Sven on the "Rocky" video inspiration:
"'Yeah. I was totally incapacitated with this foot and I called my friend, and we always make videos together. And he just came up here and we tried to honestly make something serious and it just didn’t work. We tried for like a week to brainstorm shit, and I just think that I’m not that serious of a person. So if I try to make a big art statement or whatever, it’s always going to be kind of stupid. You know, or if I take myself too seriously, it depends. This song was never meant to be taken too seriously. So we had done all this work, and then we came back and put it together and we’re like, well, this is just bad. There was a moment where my friend almost went back home and we were going to have to tell the label that it didn’t work out. And then my friend went out to the hot tub to just calm down because we were kind of stressed about it and I was just like let’s just make something stupid. That was literally it. Let’s just make something dumb.'"

Dream, dream
I just, I just dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream
I won't crash your car (what?)
If you don't crash mine and I'll
Only feel better half of the time
And I don't know if I'm awake or I'm dead
I always remember that you love me
When I leave my lonely body
I always remember that you need me
When I'm nodding off slowly, so
I just, I just dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream
That it isn't how it seems
Seems, seems, seems
Yeah, we'll be caught up in between
'Tween, 'tween, 'tween, 'tween
And it's only you and me for the evening
I slept for three days, officially
Got no idea what you said to me
I go to sleep so you'll be next to me
I'm not lazy, no
She hit me like that, you know it's good for me
She got me running back and accidentally
Wrote a symphony, when you spoke
I always knew you could go off
I always remember that you love me
When I leave my lonely body
I always remember that you need me
When I'm nodding off slowly, so
I just, I just dream
Dream, dream, dream, dream
That it isn't how it seems
Seems, seems, seems
Yeah, we'll be caught up in between
'Tween, 'tween, 'tween, 'tween
And it's only you and me
For the evening
I always remember that you love me
When I leave my lonely body
I always remember that you need me
When I'm nodding off slowly
The song "Rocky" by Still Woozy is a dreamy track that captures the feeling of drifting in and out of consciousness. The chorus repeats the phrase "I just dream," emphasizing the dreamlike state the singer is in. The first verse introduces the theme of uncertainty, with the lines "And I don't know if I'm awake or I'm dead." This sets the tone for the rest of the song, as the singer struggles with feelings of disorientation and confusion.
The second verse delves into the singer's relationship with a significant other. The lines "She hit me like that, you know it's good for me / She got me running back and accidentally / Wrote a symphony, when you spoke" describe a powerful connection that inspires creativity and passion. However, there is still a sense of uncertainty, as the singer admits to sleeping for three days and not remembering what was said to him.
Overall, "Rocky" is a song about feeling adrift and uncertain, but finding comfort and connection in someone else. The dreamlike quality of the music and lyrics creates a sense of floating or drifting, adding to the overall feeling of being in a liminal space.
