Lyrics
I want to go back
I have a desire to return to a previous time.
To when the world was a simpler place
Reflecting on a time when the world was less complex.
But here we stand at
Expressing the current location or situation.
The edge of space
Being at the boundary or limit of outer space.
Where there were meadows
Reminiscing about open fields, now replaced by buildings.
I now see buildings that cut the sky
Observing skyscrapers that dominate the skyline.
I wonder how the birds could fly
Contemplating the impact of human development on nature.
There are no more flowers
Noticing the absence of flowers at the current location.
Up where we are
Describing a place where flowers are no longer present.
I can't call this home
Feeling disconnected from the current environment.
I know that's far gone
Acknowledging that the past is irretrievable.
I miss the daisies
Expressing nostalgia for daisies and their association with flower crowns.
So I could make myself flower crowns
Recalling the ability to create flower crowns from daisies in the past.
But that is long gone ago
Acknowledging that the mentioned time is now in the distant past.
I look around me
Surveying the current surroundings.
And all I see is the industry
Noting the prevalence of industrial elements in the environment.
I miss when I could climb in trees
Longing for the ability to climb trees, contrasting with the present reality.
The lush green landscapes
Remembering vibrant green landscapes, possibly depicted in paintings.
Recall, only in my dad's paintings
Recalling lush landscapes only existing in the artist's father's paintings.
I miss the times when he would sing
Missing the times when the artist's father would sing.
See the stars, they're streaming
Observing the beauty of the starry night sky.
Skies are gleaming
Highlighting the gleaming quality of the skies.
I'm in tears just thinking
Expressing emotional distress at the thought of others not seeing the stars.
How you cannot see them
Reflecting on the inability to see stars from a spaceship.
Now on this spaceship
Describing the current location as a spaceship.
I've got no daisies for flower crowns
Regretting the absence of daisies for making flower crowns in the spaceship.
The world is way too loud
Commenting on the overwhelming noise in the current world.
Oh, don't you tell me
Rejecting the notion that life on Mars will be great.
That life on Mars will be great
Acknowledging that there is no preferable alternative.
I know that there's nowhere else
Expressing a desire for a change in fate.
I wish there was a turn of fate
Reiterating the wish to return to a simpler time.
I want to go back
Expressing the desire to go back to a less complicated era.
To when the world was a simpler place
Reflecting on the complexity of the current situation.
But here we stand
Reiterating the current position at the edge of space.
The edge of space
Acknowledging the uniqueness of the current life.
Our life is different
Expressing the difficulty of saying goodbye to someone.
It pains me to say goodbye to you
Expressing deep affection and regret for parting with someone.
I will sorely miss you
Recognizing the differences in the current life situation.
I know it's different
Expressing a wish to remain and live with someone.
I wish I could stay and live with you
Reiterating the deep affection and regret for leaving someone.
I will sorely miss you
Expressing a profound sense of missing someone.
