Lyrics
The time that sits between us
The temporal distance or separation existing between us.
And these empty hands
The lack or absence of something tangible or fulfilling.
The picture in my head
An image or representation in my mind that remains perplexing or incomprehensible.
That I can't understand
Unable to grasp or make sense of the aforementioned mental image.
We dreamt of blue skies,
We envisioned a future characterized by optimism or hopefulness.
but they turned black
However, those aspirations were marred by negativity or adversity.
and the bitter feelings
Emotions of resentment or acrimony dominate.
are all I ever get
These negative emotions seem to be all that is consistently experienced.
Paper planes crash in the wind
Efforts or endeavors collapse or fail under external forces.
Sand Castles melt
The fleeting nature of constructed dreams or ambitions.
We'll sell our dreams
We compromise or relinquish our aspirations to an unfamiliar entity or person.
To the foreign man
To a foreign individual or entity, we surrender our dreams.
The rain comes fallin'
Precipitation descends from the sky.
You will run outside
In response, you'll venture outdoors.
You'll wash your body
To cleanse yourself physically.
Forget that you were mine
Attempt to erase the memories or association with me.
And you will dream of blue skies,
Reverting to a hopeful state, imagining positivity.
But they will turn black
Yet, these optimistic thoughts will be clouded by negativity.
And the bitter feelings
The persisting feelings of bitterness or resentment.
are all you'll ever get
These negative emotions will likely be your predominant experience.
