Dreams
Unraveling Life's Enigmatic Journey
Lyrics
I was lost and tossed on a misty morning by a drunken sailor
I experienced confusion and instability on a misty morning caused by a drunken sailor.
and the genie in the bottle let me down,
A metaphorical genie in the bottle disappointed or failed to fulfill expectations.
I was raised on Cain, in the name of the Father and the Mother
I grew up in a challenging environment influenced by biblical references (Cain) and family dynamics.
and the brother and the other who was never even round,
Reference to family members, including a brother who was absent or distant.
On a windswept coast with the Black Knight falling
In a desolate place, facing adversity with the Black Knight falling, suggesting a difficult situation.
I was heard to be calling that my ship and all its crew were going down,
I declared that my ship and its crew were in peril and sinking.
As the sun ran slowly by a childhood rivulet a jeweled King summoned me,
A powerful figure summoned me near a childhood stream, instructing me to inform the town.
commanding that I run and tell the town,
A command to run and convey a message to the town.
Saw you, saw me, run quickly now,
An urging to act swiftly.
Run and hide away,
Encouragement to run and hide from something or someone.
Run and hide today.
Reiteration of the need to run and hide on this day.
In a room in a castle full of faceless lovers
In a place with anonymous lovers, I suffered wounds, and my reflection seemed to condemn me.
I was cut and bleeding and the image in the mirror struck me down,
Pursued and attacked by a disciplined group of individuals, left abandoned in a metaphorical coffin.
I was chased and beaten by a well-drilled team of little men
A virgin symbolically consumes a martyr, hailed as holy by those who remained steadfast.
breathing colors and abandoned in a coffin in the ground,
A powerful figure, resembling Mona Lisa with fierce eyes, issued a proclamation, leading to my exclusion.
As a pale young virgin made a meal of a martyr
Reiteration of the need to act swiftly, as danger or trouble approaches.
she was hailed as Holy by the only ones who stood and held their ground,
Repetition of the urgency to run and hide.
When a bright Mona Lisa with the eyes of a tiger read a new proclamation
Emphasizing the transient nature of experiences that vanish quickly, akin to sunlight in the evening.
I was stricken from her list and never found,
Reflection on the mysterious and unexplainable aspects of life.
Saw you, saw me, run quickly now,
Reiteration of the transient nature of experiences, disappearing like a breath of wind.
Run and hide away,
Highlighting the enigmatic and unexplained nature of certain phenomena.
Run and hide today.
Expressing a sense of impending doom or mortality upon waking up.
Seems they come and go so quickly,
A suggestion to cherish and hold onto significant experiences or relationships.
Disappear like sunlight in the evening,
An encouragement to hold on to meaningful aspects deep within one's soul.
And they may not ever be explained.
An acknowledgment that certain valuable experiences may not occur again.
Seems like they come and go so quickly,
A vocal expression conveying emotional turmoil or distress.
Disappearin' in the air like a breath of wind,
Recognition that certain phenomena may lack logical explanations.
And they may not ever be explained,
A concluding acknowledgment that some things in life may remain unexplained.
And I woke up thinkin' I was dyin',
A contemplation of mortality or a sense of impending death.
If you find one hang on with all you got
An advisory to hold onto significant experiences with determination.
Way down deep, deep in your soul,
Encouragement to preserve meaningful elements deep within one's soul.
For it may not ever come again,
An acknowledgment that certain valuable experiences may not recur.
And I woke up crying like a baby,
Expressing intense emotional distress, akin to a baby's cry.
Hey yay yay yay
A vocal expression of distress or emotional turmoil.
No they may not ever be explained.
Final acknowledgment that some phenomena may lack logical explanations.
