Lyrics
Sometimes you try
Sometimes, despite efforts,
To fly so high and reach for the moon
There's an attempt to achieve great heights or goals, like reaching for the unreachable.
Often you know
Usually, one is aware
Of the glow that grows on those who ain't you
Of the admiration and attention given to those different from oneself.
A mind is drained
One's mental energy is depleted
No sounds to swim in
There's a lack of inspiration or stimuli to engage with.
For these are the days
These days are experienced
When all music feels the same
When all musical experiences seem indistinguishable or lack their usual impact.
The same
Reiteration: When everything feels the same in terms of music.
What did you say
Questioning what was communicated or realized
When you woke up that day and went straight back to bed
Starting a day with high hopes but ending up avoiding reality by staying in bed.
Isn't it true
Is it a fact
That the blue cotton lizard wouldn't speak to the wizard
That something unexpected or unconventional doesn't engage with something magical or extraordinary?
And you fell off the bed for the dream that smelled funny
Having an unusual dream and waking abruptly due to an odd sensation.
You went back to mommy
Seeking comfort or safety, typically from a maternal figure.
But she wasn't there
Discovering that the expected source of comfort is unavailable.
These were the days
Experiencing times
When all music felt the same
When all music lacks its usual depth or meaning.
How can't you see?
Expressing disbelief
That the dreams we had are still real today
In the persistence of dreams despite the passage of time.
How can you hear?
Asking how one perceives or understands
When the summer breeze reminds you of days
A nostalgic reminder of past moments or feelings.
That aren't here today
That are no longer present in reality
And may disappear tomorrow
And might vanish in the future.
I'd like to play
Expressing a desire
Pretend that all that I see isn't there
To imagine a world devoid of observable reality.
Get carried away
To be captivated or engrossed
By the smell of trees while drinking a beer
By nature's scent while indulging in a leisurely activity.
My mind would be drained
Having a lack of mental stimulation
For no thoughts to swim in
For there to be no mental activity or engagement.
But these are the days
Experiencing periods
When all music feels the same
When all musical experiences seem monotonous or unexciting.
Oh when all music feels the same
Reiteration: A state where all music appears uniform or unvaried.
Oh when all music feels the same
Repeated emphasis on the sameness in musical perception.
Oh the same
Continued emphasis on the uniformity in musical experiences.
When all music feels
Ending abruptly, highlighting the persisting feeling of music's sameness.
