Koora Dreams
Dreaming of Love: A Melancholic Odyssey
Lyrics
I skipped a beat when I saw you in a bad dream
I felt a sudden shock or disturbance when I encountered you in a troubling dream.
Digging something from the ground
Engaged in an activity of uncovering something from the earth.
Looking like as if you've found
Appearing as if you have discovered something significant.
All these notes and poetry
A collection of musical notes and written expressions.
The goddamn circus is in town
An exclamation that a chaotic or absurd situation has arrived.
There's nothing left above the ground to lose
There's nothing valuable or meaningful left on the surface.
I'm giving up the blues
Choosing to move away from feelings of sadness or melancholy.
Where do I go from here?
Expressing uncertainty about the next steps in life.
And your sneer lit up
Your contemptuous expression brightened up.
Hauling off my disguise
Removing a disguise or facade with force.
My fears built up
Anxiety and worries accumulated.
Drowning off my goodbyes
Sinking under the weight of parting words.
I can hardly seem to get you out of my mind
Struggling to forget about you.
Can't walk away from the dream
Unable to distance oneself from the dream.
I could feel something eating up my insides
Sensing internal turmoil or decay.
I've got nothing to offer up to the skies
Having nothing valuable to offer to higher powers.
Can you help me breathe?
Seeking assistance to ease emotional burdens.
Take this load off my heart
Requesting relief from emotional pain.
I'm ripping apart at the seams
Feeling emotionally torn or broken.
As if I could choose not to see you as my muse
As if the choice not to see you as inspiration exists.
You know I just can't refuse
Acknowledging inability to resist your influence.
Cause I can only write all these lines
Writing creatively is only possible when thoughts are occupied by you.
When youre on my mind
The acknowledgment that thoughts of you cannot be denied.
That I can't deny
Draw another line in this heart
Marking another emotional boundary in the heart.
I've played all my cards
Exhausted all available strategies or options.
I can only rhyme all these lines
Creating poetic lines is only possible when thoughts are occupied by you.
When youre on my mind
Admitting that the creative process becomes a wrongdoing due to thoughts of you.
It's only a crime
Considered a transgression or offense.
If I draw another line your heart
Creating another emotional boundary in your heart is only a transgression if it turns you into art.
And turn you to art
Transforming you into artistic expression.
And your sneer lit up
Your contemptuous expression brightened up again.
Hauling off my disguise
Forcefully removing a disguise or facade, revealing accumulated fears.
My fears built up
Anxiety and worries built up once more.
Drowning off my goodbyes
Sinking under the weight of parting words once again.
I can hardly seem to get you out of my mind
Continuing to struggle with thoughts of you.
I'm trying to walk away from the dream
Attempting to distance oneself from the dream.
