Endless
Chasing Shadows of Desire: LUCIANBLOMKAMP's Endless Reflections
Lyrics
Looking back, you were looking forward.
Reflecting on the past, anticipating the future.
Endless task. Was it so important?
Questioning the significance of an endless task.
Cause all we have is time and it’s getting faster and faster.
Acknowledging the fleeting nature of time.
All these words we find are just a way to waste some time.
Suggesting that words are used to pass the time without real purpose.
I got what I want but, I want what he’s got.
Expressing desire for what others possess.
I got what I want but, I want what she’s got.
Repeating the theme of desire for what others have.
I got what I want but, I want what they’ve got.
Continuing the theme of wanting what others possess.
I got what I want but, I want what I lost.
Expressing a sense of loss and wanting what was lost.
So much time spent chasing clouds.
Reflecting on time spent on unimportant pursuits.
I’m going to live in the crowd.
Expressing a desire to be part of the crowd, seeking connection.
Done fucking around.
Deciding to stop engaging in frivolous activities.
Credits roll, fade to black.
Describing the end of a situation, possibly a metaphorical fade-out.
There’s no going back.
Stating that there is no possibility of returning to the past.
You can’t live through the past.
Emphasizing the inability to live in or through the past.
When all I had was time, I let it get faster and faster.
Reflecting on how time was not valued when it was abundant.
So all these words I find are just a way to waste some time.
Reiterating the idea that words are used to pass time without purpose.
I got what I want but, I want what he’s got.
Repeating the theme of desiring what others possess.
I got what I want but, I want what she’s got.
Continuing the theme of wanting what others have.
I got what I want but, I want what they’ve got.
Expressing a desire for what others possess.
I got what I want but, I want what I lost.
Expressing a sense of loss and wanting what was lost.
I have everything I want and I still have nothing.
Paradoxically feeling emptiness despite having everything desired.
What more could I want but I keep on wanting.
Expressing an ongoing sense of desire despite having seemingly everything.
