Dreams We've Had - Perfectly Out Of Place (Official Video)

The best and worst part
Of waking from a dream
Is that it happened
And when you sleep again
It will happen again
And the big, long dream
Is something for another time

Directed by Keegan Burckhard and Mike Markes
Much love to them for creating this. Working alongside them was a dream and an honor.

Lyrics:
Take me back
Where I was
Your only friend
Well, I was
Patiently waiting on
Your response
You’re perfectly out of place
​
You say, “If I can’t love myself
then how the hell can I try to love you?”
Did you forget how it first felt
Or did you feel nothing when I held on to you?
You’re perfectly out of place
(You’re perfectly out of place)
​
It made me want to hurt myself
But I would never do that to you
But I still thought it through
Sleep tonight and think this through
You are the only one that I care about
You’re perfectly out of place
​
And you’re so beautiful
I wish I could reach out and touch you
Soft skin
Your lips
I could die, I could die
And never cry again
Soft skin
Your lips
I could die, I could die
And never cry again
​
And I’ll just say it outright
I won’t try to be poetic or silly
I cut myself on the bathroom floor
With scissors, and I bled
I couldn’t reconcile the pain I had
So I made myself breathe a new way
And I tried to hide my scars
But when you saw the bloodstains
On my bedsheets
You said “What’s wrong”
And held me
And I felt loved
And I felt loved for the first time
In what seemed like forever
And as you grasped me tight
I felt like I was in the arms of God
And there I wailed
And there I wailed
You’re perfectly out of place
​

i'm listening this 1 week after i attempted suicide, until my mom found out everything, i fell into her arms feeling like the most loved person, at least once in my life

[Regina]

It's hard to believe that such a flawless song as this exists
and i was lucky enough to find it

[alltimeninaa]

"And I felt loved for the first time
In what seemed like forever
And as you grasped me tight
I felt like I was in the arms of God
And there I wailed"

[nishrasejpal]

This is your first song that I'd listened to. Can't stop since. This music video is exceptional, so beautiful, does absolute justice to the song. It's all so lovely

[AL-gomv]

I can't lie. Everytime this song comes on I get chills and cry. It is such an emotional and powerful song. My brother passed away last Febuary and It has been difficult to process. This song helps.

[peckerhead]

This song transcends the material world and lives in the divine.

Every time I hear this song, I weep, tears of absolutely love, gratitude, sadness, and pain.

To everyone whom may listen to this song and everyone who has listened to this song, thank you for being so beautiful and filled with humanity.

I love you all.

Be Blessed and thank you

when i was at my lowest, i was in the middle of losing my partner of four years. we both saw it coming, but i couldn't come to terms with it. i was alone, and i clawed at my face until i bled. my partner came home and saw what happened to me, and gave me a hug, and helped me find someone in therapy to talk to.

hearing this song say "And as you grasped me tight I felt like I was in the arms of God" made me feel so heard. i will never forget that hug. it kept me here.

thankfully, i am doing a lot better, and so is my ex. my heart goes out to whoever is reading this and is in pain. i know how it feels. <3

[klowyyy]

The first time I listened to this song, I feel like I was floating or being transferred into another universe. The lyrics, the meaning behind the lyrics and just everything about this song is perfect. I could listen to it everyday.

[jamesryan]

This is an instant dreampop classic. It. Is. A. Classic. It came on today on a mix I had playing while fitting doors in a house. I said to myself "what the hell is this?" Now I know. Wishes from Ireland

[irdiantens]

this is so beautifully produced it’s art. i am so proud keep up with this shit

[cherrygoboom]

This is literally my first relationship, those lyrics fit it so well and honestly this makes me think about her so much, even though she broke me as a person not just my heart.
I don't love her anymore but I sure miss being friends.

[sypherdex]

It's so sad to think that bands like these whose music literally talks to your soul are left unappreciated by most of people :((((

[hamzaabushabana]

a girl i like sent me this song, i mean i like her from my side never said anything about it, but this song means a lot to me because she’s the first girl to make me feel something in years, and i’m thankful for this song because i know even if it doesn’t work out eventually it’s gonna always remind me of her, even if i can sense that it’s not mutual but at least i’m just happy she’s there.

[sodasoda]

been suicidal for quite a while now. Almost ended my life during one of the worst times in my life. I’m doing better now. But amidst the pains in my memory I will never forget how this song was one of the things that were there with me through it all. I hope everyone here will be happier and feel better. We can do this. I’m wishing peace for all of us.

[igormkovalchuk]

you're a GENIUS. i can't stop listening to your album all day and i cried every time i did. during this song some crazy stuff was revealed to me from my past that made me understand so much and just couldn't believe how God was just opening that up to me as i was in tears.
some powerful stuff. been inspired all day by your creative music to the detail and also Keegan you're a genius too to every detail of the visual of the art of the album.
thank you for being you and vulnerable to write such a perfect album that has become my favorite thing i ever heard.

[ShabrinaAritonang]

My admiration towards this song will forever be unmatched.

[tiyasha]

Please let's make this famous
This is one of the most beautiful songs out there

[justSaadd]

My grandma passed away in 2016 and I visit her grave every month. I know she is in a better place. I just wanted to say her that I love her the most, but I couldn’t. I was late.

[doublej]

Crazy how it seems a lot of us go through similar life experiences. Hope everyone is hanging in there ❤

i found this song 2 years ago on accident in a random playlist. it was really perfectly out of place. it didn’t really fit in the playlist, but as a song it was perfect.
