Treehouse
Dreams, Warm Lights, and Baby Tears: Dissimilar South's Treehouse Tale
Lyrics
The treehouse that lives in the dreams of a small child
The symbolic representation of innocence and imagination, a place where dreams reside for a young child.
We found our grown version
As adults, they've discovered their own version of that childhood sanctuary.
The warmest of lights fills the rooms in the evening
The comforting ambiance created by warm light that fills the rooms in the evening.
It's got that sunlight glow
The treehouse has a glowing warmth, akin to the radiant feeling when in the presence of someone dear.
Like you when we're at a show
Comparing the sunlight glow of the treehouse to the radiant and vibrant presence of a loved one at an event.
Here we go, just take all my breath away
An overwhelming feeling, as if everything is breathtakingly beautiful.
I already can't see two feet in front of me
Feeling disoriented or overwhelmed, unable to perceive things clearly due to intense emotions.
Maybe, maybe
Expressing uncertainty or hesitation about a situation.
When the house is clean things won't be so messy
Suggesting that resolving internal clutter might alleviate external chaos.
The center of my chest is where it all collects
The emotional core where feelings accumulate and resonate strongly.
Where I feel it all
An acknowledgment of feeling deeply and profoundly in that emotional center.
In the middle of work, or at a bar, or in the bathroom
Emotions are felt intensely, irrespective of the situation or surroundings.
Doesn't discriminate
Emotions are universally experienced, not selective to specific moments or places.
Here we go, just take all my breath away
A repetition emphasizing the overwhelming beauty or intensity of a situation.
I already can't see two feet in front of me
Continued feeling of disorientation or being overwhelmed by emotions.
Maybe, maybe
Expressing uncertainty or hesitation about a situation, recurring theme.
When the house is clean things won't be so messy
Linking internal and external tidiness, suggesting clarity internally might resolve external chaos.
I talked to Mama, she said that she gets it
A conversation with a maternal figure who empathizes with the emotions.
We both cried big baby tears
Mutual emotional vulnerability expressed through tears.
She said she'd try harder, be better, be smarter
Pledges to improve oneself emotionally and intellectually, reflecting on self-betterment.
I said I could do some of that too
Commitment to personal growth and improvement echoed in response.
Here we go, just take all my breath away
Reiteration of overwhelming beauty or intensity in a situation.
I already can't see two feet in front of me
Continued disorientation or being overwhelmed by emotions.
Maybe, maybe
Expressing uncertainty or hesitation, recurring theme.
When the house is clean things won't be so messy
Linking internal and external tidiness, suggesting resolution of inner turmoil might ease external chaos.
When I said I'm lonely and you said that you're trapped
A realization about personal feelings of loneliness and another's feeling of entrapment.
I thought how could this be
Surprise or disbelief at the situation's circumstances.
Everyday my head feels deep underwater
Feeling mentally submerged or overwhelmed consistently.
Know that I'll come back up
Assurance of resurfacing or overcoming difficult situations.
Here we go, just take all my breath away
A repetition emphasizing the overwhelming beauty or intensity of a situation.
I already can't see two feet in front of me
Continued disorientation or being overwhelmed by emotions.
Maybe, maybe
Expressing uncertainty or hesitation, recurring theme.
When the house is clean things won't be so messy
Linking internal and external tidiness, suggesting resolution of inner turmoil might ease external chaos.
