Waiting
Yearning in Silence: Sleep Station's Poetic Journey of Longing
Lyrics
This way it goes
This reflects the direction or course of events.
Twisted and turned that way
Life is complex and full of unexpected turns.
I have your home
The singer possesses or identifies with a sense of belonging.
Keep it inside this way everyday I rise
The singer keeps emotions or struggles hidden within, facing them daily upon waking.
I had hoped to have you home
Expressing a desire for the presence of a loved one at home.
But instead I live all alone
Contrast between the desired companionship and the current state of living alone.
Counting on dreams that never came
Dependence on unrealized dreams, possibly leading to disappointment.
So I will sleep again today
The singer resorts to sleep as an escape or coping mechanism.
Time never comes
Time is elusive or unfulfilling, suggesting a sense of stagnation.
It is I would pass through blind
Facing life without a clear understanding, possibly feeling lost.
Into the wind
Moving forward without clear direction, facing uncertainties.
Where you lift me up again
Seeking solace or support from someone significant during challenging times.
I had hoped to have you home
Reiteration of the desire for a loved one's presence at home.
But instead I live all alone
Emphasizes the loneliness experienced in the absence of the loved one.
Counting on your face to arrive
Relying on the anticipation of seeing a familiar face.
Hoping you'd make it home alive
Expressing concern for the well-being and safe return of the loved one.
Evening changes
Highlighting a shift in atmosphere, possibly indicating a change in emotions.
Voices so strange inside our home
Strange voices disrupt the comfort of the home, creating unease.
I have stayed inside all alone
Choosing isolation, possibly as a response to the unsettling voices.
Time has never felt this long
The passage of time feels prolonged, contributing to a sense of longing.
But it doesn't mean you're gone
Despite the time, the absence of a loved one doesn't necessarily mean they are forgotten.
Waiting here for you to arrive
Eagerly anticipating the return of the loved one, actively waiting.
I had hoped to have you home
Reiteration of the longing for the loved one's presence at home.
But instead I live all alone
Continued experience of solitude and dependence on unfulfilled dreams.
Counting on dreams that never came
Emphasizes the reliance on dreams that remain unfulfilled, contributing to a repetitive cycle.
So I will sleep again today
Resorting to sleep as a means of escaping the harsh reality once again.
