Lyrics
When I'm down
Expressing a low emotional state
And I don't want you around
Desire for solitude during difficult times
Know that in my heart
Emphasizing a sincere sentiment in the heart
I could never mean it that way
Assuring that negative feelings are not intentional
It's older than any religion
Describing a timeless quality surpassing religions
So I can't call it a sin
Rejecting the notion of it being a sinful act
Maybe it was always a stranger
Suggesting a mysterious or unfamiliar nature
Someone to let me in
Seeking acceptance or entry from an outsider
Maybe I should have driven
Contemplating a drastic action, possibly self-destructive
My car into the lake
Imagining a drastic scenario involving driving into a lake
Wishing someone would clip the door
Desiring an external force to intervene
Looking for an easy break
Seeking an easy way out of a challenging situation
I started thinking about you
Reflecting on thoughts about someone consistently
All the time
Expressing a continuous focus on a person
I started dreaming about you
Experiencing recurring dreams about the same person
Every night
Highlighting the frequency of dreaming
Something bigger
Yearning for something more significant
A new view out the window
Describing a shift in perspective or mindset
I'm talking peace of mind
Referring to the pursuit of inner tranquility
Crawling towards some kind of paradise
Symbolizing a journey towards a personal utopia
But as long as theres been life to give
Recognizing the duality of life, with both creation and destruction
There's been life to take
Acknowledging the inherent risks in living
And if I'm too weak to off myself
Contemplating personal weakness and vulnerability
Well baby, would you do it for me?
Poetically questioning a willingness to sacrifice
Maybe I should have driven
Reiterating the idea of contemplating a drastic action
My car into the lake
Revisiting the notion of driving into a lake
Wishing someone would clip the door
Desiring an external intervention in challenging circumstances
Looking for an easy break
Seeking an effortless resolution to difficulties
I started thinking about you
Repeating the focus on continuous thoughts about someone
All the time
Reiterating a persistent preoccupation with a person
I started dreaming about you
Emphasizing the ongoing nature of dreaming about someone
Every night
Highlighting the nightly recurrence of dreams
