
Chorus 1
‘Cause you'd be lonely
Without my voice inside your head
I continue to be
The navigation in your life
The navigation in your life
Verse 2
You are my rock in this endless ocean
(Keep me safe, but trapped)
You are a book in a world full of tweets
(Keep me sane, but lost)
You keep track in a maze of mirrors
Emitting all the light
You're my lethal dose of happiness
I get you without prescription
Chorus 2
‘Cause you'd be lonely
Without my voice inside your head
I continue to be
The navigation in your life
The navigation in your life
The navigation in your life
Bridge
We are opposites attracted to each other
Repelling and pulling like magnets only rougher
We are inseparable but at times too close
You are the drug I willingly chose
Chorus 3
‘Cause you'd be lonely
Without my voice inside your head
I continue to be
The navigation in your life
The navigation in your life
The navigation in your life
