Chasing Golden Moments: A Reflection on Youth and Growing Up
Lyrics
Can we take a second to breathe
Expressing a need for a pause or break to relax and collect oneself.
Haven't been smiling as much recently
Noticing a decrease in personal happiness or joy recently.
You said, "I know it's cliche but i'm scared of growing up"
Recalling a conversation about fearing the responsibilities and challenges of adulthood.
And now we're growing up look what happened to us
Reflecting on the changes and challenges that come with growing up.
I need more car rides, screaming with my head out the window
Desiring more carefree moments, possibly nostalgic car rides with excitement.
I need more dancing, get messy, bottles on the floor
Expressing a need for spontaneity, dancing, and enjoying life without worrying about the consequences.
I need to get out of the walls I wanna slam my head against
Feeling a desire to break free from confining situations and expressing frustration.
Oh raise a glass to our planet she's kinda broken
Toasting or acknowledging the challenges faced by the world.
I've become everything i never wanted
Realizing a personal transformation into something undesirable or unexpected.
We're having bad dreams but I'll call you when it's over
Experiencing unsettling dreams but finding comfort in the presence of someone special.
Let's chase all the moments that feel golden
Expressing a desire to pursue and cherish moments that are special and valuable.
I'll keep waiting for tomorrow
Patiently waiting for a better future or circumstances.
But guilt crawls in cause I'm wasting today
Feeling guilty about wasting the present moment while waiting for a better tomorrow.
I'm sitting in my house but I don't feel at home
Feeling a sense of detachment and discomfort in one's own home.
You can keep a future where my youth is gone
Rejecting a future where youthfulness is lost or compromised.
I need more touching, kissing everyone that i love
Expressing a need for more physical connections and expressions of love.
I need more street lights, late nights stumble to the door
Desiring more nightlife experiences, stumbling home late under street lights.
I need to get out of the walls I wanna slam my head against
Reiterating the desire to break free from confining walls and expressing frustration.
Oh raise a glass to our planet she's kinda broken
Acknowledging and toasting to the challenges faced by the planet.
I've become everything i never wanted
Recognizing a personal transformation into something unexpected or undesired.
We're having bad dreams but I'll call you when it's over
Experiencing unsettling dreams but finding solace in the support of someone special.
Let's chase all the moments that feel golden
Expressing a determination to pursue and cherish moments that feel precious.
Turn off the TV
Suggesting a need to disconnect from external influences and distractions.
I'd trade the chaos for memories
Expressing a willingness to trade chaos for meaningful memories.
Maybe next year we can meet
Expressing hope to meet in the future, possibly in a city setting.
I'll drive to the city
Expressing a willingness to take action, such as driving to meet someone in the city.
