Lyrics
Sometimes I'm sitting on the corner of my bed
Sometimes, the speaker reflects while sitting on the corner of their bed.
Thinking of the past and all the so called
Contemplating the past and the so-called better times.
Better times I had
Expressing nostalgia for times that were considered better.
Ironically these happy memories make me sad
The irony of happy memories making the speaker feel sad.
I ask myself if I'm already
The speaker questions if they are already living as if they are dead.
Living like I'm dead
Expressing a sense of emotional numbness or detachment from life.
I can't go on this way
Feeling unable to continue in the current emotional state.
I can't go on
Reiteration of the emotional struggle and inability to move forward.
On this way
-I can't go on
Continuing the theme of emotional stagnation.
I sit and think of all the dearest friends I have
Reflecting on dear friends and the speaker's actions on their birthdays.
Sending congrats to their birthdays
Acknowledging a lack of communication with friends despite good intentions.
But never call 'em back
-I sit in silence but the voices in my head
The speaker listens to the voices in their head while in silence.
Telling me that I'm about to be
The internal voices suggest the speaker is heading towards a state of emotional numbness.
Living like I'm dead
Reiterating the fear of living as if emotionally dead.
I can't go on this way
Expressing an inability to continue in the current emotional state.
I can't go on
Continuing the theme of emotional struggle and inability to move forward.
On this way
-I can't go on
-On this way
-I can't go on
-On this way
-I can't go on
Reiterating the speaker's inability to continue.
I'm chasing milestones but the bigger that I get
Pursuing significant achievements, but realizing a longing for simple joys.
The more I'm longing for the small things
The more successful the speaker becomes, the more they miss the small pleasures in life.
In my life instead
Expressing a desire for the smaller, meaningful aspects of life.
I'm blinded by that carrot in front of me
Feeling blinded by the pursuit of larger goals.
Showing me that there is no doubt I'm almost
Being shown that there is no doubt the speaker is almost emotionally dead.
Living like I'm dead
Reiterating the fear of living as if emotionally dead.
I can't go on this way
Expressing an inability to continue in the current emotional state.
I can't go on
Continuing the theme of emotional struggle and inability to move forward.
On this way
-I can't go on
-On this way
-I can't go on
-On this way
-I can't go on
-I can't go on
