1,000 Witnesses Lyrics

mmk, i think this song has to do with Juturna. it sounds like its about the band and the type of music they want to create. The whole thing about "dont aim without a target and the compas dail" have to do with the fact that they have trouble deciding and sticking to their song ideas, which is what the title On Letting Go is about.

the whole "heading back to the start..feels like its over" is them saying that they tend to drift back to Juturna style songs but they dont necessarily know if they wanna create those kinds of songs n e more

The "if a foundtain did fall from the sky...1,000 witnesses" part basically says that if they let the style of Juturna go, all their fans would notice and the "croud screams, we dont hear a thing" means that their afraid the fans wont like the new sound

"are we looking the right way... our minds are open" is them wondering if where their music is going is right for them

the whole "it was an anchor... pour conrete on the roots" part has to do with the fact that since their old stuff has become to popular and everyone likes it so much, it feels like they have got themselves set into one sound

just my interpetation
