Infinity
Matt Defreitas Lyrics

Down to earth.
Despite the overwhelming feelings and circumstances, the singer tries to remain humble and grounded.

Keep 'em falling when i know it hurts.
The singer continues to pursue love and connection even though it causes pain and heartbreak.

Goin faster than a million miles an hour.
The singer is moving through life quickly and recklessly, perhaps in pursuit of something that always seems just out of reach.

Trying to catch my breath some way, somehow.
Despite the rapid pace of life, the singer still struggles to keep up and find moments of calm.

It's like I'm frozen but the world still turns.
The singer feels stuck, unable to move forward or escape their circumstances, while life continues to move on around them without pause.

Stuck in motion, but the wheels keep spinning 'round.
The singer is trapped in a cycle of movement, but it feels like no progress is being made.

Moving in reverse with no way out.
The singer feels like they're going backwards instead of forwards, without any clear path to get where they want to be.

And now I'm one step closer to being two steps far from you.
Every decision the singer makes takes them one step further away from the person they love, even as they often feel like they have no choice in the matter.

And everybody wants you, everybody wants you.
The singer is acutely aware that the person they love is desirable to many other people, which only adds to their feelings of insecurity and fear that they might lose them.

How many nights does it take to count the stars?
The question is both rhetorical and existential - it's not about the practical task of counting stars, but about the mystery and wonder of the universe that the singer is pondering.

That's the time it would take to fix my heart.
Fixing the singer's broken heart feels like an impossible task, something so complex and vast that it would take the same amount of time and effort as trying to count the stars in the sky.

All I ever wanted was the truth, yeah yeah.
In a sea of uncertainty and doubt, the singer craves honesty and clarity above all else.

How many nights have you wished someone would stay?
The singer imagines the pain of being alone and wishing for companionship, something they have likely felt themselves.

Lie awake only hoping they're okay.
The fear of losing someone can be paralyzing, keeping the singer up at night with worry and anxiety.

I never counted all of mine.
The singer hasn't even tried to quantify the number of lonely, sleepless nights they've endured, knowing that the number would feel endless and overwhelming.

If I tried, I know it would feel like infinity, infinity, infinity.
Even the act of trying to count their nights of loneliness and despair feels overwhelming and impossible, like an endless cycle of pain and heartbreak.

Eyes can't shine unless there's something burning bright behind.
The singer realizes that their own eyes have lost their spark and energy, reflecting the emptiness and lack of passion that they feel inside.

Since you went away, there's nothing left in mine.
The singer blames their inner emptiness and numbness on the loss of the person they loved, who brought light and meaning to their life.

I feel myself running out of time.
The singer can sense the urgency of their situation, feeling like they're running out of opportunities to find love and connection before it's too late.
