Power Lines
Journey of Broken Dreams: Power Lines by Telekinesis
Lyrics
First time I looked straight into her eyes
Expresses the moment of first intense connection with someone.
I saw the future, I saw bluer skies
Seeing a positive and hopeful future in that person's presence.
oh oh oh oh oh
Repetition for emphasis or as a vocal expression without specific meaning.
Even when I'm lonely I am always surprised all
Even when feeling alone, there's a continual sense of surprise due to the partner's support.
of the ways you told me to keep my eye on the prize
Advises to stay focused on achieving goals, possibly coming from the partner.
You and your photographic memory
Highlighting someone's exceptional memory skills as a unique trait.
You and your photographic memory
-I'm a broken man,I'm damaged goods
Self-perception of being emotionally damaged and flawed.
Lock me in the basement with furnace soot
Metaphorically feeling imprisoned in a damaged state.
You came along in your party dress
A contrasting image of someone lively entering the scene.
I climbed a mountain under house arrest
Overcoming obstacles or restrictions for the sake of the relationship.
When we were kids I swear we were power lines
Comparison of themselves in the past to powerful electric lines, perhaps symbolizing energy or connection.
Out on some journey searching for some better minds
Reflecting on youthful aspirations for improvement and growth.
You cant cut it out, no you cant keep it out of line
It's impossible to exclude or prevent something from being aligned or in sync.
Looking for the pavement
Suggests seeking stability or a solid foundation in uncertain circumstances.
Looking like were running out of time
Feeling pressured by limited time or an impending deadline.
And I am yours and you are mine
Expresses a deep connection between two individuals.
Batten down the hatches and man the sails
Preparing for challenges ahead, remaining vigilant and ready.
The war isn't over, its not even tipped the scales
Emphasizing that a conflict or struggle isn't yet resolved or in a balanced state.
Run down the tracks like a bat out of hell
Running or moving swiftly, possibly to escape or accomplish something urgently.
Don't muss up your hair because were destined to fail
Advising to maintain appearances despite inevitable failure.
When I was young I thought I was a power line
Revisiting a past self-perception of being influential or powerful.
When I was young I was searching for some better time
Longing or seeking a more positive and fulfilling period from the past.
