This song is genius; I love the buildup. I've been trying to figure out the lyrics since I first heard it. Are these lyrics from the liner notes, i.e. 'official'? Because the part in the middle seems impossible to discern entirely. Also, I hear 'While you're dreaming' rather than 'breathing' in the first/last verse...I think that fits into the context of the other lyrics better. I have wondered if this song is about what goes on in your brain while you are sleeping/dreaming, and maybe the middle part is a description of a particular dream. But all just guesses. Again, possibly the best song of 2012 so far.
