Lyrics
Fantasising about the future
Fantasizing about future possibilities and scenarios.
Holding onto the front of the past
Clutching onto events or experiences from the past.
Hypnotized by the lure
Feeling captivated and drawn in by something appealing.
It pulls me in sometimes but never lasts
Although enticed, these moments of attraction are fleeting.
Somewhere in between
Existing in a state between reality and aspirations.
My reality and my dreams
The space where what's real and what's imagined coexist.
Somehow it's above them both
At times transcending both reality and dreams.
Some days, so far below
Other times feeling distant from both.
When I'm occupied
Engaged in activities, escaping the need for conscious breathing.
I don't have to think to breathe
As long as creating better experiences, breathing happens effortlessly.
As long as I'm makin' better memories
Striving to craft enduring memories.
'Cause these things last as far as I can see
Belief in the lasting impact of these created memories.
When I'm up at night
During nights, deep in thought while in bed.
And I'm sinkin' in these sheets
Sinking into the bedding, possibly feeling overwhelmed.
And thinkin' of these memories
Reflecting on past memories during these moments.
Yeah, these things last as far as I can see
Again, the belief in the enduring nature of memories.
This is how it works, this is how I learn
Describing a personal process of understanding and growth.
I've got dime to make for when I've got time to burn
Resources set aside for leisure or unoccupied moments.
I've got things to do and I've got things to see
Having goals and a desire for exploration.
Running on my own time, my imagination's mine
Independently functioning within personal creativity.
This place is not the world, the world's outside
A distinction between the immediate environment and the broader world.
When I'm occupied
Similar to line 10, occupied to the extent of unconscious breathing.
I don't have to think to breathe
Creating enduring memories as a vital aspect of existence.
As long as I'm makin' better memories
Confidence in the longevity of these memories.
'Cause these things last as far as I can see
Reiteration of the belief in lasting memories.
When I'm up at night
Similar to line 14, pondering during restless nights.
And I'm sinkin' in these sheets
Feeling deeply entrenched in thoughts, possibly distressing.
And thinkin' of these memories
Revisiting past memories during this contemplative state.
Yeah, these things last as far as I can see
Emphasizing the lasting nature of memories once again.
When I'm occupied
Similar to earlier instances, occupied without conscious breath.
I don't have to think to breathe
Continuing to generate enduring memories as a life force.
As long as I'm makin' better memories
Belief in the longevity and impact of crafted memories.
'Cause these things last as far as I can see
Repeated emphasis on the lasting nature of memories.
When I'm up at night
Reflective moments during sleepless nights.
And I'm sinkin' in these sheets
Deeply absorbed in thoughts while in bed, possibly troubled.
And thinkin' of these memories
Revisiting memories during these nocturnal reflections.
Yeah, these things last as far as I can see
Assertion of the lasting quality of memories, echoing earlier sentiments.
