Lyrics

It's not for attention

Expressing that the action is not seeking attention.

It's not for your pity

Clarifying it's not about seeking pity from others.

I'm tired of myself

Feeling exhausted or fed up with oneself.

And sick of feeling shitty

Expressing being tired of feeling terrible or low.

Wont answer your questions

Declining to respond to inquiries or queries.

Not after your mercy

Not seeking or expecting compassion.

Just need a way out

Desiring an escape from a distressing mindset.

Of this awful mentality

Wanting to break free from a negative mentality.


Ivory cane

Referencing an ivory cane, symbolizing authority or control.

Which you wield so desperately

Someone wielding power or control desperately.

Don't talk to me

Requesting not to engage in conversation.

And don't speak of inability

Asking not to discuss or mention incapability.

Scholarly reasons

Mentioning reasons that are scholarly but disregarding personal care.

You care not about me

Implying a lack of genuine concern or care from another person.

And I am just a rat

Feeling like an object of study or observation without empathy.

I'm your brand new case study

Being portrayed as a fresh subject for analysis.


Hopefully I can get out of this space

Hoping to find a way out of the current mental state or situation.

Everything is white

Describing an environment filled with whiteness, possibly representing sterility or oppression.

It blinds like artillery

Comparing the intensity of whiteness to the blinding effect of artillery.

Tiny gray lady

Referring to someone small or insignificant who shouldn't judge.

Don't look at my flaws

Asking not to focus on personal shortcomings.

Don't shout them right back

Requesting not to vocalize or highlight one's flaws.

Ill stumble ill fall

Expressing a likelihood of making mistakes or faltering.

I say that I'm busy

Claiming to be occupied, though not actually busy.

But I'm not at all

Admitting that being busy is not the case.

Its never that easy

Acknowledging that it's not simple or straightforward.

I don't have the gall

Expressing a lack of courage or boldness.

Ill quit at the first chance

Planning to quit or escape at the earliest opportunity.

Ill make for the door

Intending to leave abruptly through a door.

And you'll watch it happen

Imagining others observing the departure with shock or horror.

And you'll watch appalled

Anticipating the shocked reaction of onlookers during the departure.
