Lyrics
Take your time
Encouragement to proceed at one's own pace
But if you waste it
Warning against squandering time
Take mine too
Offering the speaker's time if the listener wastes theirs
I don't mind
Expressing willingness to share time
As long as you let me into your mind
Condition for sharing time is allowing emotional intimacy
My brain's a hazy place these days
Describing the speaker's mental state as unclear or confused
Take your clothes off
Suggesting physical intimacy by asking to undress
Climb up into my bed
Invitation to share a bed for closeness
I'll take your money
Playfully mentioning taking the listener's money
I'll steal your oxygen
Suggesting a desire to be essential to the listener
Can you see
Raising a question about perception or understanding
All of my boundless treachery
Acknowledging personal deceit or betrayal
I fell to zero, at least it must have been
Describing a significant personal decline or loss
You're just a hero, I need a heroin(e)
Seeking a savior or comforting figure
Unchained black melodies gaining strain
Referencing challenging and unrestrained musical expressions
I don't mind but certainly
Expressing acceptance of a situation but asserting personal value
I don't mean to boast
Clarifying the absence of bragging
But you're divine
Complimenting the listener as divine
You got me feelin' comatose
Indicating a state of emotional numbness
My friend, I fear we're drawing near the end
Expressing concern about an approaching end
I watch the shadows
Observing shadows and potential symbolism
They dance across the wall
Following the movement of shadows
I follow blindly
Describing a blind pursuit of something
Chased them down the hall
Pursuing shadows down a hallway
I see monsters in my periphery
Noticing unsettling visions or fears in peripheral vision
Take your time
Reiteration of the encouragement to take time
But if you waste it
Reiteration of the warning against wasting time
Take mine too
Reoffering the speaker's time if the listener wastes theirs
I don't mind
Reexpressing the willingness to share time
As long as you let me into your mind
Reiterating the condition for sharing time and emotional intimacy
My brain's a hazy place these days
Reiterating the speaker's unclear mental state
