The Cinematics Lyrics

It's all so beautiful tonight
The surroundings seem picturesque and visually pleasing during the night.

It's all so beautiful inside
The singer is feeling positive emotions inside him.

I know what you know
The singer can relate and empathize with the other person's thoughts and emotions.

I feel it, too
The singer is experiencing similar emotions as the other person.

A change is coming 'round, yeah
Both the singer and the other person sense that changes are coming soon.

They've seen it, too
It's not just the singer and the other person who see the changes, others have noticed it as well.

It's just a tick-tock of another clock
The changes are part of the natural progression of time.

It's going around, around
Time keeps moving forward and the changes will happen whether we want them or not.

And if we don't make a move too soon
If the singer and the other person don't act fast enough, they will be caught off guard by the changes.

They're gonna sneak up from under you
The changes will happen unexpectedly and without warning.

It's just a feeling that we need to get to okay
The singer and the other person need to come to terms with their emotions and feelings.

It's moving my mind to breaking
The singer is feeling overwhelmed and stressed, which is affecting their mental state.

Just to turn and lie again
The singer doesn't want to face reality and is trying to escape from it by lying.

I don't want this, no we don't need this
The singer and the other person want to avoid the situation they are in.

I turn the lights out, turn the lights out again
The singer is trying to shut off their mind and escape the reality by turning off the lights.

And watch some more television and I
The singer is trying to find distractions by watching TV.

Imageology world (? that's what it sounds like to me...)
The singer is criticizing the society's focus on superficial image and ignoring substantial aspects.

Where substance is nothing and image is everything
Society places more importance on how things look instead of what they actually are.

Oh, hey
A casual exclamation of agreement or surprise.

Say you feel it
The singer is asking the other person if they are feeling the same way about the situation.

There's so much more
The singer believes that there is a lot more to life and the world than what they are currently experiencing.

More than this
There is more to the world than the superficial things that society values.

Don't want to be here
The singer does not want to be in their current situation.

On my own
The singer feels alone and unsupported.

Stop taking this too far
The singer wants to halt the changes from progressing any further.

Chase it down
The singer wants to take action to face and tackle the changes head-on.

I'll chase it away
The singer wants to confront the changes and overcome them.

'Cos I don't want to be alone
The singer wants support and companionship during the difficult period of change.

It's not what I'm living for
The singer does not want to live a life of loneliness and isolation.

Oh, I'll be staring at the stars
The singer will look up and wonder about the vastness of the universe and their place in it.

It's all so beautiful tonight
The beauty of nature is helping the singer find some solace during the difficult period of change.
