Escape to Nostalgia: Saint Sleep's Journey Through Time and Innocence
Lyrics
They all think they know me but they really don't
People believe they understand me, but their perception of me is inaccurate.
They all think they know me but they really don't
This misconception about me is reiterated.
I've been running since I was like seven years old
I've been on the move since a very young age.
Since a kid I knew that I was lonely
Even as a child, I sensed a sense of isolation or being alone.
Hold me and sing me lullabies until I'm sleepy
I seek comfort and care, wanting to be reassured and sung to until I fall asleep.
They all think they know me but they really don't
Reiteration of the misunderstanding people have about me.
I've been running since I was like seven years old
Emphasizing the duration of my life spent running or escaping.
Since a kid I knew that I was lonely
Reiterating a childhood realization of feeling lonely.
Hold me and sing me lullabies until I'm sleepy
A repetition of the desire for comfort through lullabies.
I been away and I don't wanna come back
I've been absent and reluctant to return.
Toys on the floor and they strung out
Toys scattered around, indicating chaos or neglect.
Stuffed bears surround my vicinity
Surrounded by stuffed bears, perhaps seeking a sense of security.
Themed hats on a coat rack oh how did I not miss this
Noticing familiar objects, possibly nostalgic.
Always been tryna recapture my innocence
Always trying to reclaim my lost innocence.
Feel like a kid again isn't it funny that this is the best I done felt
Feeling youthful again, despite the circumstances being unconventional.
2007 I'm getting obsessed with my fantasies
A fixation on fantasies starting around 2007.
Sad to see everyone leaving
Feeling sorrowful witnessing others depart.
Can't connect like these lego pieces
Struggling to establish connections akin to Lego pieces.
Seasons pass and I'm still on my PSP
Time passing, yet I'm still engrossed in my childhood entertainment (PSP).
Wii sports in the background this is my happy place
A comforting scenario with Wii sports in the background.
This where I go on my darker days
This place serves as an escape during difficult times.
This where I go when I run away
A place where I flee when overwhelmed.
But I get stuck in this modern place
Feeling trapped in the modern world despite seeking escape.
Get stuck in this grown-up body with its grown-up problems
Struggling with adulthood and its associated problems.
Finally regressing
Finally regressing back to a childlike state.
Curse and blessing
Recognizing the mixed nature of the situation, both a curse and a blessing.
Lay down in my bed
Feeling distressed while lying in bed.
Head is distressing
Experiencing mental distress or discomfort.
This what I wanted
Realizing that this situation was what I desired, but it's haunting.
I'm haunted by trauma no options impossible physics of time that I'm locked in
Haunted by traumatic experiences, feeling constrained by time.
Often wish I had one last chance as a seven year old
Wishing for one last chance to be a child again.
They all think they know me but they really don't
Reiteration of the misunderstanding people have about me.
I've been running since I was like seven years old
Emphasizing the duration of my life spent running or escaping.
Since a kid I knew that I was lonely
Reiterating a childhood realization of feeling lonely.
Hold me and sing me lullabies until I'm sleepy
A repeated desire for comfort through lullabies.
They all think they know me but they really don't
Reiteration of the misunderstanding people have about me.
I've been running since I was like seven years old
Emphasizing the duration of my life spent running or escaping.
Since a kid I knew that I was lonely
Reiterating a childhood realization of feeling lonely.
Hold me and sing me lullabies until I'm sleepy
A repeated desire for comfort through lullabies.
