Conceiving You Lyrics
I’ve been watching you
Not waiting for the right moment to make the first move
Do you want to know
Why I keep avoiding your eyes
And why I’m running away?
It’s crazy, I know
I’ve been conceiving you for too long
Or maybe I’m destined to be alone?
Or maybe there’s someone who will understand
That I’m not able to share my world?
I’m still running away
It’s crazy, I know
I’ve been conceiving you for too long
If only I could change all things around
Still conceiving you all along…
I’ve been conceiving you for too long
If only I could change all things around
I’ve been conceiving you for too long
I’ve grown used to that
Still conceiving you all along…
Not waiting for the right moment to make the first move
Do you want to know
Why I keep avoiding your eyes
And why I’m running away?
It’s crazy, I know
Or maybe there’s someone who will understand
That I’m not able to share my world?
I’m still running away
It’s crazy, I know
If only I could change all things around
If only I could change all things around
I’ve been conceiving you for too long
I’ve grown used to that

To me it's quite self explanatory... It is about someone who just got used to watching someone from a distance, imagining them, and feels unable to change the thoughts into reality, to actually meet them when there is a chance. Imagination is just safer and more comfortable. "I've grown used to that"... And the person could be autistic, sure, but doesn't really have to. Maybe it's all driven by fear. Anyone can be this fearful.
Sounds like someone with an unacquainted love. They love someone but are fearful of actually making a move.
Sometimes the thought is more ideal than the reality too. That is what you conceive may be better than anything you can actually realise.
Somehow lyrics of this song make me think of an autistic person. A person who doesn't know how to share a life with others, but still wishes to do it. Those who know more about autism, will also know that people suffering from this disorder actually want someone who will understand them.
@lindencat It may be. Specifically about trying to love someone. I have autism and went through a rejection experience this week, for reasons the lyricist explains well, and the entire Reality Dream trilogy is hitting me hard at the moment.

If you listen to the lyrics in Volte Face, and believe it’s a personality dealing with their duo sides, this could be the prominent personality speaking to the self. Hope that’s not to esoteric:)
