About the Movies
Cinematic Revelations: Life's Dance Through 'About the Movies'
Lyrics
Figured it out before I'm a teen, humming along the washing machine
Realizing something important at a young age, finding comfort in mundane activities
Run away, run away scream
Feeling the urge to escape or express emotions strongly
Making some faces I made a scene, no one around to see how green
Acting out without an audience to witness
I saddle my thoughts for the big machine
Organizing thoughts to fit into societal norms or expectations
That is why that's the way we watch the movies
Connecting the way movies are watched to a certain behavior or mindset
In some silly way life begins to change
Change in perspective or understanding in a whimsical manner
In some silly way life begins to change for you
Life altering in an unconventional or lighthearted way
That's the way we watch the movies
Reiterating the association of life with movie-watching habits
You're old enough
Reassurance of being mature enough for a particular experience
Life begins to change
Continuation of life's transformative nature
Lift up my fork and celebrate ease
Taking a moment to enjoy simple pleasures or successes
Liquid enough, liquid it seems
Emphasizing the fluidity or adaptability of circumstances
Walking on pillows I learn how to sleep
Learning to find comfort in unfamiliar or soft situations
Somehow I feel what flies seem to breathe
Sensing an understanding of natural or small entities
Run away, run away dream
Desire to escape into a dreamlike state
I like all the flights on the big machine
Enjoying experiences facilitated by modern technology or progress
That is why that's the way we watch the movies
Relating back to the similarity between movie-watching and life
In some silly way life begins to change
Reiterating the theme of life's transformative nature
That's the way we watch the movies
Connecting the viewing of movies to life's changes for oneself
In some silly way life begins to change for you
Highlighting life's whimsical and transformative nature for an individual
You're old enough
Confirming readiness for an experience or change
Life begins to break
Suggesting the start of a breakdown or transformation in life
Come on out. I've got a secret
Inviting someone to share a personal revelation or experience
Time will let you in
Assuring that time will eventually reveal truths or experiences
And if you want you can have a secret
Offering a personal revelation if desired, and time will reveal its truth
Time will let you through
Similar to line 47, encouraging someone to trust time for revelations
Come on out
Reiterating an invitation for someone to come and witness something important
You've gotta see it
Encouraging someone to witness something significant
Time to let you in
Reiterating the trust in time to reveal experiences or truths
And if you want you can ride with me
Offering companionship or support in facing experiences together
If the wind is right the wind is free
Success or ease is dependent on favorable conditions
I knew it then
Understanding something in the past with certainty
I knew it well
Deep understanding or familiarity with a situation
Like a pilot diving down wishing well,
Wishing for something while acknowledging a tradition or superstition
I know it's better when the weather changes your hair
Recognizing the positive impact of changing circumstances
Fifteen paces a mile an hour, it's gotta feel good
Enjoying the slow pace or savoring moments
Sucking a slurpee for ultimate power, it's gotta feel good
Finding joy or satisfaction in simple pleasures
Fighting, you're back when you feel like a coward
Overcoming internal struggles despite feeling inadequate
It's gotta feel good
Finding satisfaction or empowerment in one's actions
And everything's moving at the ultimate speed
Everything aligning perfectly or feeling harmonious
Believe it
Encouraging belief in a positive outcome or situation
That's the way we watch the movies
Reiterating the connection between life and watching movies
You're older nowIn some silly way life begins to change
Confirming the maturation process and its impact on change
