Dream Warriors Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The opening lyrics of Dream Warriors' song "Maximum 60 Lost In A Dream" signify a sense of disorientation and confusion that the singer is experiencing. The song title itself refers to being lost in a dream, which could suggest that the singer is in a state of unconsciousness or deep thought. The use of the word "maximum" emphasizes the intensity of this feeling, perhaps implying a sense of being overwhelmed.
As the song progresses, the lyrics paint a picture of a world that is full of chaos and uncertainty. The singer seems to be struggling to make sense of their surroundings, with lines like "lost in the city, no one cares about me" suggesting that they feel isolated and disconnected from the world around them. However, there is also a sense of resilience and determination in the lyrics, with lines like "I'll never stop dreaming, no matter the cost" indicating that the singer is determined to find their way through this difficult time.

Yo, where'd everybody go?
Hey, where did everyone disappear to?
I'm last to leave, held up by a slow dance with a dime piece
I am the final one to leave, detained by dancing leisurely with an attractive woman.
Time flies by, but I can't wait another minute
Time goes so fast, but I cannot wait any longer.
Living in a world where nobody's winning
Existing in a universe where no one is triumphing.
There's not even a chance to cheat
There is no opportunity to deceive or cheat.
It's like the edge of a cliff, everyone's slippin'
It feels as though we are at the brink of a cliff, and everyone is gradually losing their footing.
They say I'm different, but I just wanna fit in
People claim that I am distinct, but all I desire is to belong.
I'm tired of messin' up, I'm tired of givin' in
I am exhausted from making mistakes and surrendering so easily.
I'm tired of bein' plagued by the memories in my head
I am drained from constantly being tormented by the recollections in my mind.
Been lookin' for the way out, but the doors all dead
I've been searching for an exit, but the doors are all shut and impassable.
It's like I'm maximum 60, lost in a dream
I feel as though I am limited by my age and lost in a dream.
