Burning Lights
Burning Lights: Unveiling the Journey of Time and Reflection
Lyrics
Some dreams are made for children
Some dreams are specifically crafted for children.
But most grow old with us
However, most dreams age and mature alongside us.
And when the air can hope to hold on
When the atmosphere can retain hope.
And to the ground from dust to rust
Things transition from being airborne to settling on the ground, from dust to rust.
Burning lights in the desert
Burning lights are present in the desert.
Such a sign only you would know
A distinctive sign recognizable only by a specific person.
Your running tires, they're out of pressure
The tires of a moving vehicle are losing pressure.
Such a sign only you would know
Similar to line 7, a unique sign known only to a particular individual.
And I've been a long haul driver
The singer has experience as a long-haul truck driver.
Moving things but the cops don't know
Transporting goods without detection by law enforcement.
Now I can see the writing
The singer can now discern and understand certain truths.
You are the last of the buffalo
The listener is portrayed as the last survivor of a vanishing or endangered species.
Burning lights in the desert
Similar to line 6, there are illuminating lights in the desert.
Such a sign only you would know
Reiterating the notion that the lights are a unique sign known only to a specific individual.
Your running tires, they're out of pressure
The tires of the vehicle are still losing pressure.
Such a sign only you would know
Reiterating the uniqueness of the sign known only to the listener.
Now I've been to California
The singer has traveled to California.
And I've been to New South Wales
The singer has also visited New South Wales.
Sometimes I, I pull over
Occasionally, the singer pauses when realizing they've left no trace of their presence.
When I realize I've left no trace
Burning lights in the desert
Repetition of the presence of burning lights in the desert.
Such a sign only you would know
Reiterating that the lights are a distinctive sign known only to the listener.
Your running tires, they're out of pressure
Continuation of the imagery of running tires losing pressure.
Such a sign only you would know
Emphasizing the uniqueness of the sign, recognizable only by the listener.
