Ever felt like you're just drifting through the motions of life? That's exactly what this song captures. It’s about feeling disconnected and lost, like you’re sleepwalking through your days. The lyrics talk about being "gone with the self of the day," suggesting a loss of identity and purpose. The mention of taking pills and getting into a mood hints at using substances to cope or escape reality. When he says "she gave me sleeping powder," it could symbolize someone or something numbing his senses even more, making him feel even more detached. Overall, it's a melancholic reflection on how easily we can become zombies in our own lives, losing touch with who we are and what truly matters.
Sleeping Powder
Lyrics
"Okay, last time
This is drugs
This is your brain on drugs
Any questions?"
I was gone with the self of the day, gone
With the self of the day, gone
With the self of the day, gone
Gone, gone, gone
I was gone
I'm back, where are we goin'?
Seem to get tired of the mornin' dawn
With a basin on my head
I'm missin' all that I used to know, then
I get the kids to go, and I get
Up on with certain dread
And when I see the kissing down below
Easy life, I get right
I was gone with the self of the day, gone
With the self of the day, gone
With the self of the day, gone
Gone, gone, gone
I was gone
I get dropped from where I belong
I take my pills and I get in the mood and I
Take five to get it to load in
Even in the place
And I get my jeans on right
And sit in the rows and
Inside I live in a cage and I
Peek out and summon the code and I
Enter the lake to face what I'm cagin'
Gone with the self of the day, gone
With the self of the day, gone
With the self of the day, gone
Gone, gone, gone
I was gone
She gave me sleeping powder
I was gone
Gone, gone, gone
Ahh!
I was gone with the self of the day, gone
With the self of the day, gone
With the self of the day, gone
Gone, gone, gone, gone
I was gone
