Lyrics
We could die a thousand times
We could face numerous challenges or difficulties repeatedly.
But I just wanna see you look alive
The desire to witness vitality and liveliness in you.
All I want is you to send a sign we're alright
Seeking a reassuring signal that everything is fine.
And I can feel it in my bones
Sensing a deep intuition or understanding within oneself.
Something far beyond the sticks and stones
Referring to something more significant than superficial conflicts.
Something more profound and close to home rattles on
Describing a profound and intimate experience that resonates.
And I know you love through a fisheye lens
Acknowledging a unique way of expressing love, comparing it to a fisheye lens.
I know you love through a fisheye lens
-I know you love through a fisheye lens
-I know
Reiteration of the awareness of this distinctive love.
I know
-And you can spend your days keeping all the ghosts at bay
Suggesting a strategy to keep negative thoughts or memories away.
Saying something nice like "wait I'm listening, carry on"
Encouraging active listening and continuation of communication.
And we can take what's left, spend it in a single breath
Utilizing time wisely, focusing on meaningful conversations.
Talking 'bout love, 'bout life, 'bout wishing wells in the lawn
Discussing love, life, and the metaphorical concept of wishing wells.
What you gave, I'd never felt
Expressing a unique and intense emotion that was not felt before.
The feeling like I'm floating above myself
Feeling detached from oneself and grounded by a special connection.
Tethered to the earth by no-one else but you
Being connected to the earth by the influence of a significant other.
And it's a paradise until you're feeling like the love was overkill
Describing a blissful state until love becomes overwhelming.
Sorta like a dream of a sleeping pill
Comparing overwhelming love to a dream induced by a sleeping pill.
What's the use?
Raising the question of the purpose or utility of such intense feelings.
And yeah I know you love through a fisheye lens
Reiterating the fisheye lens metaphor, expressing a sense of pretending it's okay.
But I'm always feeling like I'm the one who pretends it's cool, like it'll mend
-But I know
Acknowledging the awareness of the situation, both for the speaker and the other person.
And you know
-That you can spend your days keeping all the ghosts at bay
Repeating the idea of keeping negativity away and encouraging patience.
Saying something nice like "wait I'm listening, carry on"
Advocating for active listening and continuation of the conversation.
And we can take what's left, spend it in a single breath
Utilizing time wisely, focusing on meaningful conversations (repeated).
Talking 'bout love, 'bout life, 'bout wishing wells in the lawn

And you can spend your days keeping all the ghosts at bay

Saying something nice like "wait I'm listening, carry on"

Yeah, I've been seeing far-off sights, hearing mission bells in the dawn
Describing experiences of perceiving distant sights and sounds.
