Lyrics

Free your mind and stop living in your head

Encouragement to let go of overthinking and live more presently.

Because you’re only making sense for someone else

Implying that one's actions or thoughts cater to others rather than themselves.

And I know this life is too far to grasp

Life's complexity seems beyond full comprehension.

Don’t listen to the voice that says you can’t

Advice to ignore self-doubt or limiting inner voices.

I seek to know and I seek to understand

Expressing a desire for knowledge and understanding.

A depth to life beyond what I can comprehend

Recognition of life's depth beyond personal understanding.

There’s more to life than what we’ve come to know

Belief that there's more to life than what's currently known.

And so I’m drawn to the unknown

Attraction towards the unknown aspects of life.

I can show you with the distant, foreign coasts

Offering to reveal distant, unfamiliar places metaphorically.

It’s such a bitter feeling to have once known

Regret for experiencing something bitter in the past.

When the water turns to sand, and the sand to concrete

Metaphorical transformation of elements, depicting change.

And the concrete dissipates from beneath your feet

A sense of instability or loss of foundation.

Left to drift and grow indifferent

Feeling disconnected and apathetic.

It was never my dream to just belong

Desire to stand out rather than conform.

Deep in love or deep in hate

Reflecting on extremes of emotions experienced.

Another day, another way to escape

Looking for different ways to escape reality.

I’m faced with the choice of fade or stay

Confronted with the choice between fading away or enduring.

I’d rather cut the rope and not be shown

Preference for avoiding guidance or direction from others.

To live on this ground, but rather swim alone

Choosing solitude over conforming to societal norms.

In chase of direction and pursuit of truth

Pursuit of purpose and truth in life.

Another day, another way to escape

Repeated desire to escape from reality in different ways.

And either deeper in love or deeper in hate

Continued struggle between intense emotions.

I can show you with the distant, foreign coasts

Reiteration of offering to reveal unknown places metaphorically.

It’s such a bitter feeling to have once known

Repetition of regret for a bitter past experience.

I can show you with the distant, foreign coasts

Reiteration of offering to reveal unknown places metaphorically.

It’s such a bitter feeling to have once known

Repetition of regret for a bitter past experience.

A skyline unfolds in the red distant sea

Imagery of a distant cityscape in the sea, possibly symbolizing unattainable goals or aspirations.

It speaks to my suppressed beliefs

Recognition of personal beliefs suppressed by societal norms.

For there’s nowhere out and nowhere to be

A sense of feeling lost or without purpose.

And nothing remains beyond our false reliefs

Skepticism towards commonly accepted beliefs or illusions.

Free your mind

Reiteration of advice to free one's mind.

It is time for you to free your mind

Repetition of the call to release mental constraints.

It is time for you to free your mind

Reiteration of the need to liberate one's mind.
