| Tame Impala – Endors Toi Lyrics | 10 years ago |
|
it's really a perfect song to be on lonerism. totally encapsulates escaping from the world you share with others into the only world that is completely your own. i think it's also an ode to how magical and healing sleep is, and its ability to relieve your mind from whatever crap is happening in "real life". Endors-toi -- Keving telling someone (I assume he's telling himself) to fall asleep so he/she can escape too. The first part of the song describes how the surroundings in your dream feel completely real, but the life you lead is surreal. i'm not sure if "do or die" refers to how you can take risks or die in dream, but not suffer any consequence irl, or if it's about telling himself that he can get out of the do or die of life and find time in his sleep world to make things feel better: "Real worlds, surreal life Do or die There is time Go to sleep You'll be fine" Waking up you're back in this exhausting world: "In the morning you'll find Real life was such a grind" everything is going to be ok, because once the day is done you can escape by falling asleep and drifting into new worlds inside your head: "Off I go, day is done Where a new one's just begun" |
