Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Beyond dreams
Beyond life
You will find your song
Before sound to be found
Close your eyes and rise
Higher still, endless thrill
To the land of love, beyond loveCome alive and you'll find
Forever watching you and I
You are the night, you are the ocean
You are the light behind the cloud
You are the end and the beginning
A world where time is not allowed
There's no such thing as competition
To find our way we lose control
Remember love's our only mission
This is the journey of the soul
The perfect song is framed with silence
It speaks of places never seen
Your home's a promise long forgotten
It is the birthplace of your dreams

This song speaks of falling irrevocably, unconditionally, head over heels do no wrong in love with yourself. It's an incredibly spiritual song, full of beauty.
The angel eye is the way you see things when you reach this utterly unified enlightened state. The land of love.
The third verse speaks of recognising you, as that love, as everything. No longer under the illusion of separation, you recognise you are everything. You are the light behind the clouds. You are the end and the beginning, a place where time is not allowed. This references back to the first verse, which speaks of finding your 'song' - which can be interpreted as purpose, truth, essence, Self et al, and how it was here before sound itself.
In this unified state, psychological time is not present as we understand it. The recollections of 'past' and projections of 'future' fall away, beyond their most basic practical applications.
The present moment is all there is, and the awe, wonder, magic, love and gratitude of this eternal moment, that you are it, there and that, is what this alludes to.
The perfect song is rimmed with silence, this can both be peace of mind, no-mind, no thought and/or the practice of meditation - all of which speak of places never seen - of brand new sights to behold.
Your home's a promise long forgotten (the land of love), and it is the birthplace of you and your dreams, which you are also; a dream.
There's no such thing as competition - when the absolute unitive, wondrous, blissful state of true love - not directed or absorbed from/to an external entity, only to yourself, being both the worshipper and worshipped - competition is utterly irrelevant and unnecessary. It isn't required.
To find a way we'll lose control. The way to get there/here is to surrender the illusion of control as we understand it.
This whole song is about finding out who and what you are in a spiritual sense.
Love's our only mission, and it is a journey of the soul.
I love Daft Punk. I love you.

I always hear:
"There's no such thing as "complication"
To find a way we lose control
Remember, love's our only mission
This is a journey of the soul
The perfect song is framed with silence
It speaks of places never seen
You "hold" a promise long forgotten
It is the birthplace of your dreams"
