Lyrics
Now we're running out of time
Feeling a sense of urgency as time is running out
Wonder when we draw the line
Contemplating the decision to set boundaries or limits
How was I supposed to know
Expressing uncertainty about understanding a situation
The king would turn us all to stone
Surprised that the king has transformed everyone into stone
Drifting
Being carried along aimlessly
Drifting down a river and it's sparkling
Moving along a river, observing its beauty
I touch the water and it's hurting
Experiencing pain when touching the water, contrary to expectations
Unlike water should
Noticing that the water doesn't behave as it should
Floating
Floating on a cloud and feeling a temporary sense of beauty
Floating on a cloud and I feel beautiful
Enjoying a moment of beauty, followed by a realization of vulnerability
Just for a moment then I start to fall
Realizing the fleeting nature of positive moments
Clouds move with the wind
Observing clouds moving with the wind, a metaphor for impermanence
Now we're running out of time
Reiterating the urgency of the situation as time runs out
Wonder when we draw the line
Reflecting on when to establish clear boundaries
How was I supposed to know
Expressing a lack of prior knowledge about the king's actions
The king would turn us all to stone
Recalling the king's transformation of everyone into stone
Down the well I can hear her sing melodies
Hearing a melody from someone in a well
Her words of honesty leave me weak
Being moved by the honesty in the person's words
So I won't help her out
Choosing not to assist the person despite their honesty
Dreaming
Engaging in thoughts or fantasies while asleep
Dreaming about what it would feel like to fly
Imagining the sensation of flying
Dreaming about what you hide behind your eyes
Contemplating what is hidden behind someone's eyes
And I will wake up soon
Anticipating waking up from the dream soon
Trying to run away from the gnome king
Attempting to escape from the gnome king
Suck the colour out from my skin
Experiencing a draining or sucking away of color
Turn my world to grey
Describing the transformation of the world into a grayscale
Now we're running out of time
Highlighting the ongoing urgency of the situation
Wonder when we draw the line
Pondering the decision of setting boundaries as time passes
How was I supposed to know
Expressing the lack of prior knowledge about the king's actions
The king would turn us all to stone
Recalling the king's transformation of everyone into stone
Down the well I can hear her sing melodies
Hearing a melody from someone in a well
Her words of honesty leave me weak
Being moved by the honesty in the person's words
So I won't help her out
Choosing not to assist the person despite their honesty
Down the well I can hear her sing melodies
Hearing a melody from someone in a well
Her words of honesty leave me weak
Being moved by the honesty in the person's words
So I won't help her out
Choosing not to assist the person despite their honesty
