The New Thing
Embracing the Essence of Time: The Bouncing Souls' JourneyLyrics
There was a time we had so little
Reflecting on a time of scarcity or simplicity.
But we thought it was so much
Despite having little, there was a perception of abundance.
There was a time we had no control
Recalling a period of lack of control.
And we lost all touch
Loss of connection or understanding during that time.
So much emotion, so many days passed
Emotional intensity and the passage of time.
So many things we thought would last
Expectations for lasting things that eventually faded.
And everything it seemed so big
Perceived significance of everything during that period.
So much invested in the past
Heavy emotional investment in the past.
Well we're still dreaming
Persistence in dreaming and believing.
Still believing
Continued belief despite challenges.
No longer looking for the new thing
Not actively seeking something new anymore.
No longer looking for the new thing
Reiteration of not seeking novelty.
Sometimes we look but its hard to see
Difficulty in perceiving the present.
Lost inside a memory
Being lost in a nostalgic memory.
Thinking of all the good times gone by
Reminiscing about good times in the past.
But that was yesterday's high
Recognition that those good times are now in the past.
Well we're still dreaming
Perseverance in dreaming and believing.
Still believing
Continued belief despite challenges.
No longer looking for the new thing
Not actively seeking something new anymore.
No longer looking for the new thing
Reiteration of not seeking novelty.
Wasted too much time
Regret for spending excessive time pursuing unrealistic goals.
Chasing dragons in our dreams
Metaphorical pursuit of unattainable dreams.
Funny how hard it was to see
Realization of the simplicity of life.
Life's not so complicated
Life is less complicated than perceived.
So complicated as it seems
Acknowledging life's simplicity.
There was a time we had so little
Recalling a time of scarcity or simplicity.
And a little was enough
Having little was sufficient during that time.
It took some time but now we see
Realization that everything needed is within.
Everything's inside of us
Internalization of the essential aspects of life.
Well we're still dreaming
Perseverance in dreaming and believing.
Still believing
Continued belief despite challenges.
No longer looking for the new thing
Not actively seeking something new anymore.
No longer looking for the new thing
Reiteration of not seeking novelty.
