Should Be You
Seeking Redemption: Battling Demons in Anna Duerden's 'Should Be You'
Lyrics
One more drink
Expressing a desire for one more drink.
One more round
Desire for another round of drinks.
This is gonna put me in the ground
Recognizing the negative impact of excessive drinking on oneself.
I'm so tired of being myself
Feeling fatigued or worn out from being true to oneself.
I just wanna be somebody else (Somebody else)
Expressing a longing to escape one's identity and become someone else.
I've been wrecking it all, and I won't stop now
Acknowledging a pattern of self-destructive behavior with a commitment to continue.
I ain't gonna put this bottle down (This bottle down)
Refusing to stop drinking, using it as a coping mechanism.
I won't stop now
Reiterating the determination to persist in destructive behavior.
I ain't gonna put this bottle down
Committing to continue drinking despite potential consequences.
It should be you, you that I'm fighting for
Expressing that the person the singer is fighting for should be a specific "you."
(Should be you)
Repetition emphasizing that the person worth fighting for is "you."
It should be you, you that I'm fighting for
Reiterating that the person the singer is fighting for should be "you."
But I don't wanna fight no more
Declaring a desire to end the emotional struggle or conflict.
I know you think
Acknowledging that someone may be trying to help, but the singer doesn't want assistance.
You're trying to help
Expressing a lack of motivation to self-improve.
But, I don't even wanna help myself
Desiring to stay passive and not actively engage in self-improvement.
I just wanna lay here lately
Expressing a desire to remain inactive and undisturbed.
I just wanna let myself go crazy (Crazy)
Expressing a desire to let go of inhibitions and embrace chaos.
I've been wrecking it all and I won't stop now
Reaffirming a commitment to destructive behavior without intending to cease.
I ain't gonna put this bottle down (This bottle down)
Insisting on not putting the bottle down, indicating an ongoing reliance on alcohol.
I won't stop now
Reiterating the determination to persist in destructive behavior.
I ain't gonna put this bottle down
Committing to continue drinking despite potential consequences.
It should be you, you that I'm fighting for
Expressing that the person the singer is fighting for should be a specific "you."
(Should be you)
Repetition emphasizing that the person worth fighting for is "you."
It should be you, you that I'm fighting for
Reiterating that the person the singer is fighting for should be "you."
But I don't wanna fight no more
Declaring a desire to end the emotional struggle or conflict.
Should be you
Directly stating that the person should be "you."
(I let it go, I let it all go)
Letting go of something significant, possibly related to the emotional struggle.
(I lost it all, I lost it all though)
Acknowledging the loss of everything.
I've been wrecking it all, and I won't stop now
Reaffirming a commitment to destructive behavior without intending to cease.
I ain't gonna put this bottle down (This bottle down)
Insisting on not putting the bottle down, indicating an ongoing reliance on alcohol.
I won't stop now
