Eve
Eve's Dream Unveiled: A Serpentine Symphony of Perception
Lyrics
What many men see is reality
Perception of reality varies among individuals.
But one man is a dream
One person's existence is like a dream, distinct from others.
What many recall is truth for all
What people remember is considered truth universally.
But you saw differently
You had a unique perspective that differed from the norm.
You thought it was autumn but it was yet spring
Mistakenly thinking it's autumn when it's actually spring.
The leaves had all fallen while you were asleep
Events unfolded while you were unaware, analogous to leaves falling while you slept.
And there in the garden
Reference to a garden, symbolizing a place of beauty or innocence.
Among all the trees
The garden is populated with trees, representing different aspects of life.
You saw me
The speaker is present in the garden.
You saw me
Reiteration of the speaker's presence, emphasizing significance.
Life was a gift to receive
Life was once perceived as a precious gift.
And there was no enemy
No perceived adversaries existed.
It didn't take long for the serpent's song
The introduction of negativity or deceit symbolized by the serpent's song.
To come in between
The serpent's influence causing a disruption in the positive perception.
You thought it was autumn but it was yet spring
Reiteration of the seasonal confusion, linking to the disruption.
You know how I wanted to believe
The speaker desired to believe despite challenges.
But there in the garden
The continuation of the narrative in the garden setting.
Among all the trees
Among the symbolic trees, the speaker is observed.
You saw me
Reaffirmation of being noticed in the disrupted state.
You saw me
Emphasis on the speaker's visibility despite challenges.
If it's a light we'll be alright
Positivity - the promise of being alright if it's light.
But if day is night
Raising a question about the paradox of day being night.
How can it be?
Raising awareness about contradictory aspects of existence.
If it's a light we'll be alright
Reiteration of the hope for well-being with light.
But if darkness is sight
Raising a question about the paradox of darkness being sight.
How can we see?
Raising awareness about contradictory aspects of perception.
You thought it was autumn
Repetition of the seasonal confusion, emphasizing the misunderstanding.
But you were asleep darling
Highlighting the unawareness during the confusion.
And there in the garden
Return to the garden setting with continued disruptions.
Among all the trees
Reiteration of the speaker's presence among symbolic elements.
You saw me
Reaffirmation of being noticed despite the confusion.
You saw me
Emphasis on the lasting impression of being seen.
But I was a dream
Acknowledgment of the speaker's dreamlike nature.
