Running Like a River
Flowing Through Life's Currents: Telekinesis' 'Running Like a River' Meaning
Lyrics
Oh my mind is running like a river
Expressing a state of constant and fast thoughts, likened to the flow of a river.
And I don't mind
Indicating a lack of concern or objection to the rapid flow of thoughts.
The sun is getting dimmer
Describing the diminishing brightness of the sun, possibly symbolizing challenges or difficulties.
But I know we keep on spinning like a broken top
Suggesting resilience despite challenges, using the metaphor of a broken top that keeps spinning.
Pretty soon my hair starts getting thinner
Anticipating the physical effects of aging, such as thinning hair.
And all my bones start feeling very brittle
Portraying a sense of physical fragility as bones start feeling brittle.
But I don't notice any chances
Not acknowledging or recognizing opportunities for change or improvement.
No nothing at all
Emphasizing a lack of awareness or perception of any changes.
And oh my love
Addressing a romantic partner, reflecting on the amusing and connecting nature of eye contact.
It's funny how our eyes meet in a direct line
Highlighting the direct and meaningful connection made through eye contact.
Let's find some time now
Suggesting the importance of finding time together and building a life.
And build our home
Encouraging the idea of creating a home and a life together.
On acres of that olden time
Imagining building a life on the foundation of nostalgic or cherished memories (olden time).
Oh my mind is running like a river
Repeating the analogy of the mind running like a river, emphasizing continuity.
And I don't mind
Reiterating a lack of objection to the constant flow of thoughts.
The sun is getting dimmer
Restating the diminishing sun, reinforcing the idea of facing challenges.
But I know we keep on spinning like a broken top
Affirming resilience and persistence despite challenges, using the broken top metaphor.
