Our Little Innocence
Awakening from Slumber: Unveiling the Hidden Meaning in 'Our Little Innocence'
Lyrics
faces lost entirely
Faces completely forgotten or lost
a distant memory
A memory that feels far away
but you don’t why
An uncertainty about the reason
cages locked now you’re used to it
Feeling accustomed to being confined in cages, while the television displays sorrow
while the tv cries
The television exhibits emotional distress or sadness
you don’t know why
An absence of understanding regarding the situation
they don’t want to bring you back to life
There's no intention to revive or restore one's vitality
only wanna keep you fast asleep
Desire to maintain a state of unconsciousness or unawareness
so long
A farewell or goodbye expressed over time
our little innocence
A reference to the lost purity or naivety
At last
Finally, a resolution or conclusion
This world starts to feel like we can’t go back
The world seems irreversibly changed, making a return impossible
If you can’t see it
Doubt about the existence of something if it's not perceived visually
Is it even real
Raising a question on the reality of something unseen
If you can’t feel it
Questioning the authenticity of something if it's not felt emotionally
Is it even real
Doubt regarding the reality of an experience devoid of emotional connection
they don’t want to bring you back to life
Similar to line 9, suggesting a reluctance to revive or restore one's vitality
only wanna keep you fast asleep
Desire to maintain a state of unconsciousness or unawareness reiterated
so long
A repetition of bidding farewell or goodbye over time
our little innocence
A reiterated reference to the lost purity or naivety
At last
Reiteration of a resolution or conclusion
This world starts to feel like we can’t go back
Expressing the irreversibility of change in the world
