Innocence
Soman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Inside the train of dreams
the rain poured down in black and white
I stood and stared
the rest of what remains
My own world crumbling around (a wild world crumbling
around)
One day comes after another
the falling rain
carassed my skin again
just let it flow to wash away
the time gone by
feeling long denyed
my heart is no more bounded in vain (in pain)
and now its clear
one day leads on to another
I dried my tears (cried my tears)
there's so much else to dicover
somewhere...
I hear the sound
Of thousand voices
I lost my innocence
I'm on my way
Across the desert
To rescue what I sent
Out of my heart and way
Now it's clear
One day leads on to another
To find our fears
Find the way back to each other
oh!
I hear the sound
Of thousand voices
I lost my innocence
I'm on my way
Across the desert
To rescue what I sent
Out of my heart...
I hear the sound
f thousand voices
I lost my innocence
and I'm on my way
across the desert
to rescue what i sent
out of my heart and way

I woke today
I opened my eyes and began a new day
Inside the train of dreams
Within the realm of my subconscious mind
the rain poured down in black and white
The rain fell heavily with a stark contrast of dark and light
I stood and stared
I observed my surroundings without action
the rest of what remains
What is left of everything
My own world crumbling around (a wild world crumbling around)
My personal life falling apart (or the chaotic world around me)
I held my tears
I suppressed my emotions
One day comes after another
Time passes relentlessly and life goes on
the falling rain
The precipitation from the sky
carassed my skin again
Touched and grazed against my body once more
just let it flow to wash away
Allow it to run its course and cleanse what needs to be released
the time gone by
The duration that has passed
feeling long denyed
Longing for something that was denied or not received
my heart is no more bounded in vain (in pain)
My heart no longer holds onto futile or painful attachments
and now its clear
Now I have clarity or understanding
one day leads on to another
Each day paves the way for the next and life goes on
I dried my tears (cried my tears)
I shed my tears and let out my emotions
there's so much else to discover
There are many other things to be explored or experienced
somewhere...
In some unknown place
I hear the sound
I perceive the noise or sensation
Of thousand voices
The echoes of many individuals or influences
I lost my innocence
I have lost my naivety or inexperience in life
I'm on my way
I am gradually moving forward
Across the desert
Through the barren, unforgiving terrain
To rescue what I sent
To save what I have put out to the universe
Out of my heart and way
From my deepest emotions and actions
To find our fears
To locate and confront our apprehensions
Find the way back to each other
Rediscover how we can connect and bond with one another
oh!
An exclamation of emotion or realization
