Out of Time
Journey Through Melancholy: Jason Collett's Reflections on Time
Lyrics
Well, I got your invitation
Expressing acknowledgment of receiving an invitation.
But it never crossed my mind
Not considering or thinking about the invitation.
Your casual obliteration
Referring to the casual destruction or ruin, possibly in a relationship context.
Would cross the line
Realizing that the casual obliteration has crossed a boundary or limit.
On a rainy day highway
Describing a journey on a rainy highway, setting a somber tone.
And the melancholy got on
Feeling a sense of sadness or sorrow.
I got the most nostalgic feeling
Experiencing a strong nostalgic emotion.
I'm gonna head right by on
Choosing to continue the journey despite the emotional state.
We're out of time
Highlighting that time is running out or has run out.
On down the line
Suggesting a progression down a timeline where time is limited.
Just get behind
Encouraging others to follow or catch up.
We're all out of time
Emphasizing the collective realization that time is exhausted.
The perennial fatigue of the times
Describing the enduring tiredness or weariness of the current era.
When you're long in the tooth
Referring to being experienced or old.
Short in the sleeve
Having little patience or tolerance left.
There's nowhere left to hide
Suggesting nowhere to escape or avoid the challenges.
And the raindrops fall safely
Depicting raindrops falling along with tears, adding to the emotional atmosphere.
Along with the tears
Connecting rain with sadness or emotional pain.
Another cool heart of the lonely
Describing someone with a cool heart feeling lonely.
In the cool [Incomprehensible] clear
Reference to unclear or ambiguous emotions.
We're out of time
Reiterating the theme of running out of time.
On down the line
Continuation of the timeline where time is limited.
Just get behind
Encouraging others to accept the reality of time running out.
We're all out of time
Stressing the collective experience of time depletion.
