Lyrics

Don't rain on my

Don't let negativity affect my mood or mindset.

(Don't rain on my)

(Reiteration) Emphasizing the desire to avoid negativity.


I've gone back and forth

Expressing inner conflict and indecision.

On the decision to stay put

Reflecting on the struggle between staying and leaving.

Or leave on a dime.

Considering the option to leave suddenly and unexpectedly.

How quickly life seems to change for us (for us).

Noting the rapid and unpredictable changes in life.


Breathe in, don't flatline.

Advising oneself to breathe and avoid stagnation or decline.

The choice is mine to live my life.

Acknowledging personal responsibility for life choices.

So breathe in, don't flatline.

Reiterating the importance of staying alive and engaged.


If I leave now (if I leave now),

Contemplating the consequences of leaving.

There's so much more that I could find.

Believing there are greater opportunities elsewhere.

So breathe in, don't flatline.

Reemphasizing the need to stay alive and avoid stagnation.


How will I know

Pondering uncertainty about personal control in life.

If I'm in control?

Expressing uncertainty about being in control.

I'll never know

Highlighting the difficulty of knowing without taking risks.

Until I let go.

Realizing self-discovery requires letting go of control.


I won't wast my time.

Rejecting the idea of wasting time on indecision.

I've made my mind.

Confirming a resolved mindset and decision.

And just like that I'm making the hardest decision that I'll ever have to make.

Acknowledging the difficulty of the upcoming decision.
