Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

I cry too much cause I’m repressed

The speaker cries excessively due to emotional suppression.

I’m too tired to get undressed

Feeling too exhausted to engage in the process of undressing.

Fatal wreck, scraps and decay

Describing a tragic accident with remnants and deterioration.

Please be kind, look away

Pleading for compassion and asking others to avert their gaze.


Oh release me

Expressing a strong desire to be liberated or set free, seeking solitude.

Release me, release me

-

Oh I need to be alone

-

Shut the door, start a fire

Mental imagery of shutting oneself off, battling intrusive thoughts, and confronting deception.

It’s in my head, it’s in my head

-

Pick the locks, burn the liars

-

It’s in my head, only in the head

-

Drown out the world

A plea to drown out the external world, feeling exposed and without a hiding place.

I’ve got nowhere to hide you drown me out

-

Drown out the world

-

I’ve got nowhere to hide you drown me out

-

And the anger

Addressing inner turmoil and anger, physically manifesting on the face and through pores, struggling with relentless thoughts.

I wear it on my face

-

Coming through my pores

-

And I’m breaking out

-

Cause I can’t get out

-

and I can’t stop the thoughts

-

They wear me out

-

Oh release me

Reiteration of the desire to be released and the need for solitude.

Release me, release me

-

Oh I need to be alone

-

Shut the door, start a fire

Continued imagery of isolation, mental battles, and the need to confront dishonesty.

It’s in my head, it’s in my head

-

Pick the locks, burn the liars

-

It’s in my head, only in the head

-

Drown out the world

Repetition of the plea to drown out the world and the challenges faced within the mind.


Oh release me

-

Release me, release me

-

Oh I need to be alone

-

Shut the door, start a fire

-

It’s in my head, it’s in my head

-

Pick the locks, burn the liars

-

It’s in my head, only in the head

-

Drown out the world

Final repetition of the need to drown out the world, emphasizing the absence of a hiding place.

I’ve got nowhere to hide you drown me out

-

Drown out the world

-

I’ve got nowhere to hide you drown me out
