Break the Glass
Breaking Through: A Dream of Liberation in Django Django's 'Break the Glass'
Lyrics
Waking together, you lifted your head
Beginning the day together, you raised your head.
How would it feel if we laid back forever?
Contemplating the perpetual nature of relaxation.
Travel the world from the bed where we lie
Imagining exploring the world without leaving the bed.
Floating above like the ash from a fire
Feeling weightless, like the ash floating from a fire.
Doesn't it seem like we've been here before?
Sense of déjà vu, a feeling of having been in this situation before.
Over an ocean the heavens will open
Anticipating a transcendent experience over an ocean.
Nothing lives up to the visions we see
Reality often falls short of the grand visions we have.
Everything's clear when you step through the mirror
Clarity and understanding when venturing beyond the usual.
Carried away to the fog in the distance
Getting carried away into the unknown, possibly foggy future.
Breaking through the glass
Breaking through barriers or norms, possibly for a new beginning.
Waking up at last
Finally awakening to reality.
Are you still there?
Questioning the continued presence of a companion.
Face up to the facts
Facing and accepting the truth.
The gasses that we share
Shared experiences and connections, like gasses we breathe.
Hot balloons of open air
Light and carefree atmosphere, symbolized by hot air balloons.
Step out of rhythm and fall into place
Breaking free from routine and finding one's place.
Try not to think of the hours I wasted
Attempting to avoid dwelling on wasted time.
Open the shutters, now how can it be?
Opening up to new perspectives, questioning reality.
When did this picture become so unreal?
Perception of life becoming surreal, questioning its authenticity.
Moving along on an endless supply
Moving forward with a seemingly endless supply of experiences.
Somehow I feel like the only survivor
Feeling isolated or unique in one's journey.
Try to remember the moment we spent
Reflecting on past moments and experiences.
Lost in the rain as we floated together
Lost in a shared experience, possibly symbolized by rain.
Carried away by the dream that we're sharing
Being carried away by a shared dream or aspiration.
Breaking through the glass
Breaking through obstacles or illusions.
Waking up at last
Awakening to reality after overcoming challenges.
Are you still there?
Uncertainty about the continued presence of a companion.
Face up to the facts
Facing and acknowledging the reality of a situation.
The gasses that we share
Shared experiences and connections, like gasses we breathe.
Hot balloons of open air
Light and carefree atmosphere, symbolized by hot air balloons.
What does it matter, the world will still spin
Contemplating the insignificance of individual actions in the grand scheme.
Another day ends, and the end will begin again
A cyclical view of time, where endings lead to new beginnings.
Dancing in circles, and clapping out time
Engaging in repetitive and rhythmic activities.
Telling the truth and forgetting the lines
Choosing honesty over scripted or rehearsed communication.
Waking together, you lifted your head
Beginning the day together, you raised your head.
How would it feel if we laid back forever?
Contemplating the perpetual nature of relaxation.
Travel the world from the bed where we lie
Imagining exploring the world without leaving the bed.
Floating above like the ash from a fire
Feeling weightless, like the ash floating from a fire.
Pyre, pyre, pyre, pyre, pyre, pyre, pyre, pyre, pyre, pyre
Repetition of "pyre" suggests an intense and transformative experience.
