What To Do
Navigating Life's Crossroads: The Meaning Behind Ben Hulbert's 'What To Do'
Lyrics
I don't know why I feel so slow
I am uncertain about the reason for my sluggishness.
I don't know why I feel so low
I am unsure why I feel emotionally down.
I've got some things that I need to prepare for
I have responsibilities to get ready for.
But I can't seem to find an open door to go through
I can't find a clear opportunity or path to move forward.
I need to choose
I am emphasizing the importance of making a decision.
I need to choose
-I need to choose
-I need to choose
-Rainy weather I'm feeling the feathers through my pillow case
During rainy weather, I feel the softness of feathers in my pillowcase.
I'm lying in my bed doing absolutely nothing
I am in bed, not engaged in any activity.
Somebody come and scoop me up you know I need a bolt of energy
I need someone to uplift me with energy.
But today I'm feeling like my life was put on pause
Today, I feel like my life is temporarily halted.
And it's feeling like I'm failing to find what is the cause
I sense a failure in identifying the cause of my current state.
It's just one of those days
Repetition emphasizing that it's just one of those challenging days.
It's just one of those days
-It's just one of those days
-It's just one of those days
-Rainy weather I'm feeling the feathers through my pillow case
Similar to line 9, describing the sensation during rainy weather.
I'm lying in my bed doing absolutely nothing
Reiteration of being inactive in bed.
Somebody come and scoop me up you know I need a bolt of energy
Expressing the need for external assistance to regain energy.
What to do
Repetition of the question "What to do," indicating a sense of helplessness.
What to do
-What to do
-What to do
Continuation of the uncertainty about how to address the current situation.
