Lyrics
There was a dream, that I had the other day
Reflecting on a recent dream experience.
And it told me, things would be different
The dream conveyed a sense of change or difference.
You know I, I couldn't tell you why that I believed it
Expressing uncertainty about why the dream was believed.
But I believed it
Despite uncertainty, the dream was trusted and believed.
Do you ever, throw the trash away and find theres something
Contemplating the consequences of discarding something.
You shouldn't of thrown out
Regretting discarding something valuable.
Nevermind, cause I've got all this shit I'm holding on to
Acknowledging emotional baggage and unresolved issues.
And its weighing me down
The emotional burden is becoming overwhelming.
How you gone pretend that its ok
Questioning the act of pretending everything is fine.
Cause I don't think it is, no no
Doubting the genuineness of the situation's okayness.
How you gone pretend you didn't say that
Addressing someone who said or did something significant.
Cause I know that you did, you did
Acknowledging the reality of the previous statement or action.
How you gonna take the time to slow down
Reflecting on taking time to pause or reflect.
Cause I already did, I did
Having already taken the time to slow down.
How you gone pretend that its ok
Repeating the questioning of pretending everything is okay.
I guess you think it is
Suggesting that the person believes it is okay.
There was a dream, in which all of my bedroom walls were sideways, yeah they were sideways
Describing another dream where the walls were sideways.
Well you know, I don't believe in ghosts or instant replays, or leap days
Expressing skepticism about supernatural concepts.
But I try to write a song to make everything ok, its never ok
Attempting to find solace through songwriting, acknowledging it's challenging.
Nevermind, cause I've got all this shit I'm holding on to
Reiterating the presence of emotional baggage.
And its weighing me down
The emotional burden continues to be a significant issue.
How you gone pretend that its ok
Revisiting the theme of pretending that everything is okay.
Cause I don't think it is, no no
Expressing disbelief about the situation being okay.
How you gone pretend you didn't say that
Acknowledging a significant statement made by someone.
Cause I know that you did, you did
Confirming the truth of the previously mentioned statement.
How you gonna take the time to slow down
Reflecting on the importance of slowing down, having already done so.
Cause I already did, I did
Confirming the act of having already taken the time to slow down.
How you gone pretend that its ok
Reiterating the questioning of pretending everything is okay.
I guess you think it is
Suggesting that the person believes it is okay despite doubts.
