Vanishing Act
Vanishing Act: Unraveling Life's Disappearances
Lyrics
It all went by a plan
Reference to a planned sequence of events.
His day ended up in a vanishing act
The day concludes with a mysterious disappearance.
Monday bore
Introduction of the day "Monday."
Passes before you know
Time passing quickly and unnoticed.
Those looking outside
Observers ensuring things are as expected.
Just to be sure
Verification to avoid surprises.
Are taken by surprise
People are shocked by the disappearance.
By his vanishing act
Reiteration of the vanishing act.
Vanish into nothing
Encouragement to disappear or escape.
You've got everything to lose
Consequences of disappearing: potential loss.
Your head feels underwater
Feeling mentally submerged or overwhelmed.
So just sink into the blue
Suggesting embracing the unknown or letting go.
I get kinda bummed out
Feeling down when aware of being noticed.
When I know they know I'm here
Blending into the surroundings, becoming unnoticed.
Fade into the background
Desire to make everything disappear.
Make it all just disappear
Expressing the wish for total disappearance.
Ledges turn to roads
Transition from challenges to paths forward.
As a cynic would say
Cynical perspective on life's developments.
I, I, I suppose
Uncertain acceptance or acknowledgment.
And they say
Introduction of a saying about pleasure and pain.
'pleasure takes the pain away'
Acknowledgment that pleasure can alleviate pain.
Oh we can't complain
Acceptance without complaint.
Bout the defeated's
Recognition of the defeated's aimless claims.
Aimless claim
Addressing the defeated's lack of purpose.
Vanish into nothing
Reiteration of the theme of disappearance.
You've got everything to lose
Warning about potential loss when disappearing.
Your head feels underwater
Continuation of the feeling of being overwhelmed.
So just sink into the blue
Suggestion to embrace the unknown or escape.
I get kinda bummed out
Feeling down when aware of being noticed.
When I know they know I'm here
Desire to fade into the background.
Fade into the background
Wish to make everything disappear.
Make it all just disappear
Repetition of the desire for total disappearance.
