Discover the story of the song > Dream – The Glorious Sons

The protagonist is reminiscing about a past relationship with a woman he loved but can't remember her name. He reflects on how she taught him to laugh and slow dance, but ultimately rejected his advances. He also reflects on his own identity as the closest thing his mother had to a daughter, and how he used to be ashamed of it but now sees it as a source of pride. The protagonist then discusses his struggle with his own weaknesses and the mistakes he's made, including punching a man on his wedding night. He realizes that he can't fix his past actions and as a result, he hasn't been involved with anyone romantically for 40 days. The protagonist acknowledges that everything may seem alright for a moment, but deep down, he still feels lost and disconnected.
