Mason Dixon
Chasing Stars: A Journey Across Mason Dixon Line
Lyrics
I'll take you picture and hold it in my mind
I'll take your picture and hold it in my mind
Take another and have you all the time
Take another picture to have a constant reminder of you
And as I'm leaving the distance magnifies
Leaving increases the emotional distance, making it more significant
Close my eyes and find you inside
When closing my eyes, I can still visualize and feel your presence
I'm way up downtown
Being in a high or elevated place in the city center
Superstitious
Feeling superstitious, suggesting a sense of uncertainty or irrational beliefs
Mason dixon line
Reference to the Mason-Dixon Line, a symbolic division between North and South in the U.S.
like rain on the windshield
Comparing the experience to rain on a windshield, possibly obstacles or challenges
I'm moving through the night
Traveling through the night
Roaming the time zones
Moving across different time zones
Filmed in black and white
Imagery of being filmed in black and white, reminiscent of classic movies
You're here in my headphones
Your presence is like music playing in the headphones, a constant companion
Each and every mile
Every mile traveled reinforces the connection
Falling asleep with the lights on all night
Falling asleep with the lights on, possibly suggesting difficulty in finding peace or closure
"I'm way up downtown"
Reiteration of being in a high or elevated place in the city center
Superstitious
Continued feeling of superstition
Mason dixon line
Reiteration of the symbolic Mason-Dixon Line
"I'm way up downtown"
Reiteration of being in a high or elevated place in the city center
Superstitious
Continued feeling of superstition
Mason dixon line
Reiteration of the symbolic Mason-Dixon Line
he's not on time, he's always on time
Emphasizing punctuality, contrasting with the earlier idea of being "way up downtown"
Turning the deadbolt, stars turn into light
Unlocking the door brings light and clarity
Holding his hand she'll finally sleep now
Being with someone brings comfort and peace
"I'm way up downtown"
Reiteration of being in a high or elevated place in the city center
Superstitious
Continued feeling of superstition
Mason dixon line
Reiteration of the symbolic Mason-Dixon Line
"I'm way up downtown"
Reiteration of being in a high or elevated place in the city center
Superstitious
Continued feeling of superstition
Mason dixon line
Reiteration of the symbolic Mason-Dixon Line
