Worlds Apart
The Alchemy Index Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm stuck with memories of a life unknown.
Oh I wish that I could see the meaning of these dreams that still haunt me.
They say it fades with time, unsung friend of mine;
Between a distant light and where I sleep at night.
Just know, the one thing I remember of you at all
I could leave you to be just another nobody to be alive,
But I'm already dead inside.
They say it fades with time,
Don't call on me
Between a distant light and where I sleep tonight
This isn't what I had in mind for you
Don't call on me
I swore I'd be there till the end, dream of me
This isn't what I had in mind for you.
Just know, the one thing I remember of you at all
Is that you were a part of me that I could never reach.
And I could leave you to be just another nobody to be alive,
But I'm already dead inside.
And it's so obvious to see, the truth behind these dreams is just a dissonant reality;
Fragments of a time that were never meant to be seen.
Locked away, distant lights will guide me through these memories.
Like a key to a lock we'll never see, lock away these dreams
The lyrics of The Alchemy Index's song "Worlds Apart" explore the theme of unattainable dreams and unfulfilled desires. The singer expresses his frustration at being unable to fully grasp or understand his past experiences and memories. He longs for clarity and closure, yet is haunted by his dreams and memories, which he cannot fully comprehend. The phrase "between a distant light and where I sleep at night" suggests the singer is stuck between two worlds - reality and the unknown - and is struggling to reconcile his past with the present.
The lyrics suggest a sense of resignation and acceptance that the past cannot be changed, but that it still holds a powerful grip over the singer's present reality. The line "I could leave you to be just another nobody to be alive, but I'm already dead inside" highlights the sense of numbness and detachment the singer feels, having already given up on pursuing his unattainable dreams.
Overall, the lyrics of "Worlds Apart" offer a poignant reflection on the human experience of longing for something unattainable, and the frustration and pain that can result from such unfulfilled desires.

After all this time,
Even after a long period,
I'm stuck with memories of a life unknown.
I am still burdened with recollections of an unfamiliar existence.
Oh I wish that I could see the meaning of these dreams that still haunt me.
I desire to comprehend the significance of these persistent dreams.
They say it fades with time, unsung friend of mine;
People suggest that these memories will lose their potency over time, my friend who was not celebrated.
Between a distant light and where I sleep at night.
Somewhere in the divide between a far-off glow and my resting place.
Just know, the one thing I remember of you at all
Be aware that the solitary recollection I retain of you
Is that you were a part of me that I could never reach
Is that you played a role in my life that I could never fully connect with
I could leave you to be just another nobody to be alive,
I could abandon you to be an ordinary person striving to survive,
But I'm already dead inside.
But I am already devoid of life from within.
They say it fades with time,
They say those memories will lose their potency over time.
Don't call on me
Do not rely on me.
Between a distant light and where I sleep tonight
In the abyss that exists somewhere between a far-off gleam and my current resting place
This isn't what I had in mind for you
This is not the outcome I had hoped for you.
Don't call on me
Do not rely on me.
I swore I'd be there till the end, dream of me
I promised I would remain by your side until the conclusion, remember me.
This isn't what I had in mind for you.
This is not the outcome I had hoped for you.
Just know, the one thing I remember of you at all
Remember, my solitary recollection of you,
Is that you were a part of me that I could never reach.
Is that you played a role in my life that I could never fully connect with.
And I could leave you to be just another nobody to be alive,
I could forsake you to be an ordinary person striving to survive,
But I'm already dead inside.
But I am already devoid of life from within.
And it's so obvious to see, the truth behind these dreams is just a dissonant reality;
It is apparent that the facts behind these dreams are just a conflicting reality;
Fragments of a time that were never meant to be seen.
Remnants of a time that were never intended to be observed.
Locked away, distant lights will guide me through these memories.
Sealed off, far-off illuminations will steer me through these recollections.
Like a key to a lock we'll never see, lock away these dreams
Like an unseen key to an unrevealed lock, let's conceal these dreams.
