Moments Unraveled: Navigating Life's Flux with The Cabinet and Tim Neuhaus
Lyrics
In a flash I saw the way things turn
In a sudden moment, I perceived the way situations unfold.
I know it can be all around
I acknowledge that it can happen in various ways.
Bounce & go by
Action and events quickly pass by.
But I am doing too good
I am currently doing well.
But I am doing so good
I am thriving and succeeding.
Drifting away in my mind
I am mentally drifting away.
And sometimes I see the way things move
Occasionally, I observe the flow of events.
Just in half speed and I find myself
It appears as if things are moving at half their normal speed, and I lose track of time.
Out of time
I find myself out of sync with time.
And again I forget
I forget once again.
Once again I forget
I repeat the cycle of forgetting.
Could you repeat the last line
A request to repeat the last statement, suggesting a struggle with memory.
The greed it needs to go slow
Greed or desire should be pursued slowly.
At least it's not leaving its home
At least it's not abandoning its origin or roots.
Seconds later
After a short time has passed.
Out of nowhere
Suddenly, from an unexpected place.
I belong to something
I have a sense of belonging to something.
Though my harbor
Even though my haven or refuge.
Without anchor's
Without stability or support.
Drifting on and on and
Continuously drifting without a fixed point.
If you have a hint how I can learn to store some more
Seeking advice on how to retain more information.
Please look right into my eyes
A plea to be looked in the eyes for guidance.
Let all the words subside
Encouragement to let all the spoken words settle.
Let all the words subside
A repetition of the plea to let words subside.
If we may be tongued-tied
Suggesting a state of being unable to speak freely.
So many times I've said hello I've said goodbye
Reflecting on the frequent cycles of greetings and farewells.
And never know the start or when it would end
Uncertainty about the beginning and end of these interactions.
I am caught in this gap
Feeling trapped in an undefined space.
I am caught in this gap
Reiterating the sense of being caught in a gap.
But there is no regret
Despite the situation, there is no remorse or sorrow.
The seeds we reap they grow old
The results of our actions age over time.
At least their heart's on the go
At least their essence remains active and alive.
