Lyrics
Just for once in my life or maybe most of the time
Expressing a desire for a change in life, possibly a deviation from the routine.
I could never hold what's mine
Inability to maintain possession or control over what is considered one's own.
We just preach what we're told
Speaking or promoting ideas received from others without critical examination.
The more we live the less we know
Life's experiences lead to a decrease in understanding or certainty.
So just say everything's alright
Suggesting a tendency to deny problems and pretend that everything is fine.
Maybe we're just born to say goodbye
Contemplating the idea that goodbyes might be an inherent part of existence.
Or maybe were just strangers out of time
Considering the possibility that individuals are fundamentally disconnected from their temporal context.
Oh oh oh oh
Repetition for emphasis or to evoke a particular emotional response.
Oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh
-Well all my friends are getting old
Observing the aging process of friends and the accompanying life changes.
They're a changing names changing homes
Noting the dynamic nature of friendships, with people changing names and homes.
They just dance with their thoughts at night
Describing a reflective or contemplative state of mind during the nighttime.
Well starting new is a crime
Suggesting societal disapproval of starting anew, as it is considered a 'crime.'
Because there's too much to leave behind
Acknowledging the difficulty of leaving behind a substantial past.
Won't you say everything is just fine
Encouraging a positive facade, urging others to affirm that everything is fine.
Oh
A moment of emphasis or reflection.
Maybe we're just born to say goodbye
Reiteration of the idea that goodbyes may be inherent or inevitable.
Or maybe we're just strangers out of time
-Oh oh oh oh
Repetition for emphasis or to evoke a particular emotional response.
Oh oh oh
-Oh oh oh
-You got a promise keep it
Highlighting the importance of keeping promises.
I'm hiding all my secrets somewhere and
Indicating the concealment of personal truths or emotions in a undisclosed place.
I don't know what's happened
Expressing confusion or uncertainty about current circumstances.
I'm feeling defeated
Feeling overwhelmed or demoralized by challenges or setbacks.
Your words just bleed into each other
Desiring a response or acknowledgement from others.
Well I need a reaction
Expressing a need for a significant response or change in the situation.
Maybe we're just born to say goodbye
Reiteration of the idea that goodbyes may be inherent or inevitable.
Or maybe we're just strangers out of time
-Maybe we're just strangers out of time
Suggesting that being strangers in the context of time is a possibility.
Yeah yeah
An emphatic expression, possibly indicating a realization or acceptance.
Well maybe we're just strangers out of time
Reiteration of the idea that being strangers in the dimension of time is a conceivable reality.
Yeah yeah
