Daydreamer
Lost in Dreams: J.T. Rogers' Melancholic Daydreamer
Lyrics
I'm having trouble in my mind
I am facing internal struggles and challenges within my mind.
I'm lost in dreams of another time
I am immersed in dreams of a different time.
Where flowers bloom and the sea's nearby
Imagining a place where flowers bloom, and the sea is nearby.
Nothing will seem to pass the time
Feeling that time is not progressing or passing by.
And though I have everything I need
Despite having everything I need, there's a sense of dissatisfaction.
And my head's in the clouds
My thoughts are in a dreamlike state, detached from reality.
My body's here but I'm not around
Physically present, but emotionally or mentally absent.
Oh lord
An expression of inner turmoil or seeking guidance.
And I think of all the things I wished was
Reflecting on things I wish were different or better.
Better about now
An acknowledgment of dissatisfaction with the present.
When all I wanted a year ago was now
Contrasting current desires with past wishes.
I'm having trouble trying to think
Struggling to focus or make sense of thoughts.
When all I wanna do is dream
A desire to escape into a world of dreams.
Of fairies and sunshine in the street
Envisioning a place with fantasy elements like fairies and sunshine.
Where stress is scarce and love is free
Yearning for a stress-free environment where love is abundant.
And though I should just be happy
Despite external success, internal happiness is elusive.
And my head's in the clouds
Continued detachment from reality with thoughts in the clouds.
My body's here but I'm not around
Physically present, but emotionally or mentally distant.
Oh lord
A plea or expression of inner turmoil.
And I think of all the things I wished was
Reflecting on desires for improvement in the current situation.
Better about now
Comparing current dissatisfaction with past aspirations.
When all I wanted a year ago was now
Contrasting current desires with past wishes.
And my head's in the clouds
Reiteration of a dreamlike state with thoughts in the clouds.
Ooh
An interjection or expression of emotion.
My body's here but I'm not around
Physically present, but emotionally or mentally absent.
Oh lord
A plea or expression of inner turmoil.
And I think of all the things I wished was
Reflecting on things I wish were different or better.
Better about now
Expressing a desire for improvement in the current situation.
When all I wanted a year ago was now
Comparing current dissatisfaction with past aspirations.
Was now
Reiteration of the desire for a better present moment.
