Not Who I Am
Unveiling Struggles: Finding Freedom in 'Not Who I Am'
Lyrics
Just wake up
Expressing the act of waking up.
I cannot make it off the ground
Feeling unable to lift oneself off the ground, possibly indicating emotional or physical struggle.
The tide is high
Describing a high tide, a metaphor for challenging times or emotions.
The waves are breaking on your town
Symbolizing the impact of difficulties affecting a community or a person.
The beast is puking out the sound
Characterizing a disturbing or unpleasant sound or situation.
Please run away and save your life
Advising someone to escape and preserve their life.
You should let the water run
Suggesting allowing a natural process, possibly purification or resolution, to occur.
Until it cleans itself inside
Encouraging patience until a self-cleaning process completes.
Look into my eyes
Inviting a deep look into the speaker's eyes, possibly seeking understanding or connection.
Please remember me
Requesting the listener to remember the speaker.
I am tangled now
Acknowledging being entangled in a situation.
But I'm fighting to get free
Expressing a struggle for freedom from a challenging circumstance.
This is not
Emphasizing a departure from the speaker's true self.
This is not who I am
Reiterating a deviation from the speaker's authentic identity.
I'm trying hard
Conveying effort and difficulty in the speaker's actions.
It's more than I can carry now
Indicating a burden that surpasses the speaker's capacity.
I wanna make her smile
Expressing a desire to bring happiness to someone.
With her candy I'll be fine
Associating positivity and well-being with a metaphorical "candy."
She'll be sleeping for a while
Imagining a period of peace when someone is resting.
And will stop chasing me down
Suggesting relief from pursuit or pressure when the person is not chasing.
If I drown again tonight
Connecting drowning with feeling paralyzed, possibly in a difficult situation.
It's cause I'm still paralysed
Attributing drowning to an ongoing sense of paralysis.
Look into my eyes
Repeating the plea for recognition and remembrance.
Please remember me
Reiterating entanglement but expressing determination to break free.
I'm still tangled now
Stating the ongoing struggle with being entangled.
But I'm fighting to get free
Continuing the fight for freedom despite challenges.
This is not
Emphasizing a continued departure from the speaker's true self.
This is not who I am
Reaffirming a deviation from the speaker's authentic identity.
I can't wait
Expressing eagerness for a future without encountering a specific person.
To never see your face again
Linking the inability to speak with being silenced by external forces like rain.
If my lips don't move today
Reiterating a departure from the speaker's true self due to external factors.
They are silenced by the rain
Highlighting a metaphorical silence caused by the rain.
This is not
Restating a continued deviation from the speaker's authentic identity.
This is not who I am
Affirming a persistent departure from the speaker's true self.
This is not
Repeating the theme of a continued deviation from the authentic identity.
This is not who I am
Reaffirming the persistent departure from the speaker's true self.
This is not
Concluding the assertion that the current state is not the true identity of the speaker.
