Lyrics
I'm in my violet phase of life
I am currently in a phase of life characterized by a violet hue, symbolizing a particular state or mood.
Scanning the world from left to right
I am observing and analyzing the world around me, scanning from left to right.
Can't find someone I really like
I haven't found someone I genuinely like or connect with.
Since you left me hanging in the night
Since you abandoned or betrayed me in the night, leaving me hanging.
Maybe you're a fever dream
You might be an illusion or fantasy, causing confusion or uncertainty.
Making a fool out of me
You are making a fool out of me, perhaps through deceit or manipulation.
I know you got people to please
Aware that you have obligations to others, but suggesting I can broaden your perspective if you engage with me.
But I'll widen your horizons
I am willing to expand your worldview if you become closer or more intimate with me.
If you lean into me
Expressing a desire for connection by encouraging the person to lean into the relationship.
Fever dream
Reiteration of the term "fever dream" as if questioning the reality or sincerity of the connection.
(Haven't you done enough to me?)
Raising the question of whether the person has caused enough harm or difficulty.
You make my tears run like The Nile
Your actions cause my tears to flow abundantly, likened to the famous river, The Nile.
But you know I'll call you in a while
Despite the pain, I acknowledge that I will reach out to you again after some time.
It's hard when we have the same taste
Expressing difficulty when sharing similar preferences, especially when witnessing a change in the person's identity.
To watch you turn to something you ain't
Observing the person transforming into something different from their true self.
Maybe you're not real at all...
Raising the possibility that the person may not be real or authentic.
Maybe you're a fever dream
Repetition of the idea that the person might be a disorienting and confusing dream-like experience.
Making a fool out of me
The illusion or fantasy is still causing me to appear foolish or deceived.
I know you got people to please
Acknowledging the person's obligations while reiterating the potential for a broader perspective if they engage with me.
But I'll widen your horizons
Reaffirming the offer to expand the person's horizons through closer connection.
If you lean into me
Repetition of the desire for the person to lean into the relationship for mutual growth.
Fever dream
A repeated reference to the ambiguous and confusing nature of the connection, described as a "fever dream."
