James Blake: The Wilhelm Scream Meaning
The Wilhelm Scream Lyrics
I don't know about my dreamin' anymore.

James Blake is trying to express that he is unsure of his dreams, his love or his future in that case. He wants to just fall in, fall in, fall in, and give up.

Great song, and there are a lot of interpretations.
