This song is so beautiful. This probably is my favorite Katy Rose song. But getting passed that and going into the meaning, I believe it is quite apparent.
Basically it looks like she is drawing something from the past, when she was just a child, and taking a little journey in wondrous Earth.
And for some reason, Katy made it without losing her dreams. And hopefully her innocence. That we don't realize that we all see the world in such a different way as adults. And then we play it off and say, we're not imagining anymore. It's just reality. That's such bull$hit.
This part has saved my life once or twice before. And it most notably sticks out to me:
"I'm teachin' myself to believe in the things I don't understand,
I don't even know if they're true,
that's what dreamers do"
We live a life of little sparks. Little glimpses of who we are outside of this world. And as a dreamer, we wish, fantasize, and dream our way to our true vision. That we may be grabbing straws, and we may not know why, yet our dreams are so pure. And so clear.
Until you choose to start losing them. Choose to start giving them up for "life." For our careers, our bills, our reality. And suddenly the dreams gets tucked away in a little box. Well that is fine. Because they are so precious. But then sooner or later we start making decisions to cut them out all together.
"Stapled eyes can't open until waking,
and all your lies will be your undertaking"
The world will shut your eyes. And they will seal it (staple it). And then when you live a life of conditioning, of forcing yourself to achieve, you live a lie. A lie that is not of who you really are. Of your potential.
This world is based on time. So make your dreams, and if you decide to tuck them away, do so. But always hold onto them. For they'll be realized.
Dreams never happen in this world only based on one thing: People give up. They get this dose of reality, and all of a sudden they become empty. Makes me wonder what the real drug is. At least in the way this world condemns it.
