So Sweet So Nice
Eternal Dance of Life: Embracing Joy and Loss
Lyrics
I Don’t mind
I am indifferent.
the passing of the days
Indifferent to the passage of time.
They just seem one and all the same Like a flower
Days appear monotonous, like a recurring pattern. Comparing to a flower.
Blooming in the spring
Metaphorically, life's vitality in spring.
I give in
Acceptance of the inevitable decline in winter.
To winter’s withering
Acknowledging the harshness of winter.
So sweet so nice Everything is waiting to die So sweet so high
Contrasting perspectives on life's sweetness and its inevitable end.
Nothing’s ever felt so alive
Intensity of feeling alive, even in the face of mortality.
Hide and Seek
Playing a game of Hide and Seek with life.
The world is yours to keep All the shapes
A sense of ownership and control over one's world.
Are waking in your sleep Some return
The dreamlike state where shapes emerge in dreams.
Without leaving a trace
Some experiences leave no trace or impact.
And Some become
Transformation into things avoided or feared.
The things we couldn’t face.
Confronting difficult aspects of life.
So sweet so nice Everything is waiting to die So sweet so high
Reiteration of the contrast between sweetness and the inevitability of death.
Nothing’s ever felt so alive
Emphasizing the intensity of feeling alive despite mortality.
When I’m done and on my way Hear the calling of the day
Heading towards the end, hearing the call of a new day.
On a weekend spree
A possibly hedonistic or carefree period on weekends.
With people that aren’t me
Surrounded by people who are not genuine.
I don’t want to wait
Impatience and unwillingness to wait.
And I don’t need to pretend That I don’t need a friend when all happiness is spent.
Rejecting pretense, expressing a need for genuine friendship in difficult times.
(Instrumental)
Instrumental break.
So sweet so nice Everything is waiting to die So sweet so high
Reiteration of the contrast between sweetness and the inevitability of death.
Nothing’s ever felt so alive
Re-emphasizing the intense feeling of being alive.
What the mirrors don’t reveal
The hidden or unspoken emotions not reflected in mirrors.
Is what you really feel
Questioning the authenticity of feelings.
Do you see the air around you?
Challenging perception and understanding of the surrounding environment.
What makes you think it’s true? When we’re down and spinning away when it’s all a game you play
When facing challenges, life is perceived as a game.
When your life stays in disguise And the dead are on the rise.
The struggle to maintain a facade, confronting the inevitability of death.
