Lyrics
The innocence of sleeping children
The purity and simplicity of sleeping children
Dressed in white and slowly dreaming
Adorned in white and peacefully dreaming
Stops all time
Brings a halt to time
I slow my steps and start to blur
I slow my pace and lose focus
So many years have filled my heart
Many years have filled my heart
I never thought I'd say those words
Expressions of surprise that I never expected to utter
Further we go
Emphasizes the theme of growing older, gaining knowledge, and revealing less about oneself
And older we grow
-The more we know
-The less we show
-Further we go
-And older we grow
-The more we know
-The less we show
-The very first time I saw your face
Initial encounter, seeing the person's face
I thought of a song and quickly changed the tune
Changed thoughts and emotions like adjusting a musical tune
The very first time I touched your skin
First touch, evoking a narrative with a rush to an untimely conclusion
I thought of a story and rushed to reach the end too soon
Seeking closure prematurely
Oh, remember
An appeal to remember
Oh, please don't change
A plea for the person not to change
And so the fall came, thirteen years
Refers to the passage of thirteen years, a significant time marked by a ring
A shiny ring, and how I could forget your name
A reminiscence of forgetting the person's name
The air no longer in my throat
The absence of air in the throat, suggesting speechlessness
Another perfect lie is choked
A deception, a perfect lie, stifled or suppressed
But it always feels the same
Despite changes, the emotional impact remains consistent
So they, close together
People staying close, adorned in vibrant colors
Dressed in red and yellow
Symbolizing innocence, dressed in red and yellow
Innocent forever
Emphasizes perpetual innocence
Sleeping children, in their blue soft rooms
Children sleeping peacefully in their comforting, blue rooms
Still dream
Despite age, they continue to dream
Further we go
Reiterates the theme of aging, gaining knowledge, and revealing less about oneself
And older we grow
-The more we know
-The less we show
-Further we go
-And older we grow
-The more we know
-The less we show
