Half Asleep
Journey through Time: Unveiling the Meaning of 'Half Asleep'
Lyrics
Sometimes I go whole days
Sometimes, I experience entire days.
Listening bored, half sleep
Engaged in passive listening, almost half-asleep.
I won't say anything
I choose not to express anything.
That's worth a thing to me
There's nothing of value to articulate.
One day, suddenly, time
Unexpectedly, time undergoes a significant change.
Took a turn that once felt so brief
A shift occurs in a direction that was once fleeting.
I blinked to see polite ghosts fading quickly
I blink, witnessing the departure of courteous apparitions.
What begins as an unguarded
Commencing as an open and unguarded sequence of thoughts.
Train of thoughts slowly can become
Gradually evolving into a habitual indulgence in detachment.
An addiction to the slumber
An addiction to the sleep-like state of disconnection.
Of disconnection and the resonance
Embracing the lingering echoes of memories that lack a defined form.
Of memory that no longer has a shape
Memories that persist without a tangible structure.
But keeps you numb through
Resulting in a numbing effect throughout the passing hours.
The hours till gone is another day
Continuing until the disappearance of yet another day.
Be aware, my darling
Cautioning, my beloved.
These things I say I mean
My expressions are genuine and meaningful.
Are just traces of something
Mere remnants of something I yearn to experience once more.
I long to feel again
An expression of a desire to feel certain emotions again.
I see our time expand
I perceive our shared time expanding.
In the air almost forcibly,
In the atmosphere, almost forcefully.
Spreading thinner till it dissolves completely
Dispersing gradually until it completely dissolves.
