Brand New
Waking to Renewal: Navigating Time, Memories, and Self-Discovery
Lyrics
I fear I'm losing time
I'm concerned about running out of time.
I find myself in places, not sure how I arrived
I often find myself in situations without realizing how I got there.
It's safer standing still
Staying in one place feels safer than adapting to the changing world.
As the world moves on around me, watch it pass before my eyes
Observing life passing by, feeling detached from the ongoing events.
Oh is this all a dream
Questioning the reality of the current situation, wondering if it's a dream.
I can't remember half the words to songs I used to sing
Experiencing memory loss, forgetting lyrics to songs from the past.
Can this be undone
Expressing a desire to undo or reverse certain experiences.
Why are my sharpest memories from way back when I was young
Reflecting on vivid memories from childhood or youth.
So hold me close my darling
Seeking emotional closeness and comfort from a loved one.
I need something to tether me here
Desiring something to anchor oneself to the present moment.
I feel my edges fading
Feeling a sense of disintegration or losing one's identity.
I've been fighting sleep so long I finally shut my eyes
Battling against sleep, possibly avoiding confronting inner thoughts.
And I woke up brand new
Experiencing a transformative moment, waking up with a new perspective.
So we keep holding on
Continuing to hold on despite uncertainties and challenges.
Waiting for an answer that we never thought would come
Waiting for answers that may never come, dealing with uncertainty.
I'm losing what's been said
Forgetting or losing the essence of what has been communicated.
The same words keep repeating on a loop inside my head
Repetitive thoughts echoing in the mind, possibly causing confusion.
But I still have my doubts
Harboring uncertainties or skepticism about the future.
Maybe this time next year I'll have this all figured out
Anticipating that clarity might come in the future.
I'm wondering what to feel
Conflicted emotions and difficulty in maintaining focus.
But it's hard to keep in focus when I'm drifting at the wheel
Struggling to concentrate while navigating through life.
So hold me close my darling
Seeking emotional connection and grounding from a loved one.
I need something to tether me here
Desiring something to anchor oneself to the present moment (repeated).
I feel my edges fading
Feeling a sense of disintegration or losing one's identity (repeated).
I've been fighting sleep so long I finally shut my eyes
Battling against sleep, possibly avoiding confronting inner thoughts (repeated).
And I woke up brand new
Experiencing a transformative moment, waking up with a new perspective (repeated).
Won't you please stay near
Requesting emotional closeness and reassurance from a loved one.
I need you to be near
Expressing a need for someone's presence and support.
Cause I might disappear
Fearing the possibility of disappearing or losing oneself.
If I was ever here
Questioning one's existence and impact on the world.
And I woke up brand new
Reiterating the experience of waking up with a new perspective.
And I woke up brand new
Emphasizing the transformative nature of the waking experience (repeated).
