Lyrics
Despite the smile you see
Despite the outward appearance of happiness or contentment
There's a sadness I know
There exists a deep sense of sorrow or melancholy
We all have a place to be
We all have obligations or destinations to reach
And nowhere to go.
Yet, we feel directionless or lost
There's a place inside our minds
Within our thoughts or consciousness
where we leave our dreams
We store our aspirations
someday we may find
Someday, we might discover
they're never what they seem
Our dreams aren't as we perceived them
they never are
Our dreams are consistently misleading
Tell us something Can you reveal
Requesting information or insight
Give us something To help us feel again
To provide something that revives emotions
Tell us something Lucid and real
Asking for disclosure of genuine truth
Give us something To help us feel again
To offer something that reignites feelings
You'll see when you close your eyes
When shutting out external stimuli
A vision so clear
A vivid and clear mental image appears
In contrast through the light
However, when exposed to brightness
We see you appear
The vision of oneself emerges
There's a place inside our minds
Within the recesses of our thoughts
where we leave our dreams (behind)
We abandon our aspirations (implied: leave them behind)
someday we may find
At some point, we might realize
they're never what they seem
Our dreams aren't as we believed them to be
they never are
Consistently, our dreams deceive us
Tell us something Can you reveal
Asking for information or insight again
Give us something To help us feel again
To provide something that restores emotions
Tell us something Lucid and real
Asking again for disclosure of genuine truth
Give us something To help us feel again
To offer something that rekindles feelings
Help us feel again
Pleading for help to reconnect with emotions
