While You Were Sleeping
Awakening to Change: The Unnoticed Transformation
Lyrics
While you were sleeping
During the time you were asleep
Everything changed
The circumstances or situation underwent a significant transformation
Like a prisoner on his first day out
Similar to someone being released from prison, experiencing a drastic change
Everything changed
Emphasizing the substantial nature of the change that occurred
Fashion's all strange
Trends or styles in clothing have become unusual or unfamiliar
And the sunlight is blinding
The brightness of the sunlight is intense, possibly symbolizing a harsh or glaring reality
While you were hiding
While you were avoiding or concealing yourself
Everything changed
Reiteration of the substantial and all-encompassing nature of the change
While you were sleeping
During the time you were asleep
I got along
I managed to continue living or coping
As much as I missed you
Despite missing you, I managed to handle things
I got along
I coped or managed without you being present
Now that you're gone
Now that you're no longer here
Feel I've grown two inches
I feel like I've grown stronger or more resilient
While you were sleeping
During the time you were asleep
Everything changed
There was a significant and comprehensive change
Don't you know that you are losing me
Realization that you're losing my affection or connection
Wish that you could just wake up and see
Hoping you could awaken and perceive the situation
You are losing me
Emphasis on the idea of losing the connection or relationship
Fashion's all strange
Styles in clothing have become unusual or unfamiliar
And the sunlight is blinding
Reiteration of the intense or glaring nature of the sunlight
While you were hiding
While you were avoiding or concealing yourself
Everything changed
Highlighting the comprehensive and impactful change that occurred during your absence
