DAY DREAMING
Day Dreaming Lyrics
I stare off into space,
Wondering what’s beyond life and dream.
I don’t know how,
But I wonder if this place is real.
I fade in, fade out,
The edges start to blur.
I reach for something real,
And nothing feels secure.
Closer, farther,
Between, beyond,
Elsewhere, nowhere,
Inside.
Oh God, goddammit.
Daydreaming,
Falling in between,
Losing where I am,
Slipping out of frame.
Wide awake,
But not in this place,
Drifting far into space.
I close my eyes
And try to escape.
Take me closer to paradise
Before it’s taken away from me today.
I’ve been waiting,
I’ve been wondering,
I’ve been hoping you wake up again.
I’ve been praying,
I’ve been patient.
You’ll be drifting off again.
This time,
I won’t wake you again.
I keep listening,
You keep sleeping.
I stay present,
You fall inward.
I keep listening,
You keep sleeping.
I stay present,
You fall inward.

Day Dreaming is a song about escaping so far into your own mind that reality starts to disappear. The song begins from inside the dreamer’s perspective, then shifts to the friend who has been waiting for them to come back. By the end, the dream no longer feels like paradise—it becomes the place they may never leave.
