You will never waste my time, no, no
You will never waste my time, 'cause...
She locks all the doors and turns, says,
"We will always be safe here in this bed"
All I see scares me, and no one waits forever [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/l/lydia/all_i_see.html ]
So come closer, baby
I want to see what you're made of
See what you're made of
'Cause this isn't all we could be
You're not the same, and I'm
I'm not the same and...
No one could ever wait for you
And no one, yeah, no one could ever
Wait for you, I'll wait for you
But you are the never ending sleep
That I, I love to treat with this medicine
I get from my, my closer friends
But all I see
So come closer, baby
I want to see what you're made of
See what you're made of
'Cause this isn't all we could be
You're not the same, and I'm
I'm not the same, and...
I doubt i can say it better than djmc, but i will try my best...
'all i see scares me... ' i couldn't find a better word. Scared. Scared because he see's only the good in this girl, only everything he has ever wanted in someone, all it can do is put fear in him because he honestly thought nothing could possibly exist.
He can't help to feel the way he does, no matter what the sitation, her being with someone, or even fresh out of something serious. He see's the potential in her, and for that he would wait... No matter how long.
'she locks all the doors and turns, says,
"we will always be safe here in this bed"
They're only content and at ease when with eachother, they both feel the same, and know the love and future they could have, yet, each has their reason to be hesitant, even if it's wrong that they are...
'cause this isn't all we could be
you're not the same, and i'm
i'm not the same and... '
They both feel the same, and know that they should be together, they aren't the same with someone else, and aren't the same alone, it only feels right with eachother, and they both know that, especially him.
'but you are the never ending sleep
that i, i love to treat with this medicine
i get from my, my closer friends
but all i see... '
Love causes people to do crazy things, even to get no sleep, and to be helped by those close to him (friends). And no matter what they try to tell him, all he can do is see her in his mind, dream of her even when awake, and continue to love her more and more.
The meaning i get from this song (because im in a similar position) is that no matter how deep the love between this boy and a girl could get to be, she is following with her plans of going away. So thats what he is scared about, loosing her, but also they have to make the most of the little time they still have so theres no room for fears when they are together. That makes you have nightmares and share those fears with other people (your friends). And the relationship they have right now isnt all they could be because theres no point in getting complicated when they just want to make the most of the time left. "clean your thoughts, tonight we are safe together, remove your fears, and come closer baby, i want to see what you are made of". Is what i imagine him saying. This song for me is what we avoid discussing, or even thinking: am i going to wait for you? You know i could, should i?
If the sleep he gets is never ending, then how can thoughts of her be keeping him up? If anything it sounds like the boy is sleeping away the days, waiting for her. How do his friends help? Maybe they drag him out of bed and try to motivate him to get up and going.
I don't really know. But i like your analysis, djmc.
Its about a boy and a girl, but it's what the girl does to the boy all the time. That boy cant help feel the way he does when hes with that girl. Even when they're not together, lets say she has a diffrent boyfriend or something that boy will always wait for that girl because all that she is scares him so much that he is in love with this girl and he doesnt want to lose her and no one will wait for her longer then he would.. Ever
Both the girl and the boy know that if they're together it will be love because they both know how much they can love each other. " 'cause this isn't all we could be "
And the boy loses sleep just over the thought of this girl and he needs comfort from his friends to help him... Them being the medicine
And that is what i think this song means.. If im wrong then im wrong
