In Between Dreams: A Poetic Journey Through Love and Deception
Lyrics
People come and go and get too close
People come and go, forming close connections.
Where's your pain, 'cause mine is right on top of me
Asking where the listener's pain is because the singer is currently overwhelmed by their own pain.
Lying to relate to everyone around me
Admitting to lying in order to relate to others.
I don't think I'd be good with your friend
Expressing doubt about being compatible with the listener's friend.
In between dreams I miss you
Expressing longing and a sense of missing the listener while in a dream-like state.
You borrowed my smile, no intention of return
Feeling that the listener has taken away the singer's happiness without intending to return it.
In between dreams, you're holding me
Feeling embraced or comforted by the listener in a dream.
And saying that you'll never do it again
Hearing reassurance from the listener that they won't repeat a certain action.
The sun is shining while you try to justify your art
Noticing the contrast of a bright moment while the listener tries to explain their creative expression.
Pointing at the end as if you knew it all along
Pointing out that the listener is acting like they knew the outcome all along.
I knew you lied
Realizing that the listener lied.
You saw it when you looked into my eyes
Believing that the listener saw the truth when looking into the singer's eyes.
In between dreams I miss you
Reiterating the longing for the listener while in a dream-like state.
You still have my smile, don't think I'll get that back
Feeling that the listener still holds onto the singer's happiness, unsure if it'll be returned.
In between dreams, you're saying you want me
Expressing the desire for the singer by the listener, resulting in the singer dreaming.
And just like that I'm dreaming
Quickly entering a dream state due to the listener's expressed desire.
I've stripped down naked and zipped up a hundred different bodies
Metaphorically describing engaging in various relationships, feeling emotionally hurt each time.
And each one made me cry
Expressing emotional pain experienced after intimacy.
I'm dropped onto the pages of a thousand different stories
Feeling like being a part of multiple stories, overwhelming and suffocating.
They smother me till I, till I
Feeling overwhelmed by the numerous stories' impact, suffocating the singer.
Till I can't breathe
Feeling unable to breathe due to the emotional weight.
In between dreams I miss you
Continuing to long for the listener while in a dream-like state.
You're wearing my smile, it doesn't look half bad
Noticing that the listener seems to wear the singer's happiness well.
In between dreams you're saying you want me
Expressing the listener's desire for the singer while dreaming.
And just like that I'm dreaming
Feeling like entering a dream due to the listener's desire.
I think I'm always dreaming
Speculating that the singer is always in a dream-like state.
I think that I'll keep dreaming
Expressing the intention to continue dreaming.
