Bang Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Looking for light, it's so hard to find
Visions astound me, illusions a tease
Portals come quickly now, adrift on a breeze
Like well worn shoes that fit so well
Friends never die
We're in we're out in between
Waving good-bye
A pale looking face, invading my space
Granting his curses, giving them place
Nobody speaks names that I know
It's not what it seems
We're in we're out, in between
Waving good-bye to Popcorn Dreams
Popcorn Dreams
Another day of Popcorn Dreams
Waving good-bye
Another night of buttered screams
Smearing the sky
Popcorn Dreams
The lyrics to Bang's song Popcorn Dreams are cryptic and complex, suggesting an inner turmoil of the singer. The first two lines imply that the singer is trying to make sense of a chaotic world and is searching for something to cling onto. The mention of "illusions" and "portals" suggests a sense of confusion or disorientation. The next two lines introduce a theme of mortality, as the singer compares life to "well worn shoes" that never die, and then proceeds to bid farewell to a friend. The repeated refrain of "Popcorn Dreams" adds an element of whimsy to the song, almost as if the singer is attempting to make light of a difficult situation.
Line by Line Meaning
Slipping thru madness, falling thru time
Feeling lost and out of control, unsure where life is taking you
Looking for light, it's so hard to find
Searching for hope and positivity, despite hardship and struggle
Visions astound me, illusions a tease
Seeing things that amaze and surprise, but realizing they may not be real
Portals come quickly now, adrift on a breeze
Opportunities come and go rapidly, leaving you feeling uncertain and directionless
Like well worn shoes that fit so well
Feeling comfortable and familiar with certain aspects of life
Friends never die
Close relationships remain important and influential, even after death
We're in we're out in between
Life is a constantly shifting state of being, never fully settled or stagnant
Waving good-bye
Saying farewell to something or someone, with a sense of finality
Popcorn Dreams
Dreams that are light, fleeting, and not necessarily grounded in reality
A pale looking face, invading my space
Feeling threatened and intimidated by someone who appears weak and helpless
Granting his curses, giving them place
Allowing negative thoughts and influences to take hold and control your mindset
Nobody speaks names that I know
Feeling isolated and disconnected from those around you
It's not what it seems
Realizing that things are not as simple or straightforward as they appear
Another day of Popcorn Dreams
Another day of fleeting, temporary thoughts and desires
Another night of buttered screams
Another restless, anxious night marked by fear and uncertainty
Smearing the sky
Creating chaos and confusion, leaving a mark on what should be pristine and clear
