Lyrics
Build me up to shut me down and stop me running
Feeling built up and then abruptly shut down, unable to escape.
Push and pull to bring you out but you keep gunning
Engaging in a back-and-forth dynamic, trying to bring someone out, but they persist in harmful actions.
Bury that knife into neck
A metaphorical act of betrayal or harm, using a knife to damage trust.
Turn our lives into a wreck
Transforming lives into chaos and disorder.
Keep on grinding til there’s nothing left
Persisting in a difficult situation until there is nothing left.
Ive been up and I been down
Experiencing highs and lows in life.
You get high then you get off and you check out
Engaging in a cycle of getting high, disconnecting, and checking out.
We’ve been running round ourselves in circles
Repeating patterns and going in circles within oneself.
Just falling over these hurdles again
Facing and stumbling over the same obstacles repeatedly.
The same old room with these strange familiar faces
Being in a familiar yet uncomfortable place with recognizable but strange faces.
Are all these people people I should know?
Questioning the familiarity of people and their significance.
I think that I should go before
Considering leaving before facing judgment or scrutiny.
Your gazes burn there holes straight through my soul
Avoiding intense and judgmental gazes that penetrate the soul.
Distort the atmosphere as I become a ghost
Creating a distorted atmosphere and feeling like a ghost.
Uh oh You’re ringing but I cant pick up my phone
Ignoring calls, possibly due to a sense of detachment.
I know Im so faded I’ve become a ghost
Feeling faded and detached, like a ghost.
I remember when I still believed
Recalling a time when belief and trust were still present.
Way back before you chose to leave
Reflecting on a past choice to leave and its impact.
No goodbyes hiding pieces on my sleeve
Experiencing the absence of goodbyes, carrying emotional baggage.
Left alone haunted by the ghost of me
Being left alone, haunted by one's own past actions.
Been too high too fucked up, faded
Having experienced intense highs, feeling jaded and worn out.
Dug myself into this rut, I’m jaded
Falling into a rut and feeling emotionally worn out.
Ask me how I’m doing I don’t try to cover up
Being open about struggles and not hiding emotions.
When the walls close in I think I’ve finally had enough
Feeling overwhelmed and contemplating reaching a breaking point.
The same old room with these strange familiar faces
Returning to the same uncomfortable place with familiar faces.
Are all these people people I should know?
Questioning the significance and familiarity of people in that place.
I think that I should go before
Contemplating leaving to avoid judgmental gazes.
Your gazes burn there holes straight through my soul
Avoiding intense gazes that penetrate the soul, leading to distortion.
Distort the atmosphere as I become a ghost
Experiencing a distorted atmosphere and feeling like a ghost.
Uh oh You’re ringing but I cant pick up my phone
Ignoring calls, possibly due to a sense of detachment.
I know Im so faded I’ve become a ghost
Feeling faded and detached, like a ghost.
