Electric Dreams
Journey Beyond Stars: Decoding Electric Dreams
Lyrics
Maybe I'll go where I can see the stars
Contemplating going to a place where stars are visible.
I'll head north in my flying car
Expressing the idea of traveling north in a futuristic flying car.
Away from San Francisco, and all that I know
Desiring to move away from San Francisco and familiar surroundings.
We can leave our electric sheep back home
Suggesting leaving behind artificial or fake aspects of life ("electric sheep").
Said users and losers sit perfectly still
Describing people who conform and stay motionless in their lives.
But I refuse
Expressing a personal refusal to conform.
Something inside makes you go for the kill
Referring to a drive or impulse to succeed or dominate.
Was it something in the drugs we used?
Questioning if the desire to succeed was influenced by drug use.
Electric Dreams
Introducing the theme of "Electric Dreams," possibly dreams influenced by technology.
Swirling 'round your head
Describing a sensation or theme surrounding electric dreams.
Did you hear a word I said to you?
Questioning if the listener is paying attention or comprehending.
Electric Dreams
Reiterating the theme of dreams influenced by technology.
Everything in its place
Highlighting order and organization within these electric dreams.
As they drift to outer space
Imagining a journey to outer space within these dreams.
Electric Dreams
Re-emphasizing the theme of electric dreams.
So emigrate or degenerate
Suggesting a choice between migrating or facing decline.
They leave the earth, but you and I will wait
Comparing the departure of some from Earth to staying put.
Right here in San Francisco and just decompose
Opting to remain in San Francisco and decay rather than emigrate.
Under the dull light of the stars through the smoke
Observing the stars and life through a dim, smoky atmosphere.
Said users and losers sit perfectly still
Reiterating the idea of people who stay static in life.
But I refuse
Personal refusal to conform continues.
Something inside makes you go for the kill
Repeating the idea of an internal drive for success or dominance.
Was it something in the drugs we used?
Reflecting on whether drug use influenced the drive for success.
