Notions
Eternal Notions: Navigating Life's Twists Through Memories
Lyrics
I got a never ending notion
I have a persistent feeling or belief
That everything would work out in the end
Optimistic expectation that everything will eventually be resolved positively
That it's all meant to be
Belief that everything happens for a reason
Never ending feeling
Endless emotion or sensation
I could have been so much more than just what I am
Regret about not reaching full potential
Just a mess of memories
A chaotic collection of memories
Like back in high school
Reflection on high school experiences
I think I'm there again
Feeling like back in high school
Hanging out in Sadie's room
Recalling moments in Sadie's room
Wishing we could be much more than friends
Desire for a deeper connection than friendship
You used to drive it like you stole it
Recollection of reckless driving in the past
In your daddy's car, cranking maiden, deucing a cigarette
Driving father's car, listening to music, smoking
Like we had something to prove
A sense of proving something in the past
Hearts filled with worries
Hearts filled with worries in the past
The little woes that now just seem like a luxury
Past troubles now seem trivial
Come back to me
Yearning for the past
Way back in high school
Reflecting on high school days
When you cried about your life
Recalling emotional moments in the past
We were sitting on your bedside
Sitting on a bedside, wishing for more
Wishing we could be much more than friends
Desire for a deeper connection with someone
And we saw the way we were
Awareness of past and present selves
Now we see the way we are
Navigating life's challenges in the present
Navigate this world lost in the dark
Feeling lost in the current world
So many years have gone by
Reflecting on the passage of time
In whir and blur I'm broke and I'm bored, nothing turns out right
Current state of feeling broken and bored
Here we're both in the same boat
Shared struggles with someone
We're lying on our resumes
Falsifying information on resumes
We're lying through our teeth about how much money we've made
Lying about financial success
Still stuck on memories
Stuck in the past, unable to move on
Like after high school
Revisiting memories after high school
Downtown on Friday night
Recalling Friday nights downtown
Perched upon a bar stool
Sitting on a bar stool, reflecting
Slamming shots, toasting to good friends
Drinking and toasting to good friends
Hanging out with Sadie
Spending time with Sadie, wanting more
So much more than friends
Desire for a deeper connection, but limited to friendship
Never more than friends
Never progressing beyond friendship
So much more than friends
Acknowledging a connection beyond friendship
