How Many Hours
Embracing Life's Clock: A Reflection on Time and Dreams
Lyrics
How many hours can I kill in a day?
Contemplating how to spend time meaningfully within a day.
Sinking and turning, keep the distractions at bay
Struggling and trying to avoid distractions that may hinder progress or focus.
It's okay, at least I'm alive today
Finding solace in the fact that, despite challenges, being alive is a positive aspect.
How many tries do we get at this thing?
Questioning the number of opportunities one has in life.
Take it for granted, take it or leave it they say
Considering whether to appreciate or disregard life's opportunities, as suggested by others.
It's okay, at least I'm alive today
Reiterating the acknowledgment of being alive, emphasizing its importance.
But we were never meant to live like all our dreams came true
Reflecting on the idea that life doesn't always fulfill all our aspirations.
It's like a manufactured problem but that's my best excuse
Describing challenges as if they are artificially created, using them as an excuse.
Would you believe it too?
Prompting the listener to consider whether they would also believe in the given excuse.
But we were never meant to live like all our dreams came true
Reiterating that life doesn't always align with our idealized dreams.
It's like I've been waiting for a lifetime
Expressing the feeling of waiting for a significant event or fulfillment for a prolonged period.
And you've been waiting too
Suggesting that both the speaker and the listener have been patiently waiting.
Let me wait with you
Offering companionship during the waiting period.
How many hours can I kill in a day?
Returning to the theme of contemplating how to spend time within a day.
Sooner or later it'll catch up with me
Anticipating that delaying or avoiding responsibilities will have consequences eventually.
No way, at least I'm alive today
Rejecting the idea of negative consequences, emphasizing the positivity of being alive today.
