Animated
Animated Reflections: Confronting Demons in a Dream
Lyrics
So animated
Feeling lively and expressive
My life templated
My life follows a set pattern or template
So print me in this dream
Make a copy of me in this dream-like state
I won't wake up yeah, yeah, yeah
I choose not to wake up from this dream
In my dark story
Describing a dark part of the narrator's life or story
Ooh, I'm ignoring
Choosing to ignore something pleasant within this darkness
The pleasure in the pain yeah, yeah
Finding pleasure in pain
Life's never this good, yeah
Life doesn’t usually feel this positive
Reaper waiting on his queue, yeah
A representation of death waiting, perhaps a metaphorical 'Reaper'
Why's always looking gloomier
Why everything appears darker or more negative
Fuck if I know I am done
Expressing uncertainty or confusion about a situation
Fuck if I know I am done
Reiteration of uncertainty or confusion
I'm fighting my demons and I can't really see them
Facing personal struggles without clear visibility
But I know that they're there because I feel them all around
Sensing the presence of inner struggles
I'm feeling animated and it's not real life
Feeling animated or lively, though not in reality
Pump my heart with adenosine to realize
Stimulating the heart artificially to awaken or become aware
I'm like oh no no no
Repeated feeling of uncertainty or confusion
I'm like oh no no no
-Life's never this good, yeah
Similar sentiment to line 10, life feeling unusually good
Reaper waiting on his queue, yeah
Referencing the waiting aspect of death again
And it's always looking gloomier
Continued perception of a darker, gloomier outlook
Fuck if I know I am done
Reiteration of uncertainty or confusion
Fuck if I know I am done
-Fuck if I know I am done
-I don't feel at peace in my skin
Feeling uncomfortable or ill at ease in one's own skin
I don't feel at peace in my skin
Repetition of discomfort within oneself
I want some peace in my skin
Desire for tranquility or calm within oneself
I want some peace in my skin
Reiteration of the desire for peace within oneself
Fuck if I know I am done
Reiteration of uncertainty or confusion
