Dream Koala Lyrics

all these landscapes, i wish i had seen.
what if theres no tomorrow?
what if theres no tomorrow?
if these planes crash tonight, i couldnt see today tomorrow...
In the song Odyssey by Dream Koala, the artist uses metaphors to take the listener on a journey through a person's contemplation of the meaning of life. The first line, "The coldest mountains take us in the greatest place, the highest trip", refers to the difficulty and challenges in life that, when overcome, lead us to the most rewarding experiences. The use of the word "trip" can also reference a psychedelic experience or a spiritual journey. The next line, "all these landscapes, I wish I had seen", is a reflection on missed opportunities and regret. The person desires to have experienced more in life but feels as though they have fallen short.
The chorus poses the question, "what if there's no tomorrow?" This is a common trope in philosophical discussions about the meaning of life - what if there is no future to look forward to? The repetition of the line adds a sense of urgency and anxiety. The final line of the chorus, "if these planes crash tonight, I couldn't see today tomorrow", conjures an image of a person on a plane staring out the window, contemplating their mortality. The line highlights the fragility of life - even something as simple as a plane crash could prevent a person from experiencing tomorrow.
Overall, the song Odyssey explores themes of regret, mortality, and the search for meaning in life. Dream Koala uses vivid metaphors and imagery to create a deeply introspective and contemplative mood.

“I wrote this song when I woke up from a dream where I was dying in a plane crash. It’s about the fear of not reaching your goals, the fear to die without realizing your dreams...It is somewhere between dream and reality, between death and life. I didn’t want to put a character in it because I wanted people to feel like they were the main character.” - Dream Koala
