Lyrics

Wondering what you dream of when you sleep

Curiosity about the content of the dreams during sleep

Making promises you'll know you'll never keep

Not keeping promises knowingly

Act like your bed feels so goddamn lonely

Pretending that the bed feels extremely lonely

While I lie here

Speaker lies in contrast to the mentioned loneliness

In this lie here

Reiteration of the speaker lying in the current situation

In a daydream

Being lost in a daydream

Buried face deep

Immersed deeply in the daydream

Show your heart and smile

Encouragement to reveal genuine emotions and smile

As you dance on wires

Encouragement to express oneself while navigating challenges

When you can't sleep, feeling nothing

Experiencing emotional numbness when unable to sleep

Well I'll sit here in denial

The speaker denies reality while observing the other dancing on wires

As you dance on wires

The speaker also dances on wires metaphorically

Wondering if you'll ever take that leap

Contemplation about taking risks or making significant decisions

Feel tomorrow as you sink into the sea

Anticipation of the future with a sense of sinking into uncertainty

Lost in your Kind Eyes staring back at me

Being captivated by the attractive eyes of someone special

I wanna stay here, just stay here

Desire to remain in the current dreamlike state

In a daydream

Continuation of being lost in a daydream

Buried face deep

Deep immersion in the daydream persists

Show your heart and smile

Encouragement to display genuine emotions and smile, reiterated

As you dance on wires

Encouragement to express oneself while facing challenges, reiterated

When you can't sleep, feeling nothing

Experiencing emotional numbness when unable to sleep, reiterated

Well I'll sit here in denial

The speaker remains in denial while the other dances on wires

As I dance on wires

The speaker also dances on wires metaphorically, acknowledging it

And even still I know

Acknowledging awareness despite uncertainties in the situation

Every day I feel a little bit too close

Feeling a gradual closeness or intimacy each day

Take a step back into the afterglow

Stepping back into a positive state or memories

Where I feel like I'm falling slow

Feeling a gradual descent into a slow-paced emotional fall

Falling slow

Continuation of the emotional descent, falling slowly
