Out of Reach
Emotional Journey of Love's Struggle: Dream Theater's 'Out of Reach'
Lyrics
There's something about this girl, some kind of magic
Expressing a mysterious and captivating quality in the girl being referred to.
I swear she cast a spell on me
Feeling entranced or enchanted by the girl, as if under a magical influence.
Not the first time, might be the last
Acknowledging that this may not be the first time experiencing such emotions and it might be the last.
Can't let this moment slip away
Emphasizing the urgency of not letting the current moment slip away.
Try to find the words, none survived with me
Struggling to articulate one's feelings; words seem inadequate.
Air of confidence, but I can barely breathe
Noticing the girl's confidence but feeling overwhelmed and breathless in her presence.
She's without a care, electrified and hell-bent
Describing the girl as carefree, energetic, and rebellious.
A thousand volts igniting me
Highlighting an intense, electrifying connection with the girl.
The waves crash over me, far below but I breach
Facing challenges symbolized by waves, but overcoming them to reach new heights.
The undertow, my reverie
Experiencing a dreamlike state or contemplation, possibly in the face of adversity.
Sadness in her smile, your love, it's been a while
Observing a hint of sadness in the girl's smile, possibly related to a past love.
Near and far away, she chases it each day
Describing the girl's pursuit of something, both near and far, on a daily basis.
A promise to come back, all the while, still waiting
Referencing a promise to return, yet the wait continues, suggesting a sense of longing.
Seems it lost its way
Suggesting that the promised return or goal may have been lost or unfulfilled.
Out of reach, just too hard to reach
Expressing the feeling of being unable to grasp or attain something significant.
You're letting your love slip away
Warning about the risk of losing love if not actively held onto.
Out of reach, yeah, it's hard to reach
Reiterating the difficulty of reaching or holding onto what is desired.
There's another day
Offering a glimmer of hope for another opportunity or day to come.
Although you're hurting and afraid
Acknowledging pain and fear but emphasizing inner strength and resilience.
You're stronger than yesterday
Asserting personal growth and strength compared to the past.
