Lyrics
When you're standing let's start at what you wanted
Reflecting on desires and intentions when in a standing position.
Do you ever really think of how it ends?
Contemplating the conclusion of a situation or relationship.
How a broken heart would mend?
Consideration of healing a broken heart.
Or how many people you would lose as friends?
Acknowledging potential loss of friendships due to heartbreak.
When you're fading in and out of being conscious
Reflection on consciousness and the attempt to reconcile.
Do you ever really try to make amends?
Questioning efforts to make amends during moments of fading consciousness.
Think of how the plays will end?
Considering the outcome of life's endeavors.
Or how you come back from the bad start?
Reflecting on overcoming a challenging start.
I know that dreams come true
Acknowledging the reality that dreams can come true.
But I never thought that I would have to leave you
Expressing the unexpected necessity to leave someone.
You, you
Repeating the realization of having to leave someone.
(That I would have to leave you)
-You, you
-(That I would have to leave you)
-I can't convince myself to keep up making nonsense
Unable to convince oneself to continue creating meaningless things.
So I'm letting go and pushing you away
Deciding to let go and distance oneself from the situation or person.
There's no reason left to stay
Recognizing that there is no valid reason to stay.
I can't afford to wait another forty days
Feeling a sense of urgency, unwilling to wait any longer.
Wasting all this time was weighing on my conscience
Acknowledging the weight of wasted time on one's conscience.
Feeling numb again, a feeling I can't shake
Experiencing emotional numbness, a sensation that is hard to shake off.
Think I'm finally awake
Feeling awakened and no longer in a state of numbness.
I'd rather do it right than make it being fake
Prefering to do things correctly rather than pretending or being insincere.
I know that dreams come true
Reiterating that dreams can come true.
But I never thought that I would have to leave you
Expressing the disbelief that leaving someone would be part of the dream.
You, you
Repeating the sentiment of having to leave someone.
(That I would have to leave you)
-You, you
-(That I would have to leave you)
-And I can never go back
Emphasizing the impossibility of returning to the way things were.
To the way that things were, to the way that things were
-And I can never go back
Reinforcing the irreversible nature of the changes.
To the way that things were, to the way that things were
-You, you
Continuing to express the realization of leaving someone.
(That I would have to leave you)
-You, you
-(That I would have to leave you)
-You, you
Repeating the acknowledgment of the necessity to leave.
(That I would have to leave you)
-You, you
-(That I would have to leave you)
-And I can never go back
Reiterating the inability to go back to how things were.
To the way that things were, to the way that things were
-And I can never go back
Emphasizing the irreversible changes in the way things were.
To the way that things were, to the way that things were
-And I can never go back
Stressing the impossibility of returning to the past state of things.
To the way that things were, to the way that things were
-And I can never go back
-To the way that things were, to the way that things were
