Lyrics
[Same as Separation 1]
[Same as Separation 1]
And if I turn away, maybe I'm just too afraid to let you into my life
If I turn away, it might be because of fear, hesitant to allow you into my life.
Let you into my heart, maybe I think you won't like what it is you find
Avoiding letting you into my heart, fearing you may not like what you discover within.
And if I run away, maybe I'm just too afraid to let you into my life
If I run away, it could be due to fear, reluctance to let you into my life.
Let you into my heart, maybe I think you won't like what it is you find
Similar to line 4, hesitant to let you into my heart, fearing potential rejection.
And if I leave today my intention is not to be away
If I leave, it's not with the intention of being distant; union is valued.
And I know the only worthy act is union
Acknowledgment that true worth lies in unity.
I'm not seeking distance, only somewhere where I feel safe
Expressing a desire for a safe space rather than distance in relationships.
I know the walls between us are the illusion, so I say
Recognizing that perceived walls between individuals are illusions.
The separation between you and I is just an illusion baby
Asserting that the perceived separation is an illusion, emphasizing unity.
Cause my eyes can't see what your mind thinks about what it is my heart is feeling
Limitations of perception; unable to see into each other's hearts and minds.
And your ears can't hear my mind is screaming, want to let it all out but I just drown in doubt,
Communication barriers, feeling trapped in doubt, unable to express inner thoughts.
And I want you
Expressing a desire for the person despite the challenges.
I had a dream about such a sweet young girl, but now she seems so far away
Reflecting on a dream about a girl, feeling distant from that ideal now.
Had a dream we would be together forever, but now it seems so far away
Had a dream of eternal togetherness, but reality feels distant.
And now she seems so far away, because nothing lasts forever
Feeling distant from the initial dream; acknowledging impermanence.
And sometimes dreams seem to fade, because nothing lasts forever
Noting the fading of dreams, recognizing the transient nature of things.
Sometimes I think tomorrow will be much worse
Expressing pessimism about the future, anticipating challenges.
Sometimes I think that I should just give up today
Contemplating giving up today as a solution to the perceived difficulties.
I had a dream about justice in our world, but now it seems so far away
Reflecting on a dream about justice, feeling distant from that ideal now.
Had a dream about peace on earth, but now it seems so far away
Had a dream of peace on earth, but reality feels distant.
And now it seems so far away, cause nothing lasts forever
Feeling distant from the initial dream of peace; acknowledging impermanence.
Sometimes I think tomorrow will be much worse
Noting the fading of dreams related to peace, recognizing the transient nature of things.
Sometimes I think that I should just give up today
Expressing pessimism about the future, anticipating challenges.
Never give up
An emphatic statement to never give up despite challenges.
Cause dreams are what make the world go round
Highlighting the importance of dreams in shaping the world.
