Impossible
Journey Through Twilight: Unraveling The Clientele's Enigmatic 'Impossible' Meaning
Lyrics
There's a place that we can go
There's a specific location available for us to visit.
At the end of a long slow day
At the conclusion of a slow, extended day.
Streetlamps fuse the rising night
Streetlights blend with the emerging darkness of the night.
I feel so far away
I feel emotionally distant or removed.
When you came back late, from the garden
When you returned late from the garden,
I couldn't turn my eyes
I couldn't divert my gaze.
And I was dead
I was emotionally numb or detached.
Outside in the crowded pines
Outside, among the crowded trees,
Ships are sailing though the wood
Ships metaphorically sail through the woods, a scenario deemed impossible.
Impossible
Emphasizing the sense of impossibility.
Leaving in the space between
Departure occurs within the space between familiar places.
The Hovis homes, the railway heath
Reference to specific locations ('Hovis homes' and 'railway heath') within this impossible scenario.
Impossible
Reiterating the notion of impossibility.
I can see my freedom but I need a little time
I can envision my freedom but require some time.
Your hair wet and your arms full
You, with wet hair and arms laden,
You were dead, you were alive
You were simultaneously lifeless and full of life.
Looking in the heart of light
Searching deep within the core of brightness.
Looking into the silence
Gazing into silence or tranquility.
From those nights so frigid
Referring to nights so cold they seemed almost unreal.
They seemed hardly real
Through the diminishing light across the plain,
Through the last light on the plain
A reference to "Roland to the Dark Tower Came," potentially alluding to a literary work by Browning or King.
Roland to the dark tower came
