Dopamine Death Dream
Dopamine Dreams Unveiled: Defying Society's Lies
Lyrics
It's been a long time
Expressing a significant passage of time.
Fuck the digital presence
Rejecting the value or importance of online existence or digital identity.
I wanted a real life
Desire for genuine, offline experiences.
Social pressure said I need college
Feeling societal pressure to pursue higher education (college).
What a sick lie
Commentary on the falseness or deceit in societal expectations.
Don't know why you're still in the back of my mind
Questioning why thoughts of a person linger in the mind despite not understanding why.
Your gothic painted pretty face
Describing a visually striking appearance, possibly associated with a past relationship.
Strapped to the bed, your hands tied
Imagery depicting a confined, restrained, or powerless state.
Mascara dripping down from her eyes
Visual description of someone crying, their makeup running due to distress.
Caught in a screen while were locked from the outside
Feeling trapped or confined while yearning for external freedom.
Hold tight
Encouraging to hold on or maintain a strong grip despite difficulties.
Lying in the dark
Metaphorical reference to being in a state of emotional darkness or uncertainty.
Spinning thoughts of you 'round my heart
Constantly thinking about the person mentioned, affecting emotions deeply.
I'm too invested to sell out my archive
Refusal to compromise personal history or experiences for gain.
Cause every memory of you reminds me I can feel alive
Every memory associated with the person mentioned brings a sense of being alive.
Oh captain, my captain I'm seizing the day
Referencing the desire to seize the current moment or opportunities.
Spent a couple years under the sun to see
Spent time exploring and experiencing life but lost the person in the process.
I lost you to find my way
Choosing a path that led to self-discovery but included losing someone significant.
Still a lonely poet but I'll never hit the brakes
Despite feeling isolated, there's a commitment to continue forward without slowing down.
All I can do is try
Recognizing limitations but still willing to attempt and put effort into achieving.
God I hope make it
An expression of hope regarding achieving a goal.
Eyes always on the sky
Constantly looking or aspiring for something beyond ordinary or conventional.
Waiting on a spaceship
Metaphorically waiting for something extraordinary or life-changing.
On a different level, can't relate
Feeling disconnected or on a different wavelength from others.
You don't believe it
Expressing doubt or disbelief in what others think or accept.
Honestly I'm trying to be honest
Striving to be truthful and sincere.
Can't you see it
Questioning if someone else can perceive the honesty being put forth.
Beyond
Seeking something beyond the ordinary or mundane.
To feel something's all that I want
Expressing a strong desire to experience emotions or sensations.
Escape from the thought that you're gone
Trying to escape the persistent thought or idea of losing someone.
It's been a long time
Reiteration of a significant passage of time.
Fuck the digital presence
Rejecting the significance of online existence once again.
I wanted a real life
Desire for genuine, offline experiences reiterated.
Social pressure said I need college
Reiterating societal pressure to pursue higher education (college).
What a sick lie
Reiteration on the deceit or falsehood in societal expectations.
Don't know why you're still in the back of my mind
Continued confusion or uncertainty about why thoughts of a person persist.
Still dreaming we were 17
Dreaming or longing for a past time of youth and innocence.
Strapped to the bed, your hands tied
Similar imagery of being confined, powerless, or restrained.
Mascara dripping down to her thighs
Imagery of distress, with makeup running, potentially linked to pain or suffering.
Caught in a screen while you're carving my eyes out
Feeling trapped while experiencing emotional pain, possibly due to a perceived betrayal.
Gone now
Indication that the person or memory mentioned earlier is now gone.
