Lyrics
Seal my fate
Expressing a desire for a predetermined outcome or destiny.
Close that door
Seeking closure and finality by closing a symbolic door.
Let nothing ever change
Yearning for a state of permanence, resisting change.
Each new break
Every new beginning or opportunity brings more of the same challenges.
More of the same
Continuing patterns of monotony or repetition.
Clear outlines just slip my mind
Struggling to maintain clear goals, losing track of boundaries.
Losing so much time
Lamenting the loss of time, perhaps due to indecision or confusion.
This never quite felt like real life
A sense of detachment from reality, feeling life is unreal or surreal.
Felt like real life
Emphasizing the intensity of the feeling of living in a surreal or dreamlike state.
Felt like real life
-Best laid plans slip through my hands
Plans and intentions easily slipping away or failing.
Sleepwalk through the year
Moving through life without full awareness, being passive.
Silent besides the ring in my ear
Isolation or loneliness, symbolized by a persistent ringing in the ear.
Seal my fate
Repetition of the desire for a fixed fate, resistant to change.
Close that door
-Let nothing ever change
-Each new break
-More of the same
-More of the same
Emphasizing the persistence of the same challenges or situations.
More of the same
-I could live inside that weekend the rest of my life
Yearning to relive a specific moment in time, wanting to stay in the past forever.
In the amber of the moment
-Under bright lights relive each second for all of time
-Never leave this all behind
-Night are framed like movie scenes in specious memories
Describing the past in a cinematic way, emphasizing the insignificance of the present.
Present tense is nothing to me
-Everything word resembles poetry strung from a melody
-Present tense is nothing to me
-Nothing to me
Reiterating the lack of significance of the present tense.
Nothing to me
-I could live inside that weekend the rest of my life
Repeating the desire to live in a specific past moment, avoiding the present.
In the amber of the moment
-Under bright lights relive each second for all of time
-Never leave this all behind
-Never leave this all behind
Stressing the commitment to remain in the past, never leaving it behind.
Never leave this all behind
-Never leave this all behind
-Never leave this all behind
-
