Lyrics
I see you
I acknowledge your presence
Over there
Not specified
With your fire in your eyes
Observing your passionate and intense gaze
All the questions in the air
All the uncertainties linger in the atmosphere
How's it feel? How's it feel?
Pondering on emotions and reality
How's it feel? How's it feel?
-Is it real? Is it real? Is it real?
-You're lost can ya
Feeling disoriented or confused
Take this one day at a time
Suggesting the importance of taking things one step at a time
You're living in a dream world
Living in a state of imagination or unreality
Don't forget to come home
Reminder not to lose touch with reality and return home
Don't forget to come home
-Something's in my mind that might
Contemplating a desire for liberation from a repetitive and tiresome existence; valuing the importance of perseverance and struggle
Release me from another tired night
-And if I lived a thousand lives
-Would it all be for nothing without a fight
-Say Sawubona
Invoking a greeting, "Sawubona," to an old friend and emphasizing the need for illumination to perceive true colors
Old friend
-If you wanna see the color you need light
-But I don't wanna
Expressing reluctance to keep emotions hidden, possibly due to a perceived limitation of time
Hold this in
-Cause I think I might be running out of time
-Say Sawubona!
Reiteration of the greeting, "Sawubona," with an additional call to come alive
Say Sawubona!
-Say Sawubona!
-(Bona-Baby)
-Come alive!
Encouragement to embrace the present and not dwell on the past
Don't look back
-You left nothing behind
-All the things you're gonna find
Expressing a desire for everything and questioning the nature of achieving one's aspirations
Oh, you want it all
-So, it go-o-oes
-My feet are off the flo-o-oor
-Is this how you fly?
-Oh, just take it all
-Somethings in my mind that might
Similar to lines 13-16, emphasizing the struggle and potential significance of multiple lives
Release me from another tired night
-And if I lived a thousand lives
-Would it all be for nothing without a fight
-Say Sawubona
Repetition of the greeting, "Sawubona," and a sense of urgency about time running out
Old friend
-If you wanna see the color you need light
-But I don't wanna
-Hold this in
-Cause I think I might be running out of time
-Say Sawubona!
Reiteration of the greeting and a call to come alive
(Say Sawubona baby)
-Say Sawubona!
-(Say Sawubona)
-Say Sawubona!
-(Say Sawubona baby)
-(Bona-Baby)
-Come alive!
-(Say Sawubona)
Repetition of the greeting, "Sawubona"
