Lyrics
Starting out without fear and doubt, living in a fantasy
Starting a journey with confidence and without hesitation, living in an imaginative world.
Wild dreams of the petty things everybody makes believe
Having ambitious dreams about trivial things that everyone pretends to believe.
Then a voice said I had a choice
Hearing a voice that presents a choice.
Save me from the fire
Seeking salvation from a difficult situation or challenge.
I said it's smoke that'll get ya before the fire
Recognizing that potential harm (smoke) precedes the actual danger (fire).
But if the smoke don't kill ya then I will
Expressing a willingness to take drastic measures if necessary.
Come on
An encouraging call to action.
Somewhere I'm trying in a hole, yeah
Feeling trapped or stuck, dealing with something artificial.
Something contrived, like I sold my soul years ago
Sensing a fabricated existence, as if personal integrity was compromised in the past.
So I'll be grateful as I go
Choosing gratitude despite uncertainties, curious about the outcome.
See where we end up
Exploring the unknown and seeing where life leads.
Nothing lost, all things told
Acknowledging that nothing is truly lost when everything is shared or revealed.
So pick your poison wisely
Advising to be cautious in selecting challenges or problems.
In which to drown just slightly
Choosing a difficult path carefully, being aware of the consequences.
Sift through the wreckage and refrain
Examining the aftermath and advising restraint in personal pursuits.
Stay in your lane
Encouraging staying focused on one's own path and not straying.
Somehow I'm lying to myself
Confronting self-deception and lack of concern for personal well-being.
Such proud creations, where's the pride for my health
Questioning the absence of pride in creating meaningful things for oneself.
So when do we reap the wealth
Reflecting on when the benefits of efforts will be realized.
Procrastination plays the hand that you're dealt
Procrastination influencing the outcome of life's challenges.
Don't pick your poison lightly
Cautioning against making light or hasty decisions.
Pay heed and drown just slightly
Emphasizing the importance of careful consideration in facing challenges.
Sift through the wreckage that remains
Surveying the consequences that persist after confronting difficulties.
So I'll fade away
Expressing a desire to fade away or retreat.
Watching the white lines as they fade away under me
Observing the passing of time and experiences as they diminish.
So I'm miles away
Feeling emotionally distant, leaving no evidence of one's existence.
Without a trace of any evidence of things I've made
Being physically distant without traces of accomplishments.
Somewhere I'm dying in a hole, yeah
Experiencing a sense of despair or confinement.
I'm still alive but I sold my soul years ago
Surviving while feeling a loss of personal integrity in the past.
I'm so ungrateful as I go, yeah
Expressing ingratitude as life progresses, uncertain of the outcome.
See where we end up, nothing lost all things told
Reflecting on the journey, acknowledging that nothing is truly lost when shared.
So I'll fade away
Reiterating the desire to fade away, watching experiences diminish.
Watching the white lines as they fade away under me
Continuing to observe the passing of time and experiences.
So I'm miles away
Remaining emotionally and physically distant, leaving no trace of existence.
Without a trace of being here
Expressing a sense of absence, as if never being present.
