Back to Sleep
Journey Through Parallel Lines: Back to Sleep
Lyrics
[Verse 1]:
Expressing familiarity with the situation
Been here maybe too many times
Indicates frequent experience in this place or situation
I know it like my hand
Knowing the situation intimately
Covered in all its lines
Understanding the details or intricacies
Cause if they see what I see, knew what I knew
Implying a shared experience
They'd end up like me too
Suggesting others would face the same outcome
cnd they'll know why parallel lines don't meet
Referencing the idea that certain things are destined not to intersect
[Pre Chorus]:
Introducing a transition in the narrative
When the sky turns upside down
Describing an unusual or chaotic situation
I'll fade into you, like I always do
Desiring to merge or become one with someone
[Chorus]:
Transitioning to a recurring theme or action
Wake up repeat it, it's getting too deep
Repeating a routine that feels overwhelming
Wake up repeat it, can't change but I keep on
Continuing a repetitive cycle despite the desire for change
Blaming myself, saying this time it's no dream
Taking responsibility but doubting the reality of the situation
But then I go back to sleep
Returning to a state of unconsciousness or denial
[Verse 2]:
Continuing the narrative of encountering familiar yet unknown individuals
They seem like faces I should know
Seeing faces that seem recognizable
But I can't find out where they all came from
Unable to place or identify their origin
Cause if they act like I act, do what I do
Suggesting others behaving similarly
They'd end up like me too
Expecting similar consequences for others
cnd they'll know why I let the sun rise, on its own
Letting events unfold naturally without interference
[Pre Chorus]:
Reintroducing the transition in the narrative
When the sky turns upside down
Describing an unusual or chaotic situation
I'll fade into you, like I always do
Desiring to merge or become one with someone
[Chorus]:
Reiterating the cycle of repetitive actions
Wake up repeat it, it's getting too deep
Continuing a routine that feels overwhelming
Wake up repeat it, can't change but I keep on
Continuing a repetitive cycle despite the desire for change
Blaming myself, saying this time it's no dream
Taking responsibility but doubting the reality of the situation
But then I go back to sleep
Returning to a state of unconsciousness or denial
