Coma
Kunek Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
From your coma
It's in your head
It's in your head
Wake up
It's almost over
It's in your head
Wake up
From the comfort
It's in your head
It's in your head
Wake up
The dream is over
It's in your head
It's all just a piece
Of a thousand pages
Lying on the floor
And it's all just a part
Of a thousand people
Dying like before ...
(not sure on the last line?)
At its core, Kunek's song Coma is a hauntingly beautiful call to someone lost in their own mind to wake up and come back to reality. The repetition of the phrase "it's in your head" serves as a reminder that the things they are experiencing are not real, but rather a product of their own subconscious. The first stanza is a wake-up call urging the person to break free from their mental prison and come back to the land of the living. The second stanza reassures the listener that the end is near, and that their mind is coming back under their control. The final stanza is a plea to the person to leave their sense of comfort behind and embrace the reality of their situation, letting go of the dream that has taken hold of them.
