Obscurum
Yearning for Tomorrow's Light
Lyrics
3. Obscurum
Obscurum
borrow some time
Borrowing time, perhaps delaying or extending a moment
from tomorrow's night
Anticipation of the night that follows the present day
so I lay down
Lying down, possibly in contemplation or reflection
waiting for the moon to come
Waiting for the moon, symbolizing a longing or expectation
every day I'm running late
Consistently running behind schedule
to whatever state
Indifferent or uncertain about the upcoming situation
I am to face
Preparing to confront a challenge or reality
have we dreamed of this day
Possibly questioning if the current situation was once a dream
wish I knew
Expressing a desire for prior knowledge or insight
before I became
Reflecting on the transformation into one's current self
myself
A self-aware acknowledgment of one's identity
running in circles
Engaging in repetitive and seemingly aimless activities
searching for reversal
Searching for a way to reverse or undo certain aspects
so I'm lying down
Repeating the act of lying down, awaiting the moon's presence
waiting for the moon to shine
Continuing the expectation for the moon to illuminate
every day I'm running late
Consistent tardiness in daily activities
to whatever state
Approaching an uncertain state or situation
I am to face
Facing the reality or challenge that lies ahead
have we dreamed of this day
Reiterating the theme of questioning the dreamed-of day
wish I knew
Expressing a desire for prior knowledge or insight (repeated)
before I became
Reflecting on the transformation into one's current self (repeated)
myself
A self-aware acknowledgment of one's identity (repeated)
