Reeling Hearts: Exploring the Depths of Dreams and Desires
Lyrics
You saw me in your dream and I'm sorry to say but you weren't in mine
You had a dream about me, but I didn't dream about you.
I fell asleep and saw myself on a fishing line
I envisioned myself entangled in a fishing line while asleep.
Somebody reeled in my bleeding heart
Someone pulled in my wounded heart on the fishing line.
And all I saw was the mouth of a helpless shark
All I could see was the mouth of a vulnerable shark.
I wonder what i was looking for
I ponder what I was searching for during this experience.
Cause I don't go fishing anymore
I no longer engage in the pursuit of whatever I was seeking.
The days they fall into the palm of our hands
Time passes effortlessly, but many are anxious, counting down the hours.
But so many hold a fist and count the hours 'till it ends
Some people clench their fists, waiting for time to elapse.
I thought I wanted you to be in my dream
I initially wanted you in my dreams, but your actions are louder than your dreams.
But you act louder than your screams do
Your actions speak louder than your vocal expressions.
I wonder what I was looking for
I question what I was seeking, leading me to abandon the pursuit.
Cause I don't go fishing anymore
I no longer engage in the activity of fishing, metaphorically or literally.
The roles reversed and I'm tied up in knot
The roles have changed, and now I find myself tied up in a knot.
I try to speak but I just sink, sink, sink, sink
I attempt to communicate, but I feel myself sinking deeper.
Ripped out the hook and I just hope I don't get caught
I remove myself from a potentially harmful situation and hope to avoid consequences.
I try to speak and I just risk it all
I take risks when I speak, putting everything on the line.
I say a word and I don't fall
I utter a word without consequences or negative outcomes.
I shout it out and I don't feel small
I shout boldly without feeling small or insignificant.
I wonder what I was looking for
I reflect on what I was searching for, prompting me to abandon fishing.
Cause I don't go fishing anymore
I no longer engage in the activity of fishing, suggesting a shift in priorities or perspectives.
