Lyrics
I'm coming out to play
I'm expressing a readiness to engage or socialize
So will you meet me by the shifting of the light
Asking if you'll join me in a location where light is changing, possibly outdoors
On the trees and the invention of no purpose between us
Noting the lack of defined purpose between us, emphasizing an abstract connection
I know it's far-fetched
Acknowledging that the idea may seem unlikely or unrealistic
And time has probably erased me from your memory
Recognizing the impact of time on our connection
With your busy life, your job, your wife, your kids, and you don't play anymore
Highlighting the busyness of life and the potential neglect of playfulness
We are in a bar
Describing a setting in a bar, possibly the current location
And in my mind, I see the men dragging boats
Imagining scenes of men moving boats to the sea, creating a mental landscape
Out to the sea from the beach
Continuing the mental imagery of boats being taken to the sea from the beach
And if I was a junkie
Contemplating a hypothetical situation of drug use
I would say warm the spoon
Using drug-related imagery to express a desire to stay in the current situation
'Cause I really don't want to leave this room again
Expressing a reluctance to leave the present environment
But if you do remember
Addressing the possibility of the listener remembering and requesting a meeting
Please meet me on the corner, out by the lake tonight
Suggesting a specific meeting place near a lake and a streetlamp
You know where the streetlamp turns to silver columns, like a palace in the abyss
Describing the meeting place with vivid imagery
Can you still do the dance on the reflection of the hall
Asking if a certain dance move can still be performed in a reflective surface
To the beat of the changing traffic light, shall we race it under the bridge once more
Proposing a race under a bridge, invoking a sense of nostalgia
We are in a bar
Repeating the setting in a bar, emphasizing its significance
And in my mind, I see the men dragging boats
Revisiting the mental image of men moving boats to the sea
Out to the sea from the beach
Reiterating the imagery of boats being taken to the sea from the beach
And if I was a junkie
Continuing the contemplation of a hypothetical drug-related scenario
I would say warm the spoon
Using drug-related imagery to express a desire to stay in the current situation
'Cause I really don't want to leave this room again
Expressing a reluctance to leave the present environment
Come on friend
Encouraging a friend to join for a meeting
It's time to meet up before we both forget
Highlighting the importance of meeting before memories fade
Who we were and we only remember who we are
Reflecting on identity and the journey that has brought us to the present
And what has made us come this far
Considering the factors that have contributed to our current state
One more time before the sun burns away our personalities
Emphasizing the urgency of meeting before external factors alter us
We are gathered between coincidence
Describing a gathering between chance and coping mechanisms
And it's our only way to cope before the blazing of the light
Highlighting coping mechanisms before confronting challenges
We are in a bar
Reiterating the setting in a bar, emphasizing its significance
And in my mind, I see the men dragging boats
Revisiting the mental image of men moving boats to the sea
Out to the sea from the beach
Reiterating the imagery of boats being taken to the sea from the beach
And if I was a junkie
Continuing the contemplation of a hypothetical drug-related scenario
I would say warm the spoon
Using drug-related imagery to express a desire to stay in the current situation
'Cause I really don't want to leave this room again
Expressing a reluctance to leave the present environment
