Wrong Way
Navigating Shadows: Apollo The Realist's Tale of Lost Paths
Lyrics
I used to smile all the time, now you're always on my mind
The speaker used to be cheerful, but now thoughts of someone are persistent.
I've been dying deep inside, trying to put the pain aside
The speaker is experiencing internal suffering and is attempting to hide the pain.
Yeah, the pressure's been applied, I've been feeling petrified
Feeling overwhelmed, the speaker is under significant stress.
Can't deny that I'm confined, can't escape from my demise
Acknowledging being trapped and unable to avoid a downfall.
I used to smile all the time, now you're always on my mind
Reiteration of the impact someone has on the speaker's thoughts.
I've been dying deep inside, trying to put the pain aside
Continued inner turmoil while trying to cope with emotional pain.
Yeah, the pressure's been applied, I've been feeling petrified
Highlighting the persistent and distressing pressure the speaker is facing.
Can't deny that I'm confined, can't escape from my demise
Admitting to feeling confined with no escape from a negative fate.
I'm a long way from home, I'm a long way from home
Expressing a physical and emotional distance from a place called "home."
Don't know where to go, don't know where to go
Feeling lost and uncertain about the right direction.
Probably took the wrong road, probably took the wrong road
Suspecting that a wrong choice was made in life.
Losing time, losing hope, losing time, losing hope
Sense of losing time and hope, emphasizing a feeling of despair.
Lost sense of direction, lost sense of direction
Experiencing a loss of purpose or guidance in life.
Misconception of perception, misconception of perception
Misunderstanding and distorted perception of reality.
Feeling pressed and defensive, feeling pressed and defensive
Feeling defensive and pressured in response to external factors.
Getting tense and aggressive, getting tense and aggressive
Becoming increasingly agitated and hostile under stress.
I don't know what to do, I don't know what to do
Expressing confusion and a lack of clear solutions to current problems.
Trying to make the right move, trying to make the right move
Struggling to make the right choices in a difficult situation.
But I'm left with no clue, but I'm left with no clue
Feeling clueless and uncertain about the next steps in life.
Been trying to play it smooth, it's not a game I can lose
Attempting to navigate life smoothly, acknowledging the stakes.
Don't give a fuck when I'm blue, getting drunk, sipping brew
Indifference towards negative emotions when feeling down, resorting to coping mechanisms like alcohol.
Doing drugs, getting loose, feeling dumb when I do
Engaging in self-destructive behaviors, possibly as a response to pain.
Getting used to bad news, living life without you
Adapting to a life filled with adversity and negativity.
Giving up, that's the truth, I'm giving up, that's the truth
Admitting to giving up, emphasizing a sense of hopelessness.
I used to smile all the time, now you're always on my mind
Repeating the theme of persistent thoughts about someone affecting the speaker's mood.
I've been dying deep inside, trying to put the pain aside
Continuing to grapple with inner pain, attempting to cope.
Yeah, the pressure's been applied, I've been feeling petrified
Reiterating the intense external pressure causing fear and anxiety.
Can't deny that I'm confined, can't escape from my demise
Acknowledging the inability to escape from a challenging situation.
I used to smile all the time, now you're always on my mind
Restating the impact of someone on the speaker's constant thoughts.
I've been dying deep inside, trying to put the pain aside
Continuing the struggle with internal suffering and the attempt to cope.
Yeah, the pressure's been applied, I've been feeling petrified
Reiterating the overwhelming pressure and fear the speaker is facing.
Can't deny that I'm confined, can't escape from my demise
Acknowledging the feeling of being trapped with no way to avoid a negative fate.
Can't escape from my demise
Emphasizing the inescapability of the speaker's downfall or demise.
