Fantasy Island

The Shins

Transposer:

Intro               verse 1 Long in tooth Olives and vermouth I dine like an aging pilot   Where are they now The money and the crowd Must I really come back down Pre-Chorus It’s like I never was a kid The big math just wasted youth on me Making impressions like I did Your friends never thought that much of me And now I want to fold Into something else An origami plane To a distant island   And I don’t want to show you my feelings I don’t want to force you to deal I just want to crash through the ceiling Before it gets too real           verse 2 All my life   Compromise on wings of resignation Big grey eyes staring from the sky Am I humble enough now? Pre-Chorus I’ve always had something to hide My skinny arms my evil intentions And back at school hitting the fire alarms Desperately wanting attention Well I was just a boy Out there on my own Wishing I could fly Fantasy island And I don’t want to show you my feelings I don’t want to bore you to death I just want to crash through the ceiling Get it off my chest           Break Pre-Chorus It’s like I never was a kid The big math just wasted youth on me Making impressions like I did Your friends never thought that much of me Well I was just a boy Out there on my own Wishing I could fly Fantasy island And I don’t want to show you my feelings I don’t want to force you to deal I just want to crash through the ceiling Before it gets too real    Before it gets too real    Before it gets too real    Real   Outro

La chanson évoque un sentiment de nostalgie et de frustration face à la perte de l'innocence d'enfance. Elle parle d'une quête de liberté et d'évasion, illustrée par le désir de s'envoler vers une île imaginaire, loin des pressions et des jugements de la société. L'artiste semble être tiraillé entre ses émotions et la peur de se dévoiler, exprimant une volonté de briser les barrières qui l'empêchent d'être véritablement soi-même. Ce mélange de vulnérabilité et de rêve nous rappelle que derrière chaque façade, il peut y avoir un désir profond de reconnecter avec des aspirations plus pures.
