Weird Year
Navigating a Weird Year: Digital Escapes and Internet Waves by Saint Djuni
Lyrics
Today's the day the world stopped
Reflecting on a significant moment when the world came to a standstill.
Keep looking at my watch
Expressing a preoccupation with time, possibly waiting for something.
I don't really need this clock now
No longer relying on the clock, indicating a shift in perspective or priorities.
Since all my calls dropped
Noticing a lack of communication as calls are dropping, suggesting a sense of isolation.
Stand in the corner
Choosing to stand apart, possibly metaphorically distancing from a situation.
Wait 'til it's over
Waiting for a challenging situation to end.
And the time keeps on slipping away
Time passing quickly, perhaps feeling a loss of control.
Go stand in the corner
Repeating the act of standing in a corner, reinforcing a sense of separation.
Feeling like a loner
Feeling isolated, possibly in a social context.
But my mind is the sweetest escape
Finding solace and escape in one's own thoughts.
Oh oh oh oh
An exclamation, expressing a desire or emotion.
I wanna go
Expressing a desire to leave or escape from the current situation.
Catching big waves
Metaphorically riding the ups and downs of life.
Surfing on the internet
Engaging with the digital world, possibly seeking distraction.
Making big plays
Ambitious endeavors, possibly in the virtual realm.
Spinning on an old cassette
Nostalgic reference to older technology, suggesting a blend of past and present.
It's been a weird weird year
Acknowledging the strangeness or difficulty of the past year.
But I'm still here
Despite challenges, affirming personal resilience and persistence.
Talking to me friends through the atmosphere
Maintaining connections with friends, possibly through virtual means.
Making big waves
Continuing to face challenges, specifically in the digital space.
But only on the internet
Emphasizing that achievements are primarily in the virtual realm.
I don't have good excuses
Acknowledging a lack of valid reasons or excuses.
Sorry I missed your call
Expressing regret for missing a call and the challenges of maintaining connections.
I know, you know I love you
Affirming love despite difficulties in expressing it.
But it's hard to care at all
Admitting a struggle to care amidst challenges.
Stand in the corner
Repetition of standing in the corner, reinforcing a sense of helplessness or isolation.
Wait 'til it's over
Waiting for a challenging situation to pass.
And the time keeps on slipping away
Highlighting the fleeting nature of time.
Go stand in the corner
Reiterating the act of standing in a corner, emphasizing loneliness.
Feeling like a loner
Feeling alone and isolated.
But my mind is the sweetest escape
Finding mental escape from the challenges.
Oh oh oh oh
Repeating an exclamation, possibly indicating a strong emotional desire.
I wanna go
Expressing a persistent desire to leave or escape.
Catching big waves
Continuing the metaphor of navigating life's challenges.
Surfing on the internet
Engaging with the digital world, specifically the internet.
Making big plays
Pursuing significant achievements, possibly virtually.
Spinning on an old cassette
Indulging in nostalgia, perhaps finding comfort in the past.
It's been a weird weird year
Reiterating the unusual or challenging nature of the past year.
But I'm still here
Affirming personal resilience and endurance despite difficulties.
Talking to me friends through the atmosphere
Maintaining social connections, possibly through unconventional means.
Making big waves
Continuing to face challenges, primarily in the digital space.
But only on the internet
Emphasizing that achievements are limited to the virtual realm.
