Leave It In My Dreams — The Voidz Lyrics

Song Factoids!
"Leave It In My, Dreams". Be a song by The Voidz, this one dropped first as single from them second, studio album, name of 'Virtue' on 23th of January in 2018. Now this album, it was launched two months later on 30th March, 2018 and this album kinda marked band's no.1 released after they shortened name from "Julian Casablancas + The Voidz" to just "The Voidz"​​.

What Does "Leave It In My Dreams" Even Means Anyway?
This here song starts veering into deep stuff like existential angst, and searching, you know, for real purpose in this here world that's changing so fast it spins your head right around. At the start you might think it's just a nice melodic escape into, you know, like the arms of escapism what with Julian Casablanca's dreamy smooth vocals and them lush soundscapes made by the band. But! Hang on a sec and take a peek underneath, yeah? Real deep-like. And you see it ain't simple. It's a complex exploration of existential questions and the search of meaning beyond, well, more than what's on the surface​​.

The story in the song, well it balances, like a juggler, the want for escapism with the harsh face-to-face of life's twist and turns. It talks about frailty and orbited around vulnerability, of finding comfort in dreams cause they softer than the reality we live in, and accepting that life, it got sudden and surreal decisions and they ain't easy to just 'delete' or ignore. Suggestion not to "overthink it"? That there might be kind of a mantra to get some respite from the swirling chaos that our mind churns out and the analysis paralysis gripping us by the neck.

Now, this other layer, it takes the cake as well, alluding to this breakup with "Edison" in the lyrics, and it's like they saying no to the old ways, yearning for the genuine in a world that's all about the superficial. This particularly, kind of a pivotal point, indicating the shift from the known to a life of self-definition.

Let's not forget! "Leave It In My Dreams" ain't just that, it delves into the clash between maintaining relationships and pursuing the personal truths one seeks. Shows us the difficult truth of accepting that the significant other might not be, umm, our all in all, ultimate source of truth and fulfillment that we want them to be. Once this is swallowed down, it leads to moving the unmet wants and unresolved issues into the dreams, kinda avoiding the hurt reality can pack​​.

Musically? The song ventures into unknown territories crossing the genre lines, mixing good old guitar tunes with etheric synth sounds; ensure its place in time as a evergreen tune leading listeners into introspection about their lives and meanings they assign to their passions amid the dissonant notes of life​​. Play it in loop and you might just find the answer to how many licks it takes to reach the center of a Tootsie Pop.
