Dreams Don't Remember Your Name
Unveiling Life's Mysteries: Dreams, Surrender, and the Real Answers
Lyrics
Any day now this old blindfold
Anticipation of a revelation or realization, represented by the metaphor of an old blindfold.
Will tumble and I'll be awake
Upon the revelation, the speaker will be fully awake and aware.
There's nothing so sad as a good thief
Expressing sadness about a skilled thief who lacked the wisdom to know when to stop stealing.
Who never knew how much to take
Reflecting on the consequences of not understanding limits or boundaries in actions.
And I'll leave with my half finished scrapbook
Leaving with an incomplete record of memories, suggesting an unfinished relationship or journey.
My pictures of her will remain
Memories of a person, possibly a romantic interest, will persist despite the physical departure.
There's nothing as easy as living
Stating the simplicity of living, juxtaposed with the complexity of dreams not recalling specific individuals.
And dreams don't remember your name
Highlighting the forgetfulness of dreams, indicating they don't retain memories of specific people.
There's no real answer
Emphasizing the absence of a definitive solution or response.
And everybody here is guessing
People are uncertain, guessing about life's complexities.
And life's just fine without us
Life continues, indifferent to the speaker's presence.
The things that we do will remain
Actions and their consequences endure over time.
Any day now I'll surrender
Anticipation of surrendering or giving in, possibly to fate or circumstances.
And maybe they'll turn back my clock
Hoping for a reversal of time, a desire to undo or change past events.
And I'll wish half my life away gladly
Willingly wishing away a significant portion of life, perhaps in regret.
And no one will hear when I talk
A sense of isolation, feeling unheard when expressing thoughts or concerns.
There's nothing so real as an answer
The truth or a solution is emphasized as a concrete and genuine aspect of life.
When all that you need is a bed
A basic need for rest or comfort in the face of life's challenges.
And the life that you thought you were living
The life one believed they were living is revealed to belong to someone else.
Is somebody else's instead
An existential crisis or realization about the nature of one's existence.
There's no real answer
Reiteration of the absence of a definitive answer in life.
And everybody here is guessing
Continued uncertainty among people, with everyone guessing about life's mysteries.
And life's just fine without us
Life progresses independently of individual experiences, implying a sense of insignificance.
The things that we do will remain
Actions and their enduring impact on the world are reiterated.
There's no real answer
Reiteration of the lack of a definite answer in the complexities of life.
And everybody here is guessing
Continued uncertainty among people, emphasizing the universal nature of guessing.
And life's just fine without us
Life's continuity and well-being without the specific involvement of individuals.
The things that we do will remain
The enduring nature of actions and their consequences is reiterated.
