Sleepwalking
Embracing Madness: Jeremy Blake's Musical Odyssey
Lyrics
Girl, I've always been this way
Expressing a consistent nature, unchanging personality or behavior.
Got nothing to say for myself
Acknowledging a lack of self-expression or meaningful communication.
Girl, I'm never gonna change
Declaring an unwillingness to undergo significant transformation.
So if you go or stay, I'll keep myself
Indicating a self-sufficiency regardless of the decision to leave or stay.
That's right
Asserting correctness or agreement with a preceding statement.
Some people fight their way
Observing the struggles some face in their waking hours.
Through their time awake
Comparing life's challenges to a nightmarish experience.
Like a bad dream
Suggesting a passive approach to confronting difficult situations.
I let the water flow
Allowing emotions or experiences to flow freely, not resisting.
I let the things I know
Being open to the influence of known things, ideas, or experiences.
Take me there
Willingness to let familiar elements guide the journey.
We're always gonna be a little crazy
Acknowledging a persistent inclination towards eccentricity.
We're always gonna be a little mad
Recognizing a tendency to exhibit a degree of insanity.
But we can always have ourselves a good time
Focusing on the ability to enjoy oneself despite quirks or challenges.
When we land
Highlighting the possibility of enjoyment after overcoming difficulties.
And the world is always gonna mess us up
Emphasizing the persistent disruptions from the external world.
The world is always gonna punch us down
Stating the world's inclination to bring individuals down.
But we can always have ourselves a good time
Reiterating the importance of finding joy despite life's challenges.
When we come down
Highlighting the enjoyment available upon returning to reality.
