Lyrics
Imagine
Expressing a creative or imaginative state
Jasmine and Aladdin like it's magic
Referencing the characters from Aladdin to convey a magical feeling in a relationship
You could be the one to make it happen
Encouraging the listener to take initiative in making a desired relationship a reality
Each and everyday I wish I had it
Expressing a persistent desire for a particular experience or feeling
Seven days a week, I swear that love can only feel this way
Stating the intensity and constancy of love, possibly emphasizing its positive nature
So say my name when you need help from someone that you know you hate
Requesting acknowledgment and assistance from someone despite a strained relationship
Talk out loud so you can hear the sounds of past mistakes
Encouraging reflection on past mistakes by vocalizing thoughts
I don't think your heart could hurt cause stone is hard to break
Suggesting emotional resilience or numbness, comparing the heart to stone
Can you see what I can see, the road that few would take
Challenging the listener to consider unconventional paths in life
But you believe in toxic drinks and pray your soul to take
Highlighting a belief in self-destructive behaviors like consuming toxic substances
And I was only 17 when love first showed it's face
Recalling a significant encounter with love at the age of 17
I feel weak from all the weight, so I'll wait for better days
Expressing vulnerability and anticipation for a better future
Pray your soul to take
Repeating the desire for a positive outcome, suggesting a prayer for the soul
So what's that sound
Prompting attention to a mysterious or significant noise
What is that sound
Reiterating the curiosity about a particular sound
Drinks to the sky, let the feeling come down
Encouraging celebration and letting positive emotions descend
So say my name
Repeating the call for recognition and assistance
So say my name
Reiterating the need for acknowledgment and support
Talk out loud so you can hear the sounds of past mistakes
Emphasizing the importance of reflecting on past mistakes through vocal expression
So if you think you see things
Questioning the perception of reality
Why don't you just tell me
Challenging someone to share their thoughts or observations
You probably don't believe me
Suspecting skepticism or disbelief from others
Coping isn't healthy
Highlighting the unhealthy nature of coping mechanisms
So live it and breathe it
Encouraging immersion in and acceptance of life
I want to see you happy
Expressing a desire for the listener's happiness
It could be without me
Suggesting the possibility of happiness without the speaker's presence
Don't you doubt me
Asserting confidence and discouraging doubt
Talk out loud so you can hear the sounds of past mistakes
Reiterating the value of vocalizing reflections on past errors
I don't think your heart could hurt cause stone is hard to break
Repeating the idea of emotional resilience or numbness
Can you see what I can see, the road that few would take
Challenging the listener to consider unconventional paths in life (similar to line 9)
But you believe in toxic drinks and pray your soul to take
Reiterating the belief in self-destructive behaviors and the prayer for the soul
And I was only 17 when love first showed her face
Recalling a significant encounter with love, potentially suggesting a continuation from line 11
I feel weak from all the weight, so I'll wait for better days
Expressing vulnerability and anticipation for a better future (similar to line 12)
Pray your soul to take
Repeating the desire for a positive outcome and suggesting a prayer for the soul (similar to line 13)
