Lyrics
You know that thing
You are aware of that particular thing
That you say you sometimes dream of
Something you mention as a dream at times
Well I think it's happening to me
The speaker believes that this dream is becoming a reality for them
You know they say
There is a common saying or belief
That time will take a hold you
Time has a powerful effect on individuals
Well
A pause, perhaps indicating contemplation or hesitation
You kill the voice or it kills you
A struggle to overcome an internal voice or challenge
oh no
An expression of concern or realization
You shouldn't really speak about it
Caution against openly discussing the experience
Oh no
Reiteration of the warning not to talk about it
You shouldn't really speak about it
Emphasizing the importance of silence
and you look thin
Observation of physical appearance, suggesting possible distress
Well the drugs will make you thinner still
The use of drugs contributing to weight loss
The sort of thing you'd never see
A description of something elusive or hidden
Look up and up and up above now
Encouragement to look beyond and appreciate one's fortunes
And count your lucky stars
Suggesting a sense of gratitude or reflection on luck
but oh no
Reiteration of the warning against discussing the experience
You shouldn't really speak about it
Emphasis on the need for discretion
You shouldn't really speak about it
Repetition of the cautionary advice
cause you know that thing
Reference to the previously mentioned dream or experience
That you say you sometimes dream of
Reiteration of the dream and its potential manifestation
Well I think it's happening to me
Reaffirmation of the belief that the dream is coming true
