Lyrics
When did this get hard?
Expressing a difficulty or challenge in the situation.
When did we run out of luck?
Questioning when the good fortune or positive circumstances ran out.
Say I'm so run down but I know I gave enough
Acknowledging exhaustion but asserting having given enough effort.
Am I stuck right here
Wondering if the speaker is trapped in a certain situation.
Now we know we played our cards?
Reflecting on the realization that choices have been made.
How did we get lost?
Pondering how the situation of being lost occurred.
Oh, it all comes down to us
Summarizing that everything ultimately depends on "us" or the individuals involved.
Ask me what I think I believe
Inviting a question about personal beliefs.
I need to see you wait to let me answer
Expressing a desire for time to formulate a response.
You seek what I don't
Noting a difference in desires or goals between the speaker and the other person.
And I keep having to lead you
Indicating the speaker's role in guiding or leading the other person.
Ain't nobody's dancer
Asserting independence, not conforming to anyone else's expectations.
I had a dream, I was learning
Repetition of a dream where the speaker was learning, but love disrupted the progress.
Then your love took it from me
-I had a dream, I was learning
-Then your love took it from me
-I had a dream, I was learning
-Then your love took it from me
-I had a dream, I was learning
-Then your love took it from me
-Don't care about who you know
Expressing indifference towards social connections and influence.
Man, you're old, you don't scare me
Dismissing the impact of age, asserting fearlessness.
Run down a rabbit hole
Metaphorically entering a confusing or chaotic situation.
Your downfalls, I see you clearly now
Claiming an understanding of someone's weaknesses or mistakes.
Ask me what I think I believe
Repetition of the invitation to inquire about personal beliefs.
I need to see you wait to let me answer
Desiring time before responding to a question.
You seek what I don't
Highlighting a difference in what the other person is seeking.
And I keep having to lead you
Reiterating the speaker's role in guiding the other person.
Ain't nobody's dancer
Emphasizing independence and refusing to be controlled.
I had a dream, I was learning
Continuation of the recurring dream theme, with love obstructing learning.
Then your love took it from me
-I had a dream, I was learning
-Then your love took it from me
-I had a dream, I was learning
-Then your love took it from me
-I had a dream, I was learning
-Then your love took it from me
-I had a dream, I was learning
Repetition of the invitation to inquire about personal beliefs.
(Ask me what I think I believe
-Ask me what I think I believe)
-Then your love took it from me
-I had a dream, I was learning
Final repetition of the dream theme, emphasizing the impact of love on learning.
(Ask me what I think I believe
-Ask me what I think I believe)
-Then your love took it from me
