Sleepwalkers
Zegota Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The solitary creature is like as
He wanders in big cities?...
I had a dream I walked the city in my sleep
And that I found my way home at last
Nothing could lead me there but the things I dreamed
And in the end that was all I needed
And dreamed from all the world's (?heeds?)
And we walked hand in hand down from the museum
As the whole world fell in
And no one around could believe their eyes
O'er one and too many more
It's one of those things you die to believe is true
It takes courage to see that it's not
And I had a dream I walked the city in my sleep
And that I found my way home at last
And nothing could lead me there but the things that I dreamed
And in the end that was all I needed
To find my way
In Zegota's song Sleepwalkers, the lyrics paint a picture of the solitary creature roaming in big cities, followed by the dream of the singer walking the city in their sleep. The dream takes them on a journey where they end up finding their way home, guided only by the things they dreamed of. The rain falling in Stockholm represents a pivotal moment where the whole world seems to be crashing down. As the singer walks hand in hand with someone down from the museum, they see the world falling apart, and no one can believe their eyes. The last stanza talks about how one needs to have courage to accept that some things may not be true, and that sometimes, all one needs is to hold on to the things they dream of to find their way home.
The lyrics of Sleepwalkers can have different interpretations, but one common theme is finding one's way in a world that seems unstable and unpredictable. The dream-like quality of the lyrics conveys the idea that sometimes, we need to hold on to our dreams to find our way in life. The image of walking the city in one's sleep suggests a feeling of being disconnected from reality and the need to find a way back home, both literally and figuratively. The rain falling in Stockholm can represent a moment of crisis, a turning point where the world as we knew it crumbles, and we have to rely on our inner strength and resilience to keep going.
Line by Line Meaning
Ah, mon ami, do you know what
Hey, my friend, have you ever wondered
The solitary creature is like as
What it's like to be alone in a bustling city
He wanders in big cities?...
And how a person like that navigates through it all?
I had a dream I walked the city in my sleep
I had a surreal experience where I navigated the city while asleep
And that I found my way home at last
And finally found my way back home in the dream
Nothing could lead me there but the things I dreamed
I relied solely on my dream sequences to guide me back home
And in the end that was all I needed
To reach my destination, all I required was the dream
It rained for the first time in Stockholm last night
Last night, Stockholm received its first rainfall
And dreamed from all the world's (?heeds?)
And it felt like the rain was answering the entire world's needs
And we walked hand in hand down from the museum
We strolled together from the museum, hand in hand
As the whole world fell in
As everything else around us seemed to collapse
And no one around could believe their eyes
Nobody else could fathom what was happening
O'er one and too many more
It was a lot to take in for everyone witnessing it
It's one of those things you die to believe is true
Sometimes there are occurrences so unbelievable, we wish they were true
It takes courage to see that it's not
However, it takes bravery to accept that it's not real
And I had a dream I walked the city in my sleep
And just like before, I had this dream where I traversed the city in my slumber
And that I found my way home at last
Once again, I reached my destination in the dream
And nothing could lead me there but the things that I dreamed
Similar to the first time, I relied solely on my dreams to guide me
And in the end that was all I needed
But it was enough to help me find my way home
To find my way
To navigate my way back home through my dreams
