In Dreams
Echoes of Unspoken Longing: Broken Twin's 'In Dreams' Meaning Revealed
Lyrics
I know the silence of a room
I understand the quietness of an empty space
From vast nights consumed
From long, consuming nights
In sheets and skin
In intimate moments, entwined in bedsheets and skin
I know the windows when they're closed
I am familiar with closed windows
The blinds when they're unrolled
The blinds, when extended, blocking out all light
No light gets in
An absence of illumination
It shows in the distance you grow
It becomes evident in the expanding distance
The sorrow you show
The expression of sorrow becomes apparent
And when it shows
And this manifestation is noticeable
It shows in the mirrors you see
It reflects in the mirrors you gaze into
In dreams that cannot be
In dreams that are unattainable or unrealizable
Wide awake
Fully conscious and alert
It shows in a stranger you saw
It becomes evident in a stranger you once observed
A face from afar
A face from a distance
You thought you knew
Someone you believed you understood
It shows in the distance you grow
It becomes evident in the expanding distance
The sorrow you show
The expression of sorrow becomes apparent
And when it shows
And this manifestation is noticeable
