Space and Time
Sound System Lyrics

The lyrics of Sound System's song "Space and Time" express a feeling of nostalgia for a past relationship that was once vibrant and significant. The opening lines "Yeah I remember in space and time, And I remember when you were mine" create a sense of sentimentality as the singer recalls being in love in a distant past. The assertion that "All that mattered was synthesized" suggests that the relationship may have been built on a superficial foundation, one that perhaps lacked depth or was heavily influenced by external factors like technology or media.

However, the tone shifts with the line "Yeah I remember when the future died," evoking a sense of loss and sadness. The ensuing lines "And now the rain clouds keep it dark, Because of why I'm so alone" create an atmosphere of isolation and despair. But despite this, the singer asserts they can change things and elevate their love to a higher place, with the lines "Oh give me that, Let me change, I take my love a higher place."

The final lines of the song "We could be only this time, Reaching back across the line, You and me never asking why?" are hopeful and suggest a desire to rekindle the past relationship, despite any barriers or challenges that may be present. The song ultimately seems to be about the push and pull between holding onto the past and the possibility of moving forward into a brighter future.
