Trampoline Lyrics

I've been havin' dreams
Jumpin' on a trampoline
Flippin' in the air
I never learned to just float there
I'll be looking up
Suddenly the sky erupts
Flames alight the trees
Spread to fallin' leaves
Now they're right upon me

Wait if I'm...

    Suffering, pain inside, contemplating dying, it feels comforting when you have deep depression.
    I relate to this this song because I can't talk about it and this is exactly how I feel.
    I love this song, gives me a sense of relief.

    I also believe Trampoline is about abuse in a relationship. She loves this person so much, that even in her discomfort, she believes the love she has for her lover is worth it.

    She used to be a happy, carefree person, and she didn't have a lot of goals or ambitions, but she was content. And then, she met someone that overtook her state and before she knew it, she was compromised and got sucked into the cycle of abuse.

    She's now under the control of another, and she's dying, but she's happy to die - because, in her mind, she believes that she truly loves this person. She is aware that the safety and comfort in her life are gone, but she feels that she asked for this ('I wanted it to happen') - this is what she chose to do. The pain she's going through doesn't even make sense in her mind, but she also still prefers to believe this is where she is supposed to be.

    I love this song. She is screaming for help, but she doesn't see a way out. It contains beautiful imagery, and though it's tragic, many people are also trapped here and go through this every day. This song for me is about perspective and how important it is to share what you're going through with people that care about you. I hope this speaks to those that need this important advice.

    I believe this song is about how she was experiencing a horrifying moment and she was stuck there. She is trying to embrace the horribleness she is feeling.

    I believe the trampoline in here is like life where we keep flipping between our responsibilities & desires looking for pleasure and in this flipping one day we all will be meeting an end which is inevitable. Trying to gather which is never gonna be ours in the end.

    I think this song is about depression and its consequenses. As we all know, suicide is one of them and I think she feels like, If she dies, she would stop feeling the pain, that is why she says that she has never felt that loved, because she is in love with the idea of being free and stop feeling pain. Those dreams are her "way out".

    For me this song was eerily familiar, then I remembered. I literally had a dream jumping on a trampoline-I know how dumb this sounds but stick with me- so I looked up and there was this plane floating in the sky sort of tilting and swaying back and fourth. Then if went down completely and it hit the ground nose first and exploded. I remember feeling the shock of the plane exploding and flying backwards into the sky and I was floating, watching the rest of the explosion in slow motion. I had also dealt with and still do occasionally with suicidal ideations. A lot of traumatic things occurred throughout my life and I've barely been alive for two decades. Apparently someone's granddaughter thought this song was too saddening, but for the people who are constantly faced with abusive situations find sad and depressing songs comforting. Because there is someone expressing feelings and emotions they have been forced to repress, due to the lack of emotional support from the people they love and trust the most.
    So yeah, It's a sad song because it expresses those emotions and feelings everyone ignores.

    Hey guys
    This is my favorite song..
    I interpret it as 'everyone has a child within us & when u r happy inside out that kiddo come out of you.. This happiness comes when you meditate.. Believe me one feels so light & happy. I m lack of word to describe my feelings & this song does the needful. U see the world, what you choose to see.

    I think this song is about feeling things while you can. To me this means to embrace things as a young child rather than wait. When she says she’s having dreams about jumping on a trampoline to me this means she didn’t get to live a good childhood. (It’s my opinion)

    All I want to know is if this song makes teenager girls want to commit suicide ... my daughter is 14 and she plays this song all the time and I'm scared. She won't talk to me nor anyone. She's very quiet and hardly smiles... I need to help her!

    I think it is about feeling God’s love at the moment of passing. This very appropriate to this season and this time in history.

    She dreams of dying because she's tired. She's hurting so bad she feels weightless and powerless. She dreams of a beautiful life forgotten and the reality that it has passed. Her present state of being is numbness and surrender to the fact that she is lost. She remembers her strength and her worth but, is now too exhausted by the continual onslaught of the sad and lonely life she has steadily faced. She is giving up her spirit and simply existing. Death to her feels merciful.

    My granddaughter ( she's 5,5 years old ) is scared of the song. Every time she hears the song she tells me that girl wants to die. My granddaughter says it is very sad and scary and always asks to turn it off.

    When I listen to this song I interpret it as if it’s the end of humanity by ways of a asteroid. And the chorus states that if she is on fire, why she has never felt as lived as she does at this moment of “the end”. Further making me imagine that’s the deep love she is feeling is that of God our creator. So she embraces it all.

    I interpret the song as she is in an abusive relationship where it seems like her only relief is her dreams. She feels stuck and it seems like the only way to be free is to die. *(For anyone in this situation I know it feels like that but it is not true!)
