Child Of Device
Reckless Descent: Unraveling the Depths of a Troubled Heart
Lyrics
I got a heart too big to bear
I possess a heart burdened by overwhelming emotions.
Got too much pain to even care
I experience so much pain that I find it challenging to care.
Come 40 ounces, 40 winks
Seeking solace in 40 ounces and brief moments of sleep.
Come pass me down another drink
Requesting another alcoholic drink to numb the pain.
Baby, come on
An urging plea for a connection or companionship.
Body alive, but ah, my head
My body is alive, but my mind is in a state of numbness.
My head is dead
Expressing mental exhaustion and detachment.
I work all day into the night
I work tirelessly from day into the night.
I'm overworked and under-bite
Feeling overworked and physically fatigued.
Down double shot, double doublethink
Consuming alcohol to escape the burdens of overthinking.
I dribble down another drink
Continuing to drink to cope with stress.
Mama, yes
A term of endearment for the speaker's mother.
J-jumpin' Judy, Java Jive
Mentioning various activities and substances associated with stimulation.
I'm dyin' just to feel alive again
Expressing a desire to feel alive once again.
Nowal maybe, b-b-baby, talk me down
Seeking reassurance or comfort from someone.
I'm underpaid and upper-crust
Feeling undervalued despite being part of the upper class.
I'm head-to-toe in fuckin' moon dust baby, yeah
Covered in metaphorical "moon dust," indicating a sense of detachment or otherworldliness.
I'm broken-toed and steppin' cracks
Experiencing challenges and setbacks.
I'm turned around and doubled back, back, back
Facing confusion and retracing steps.
I'm burnin' up and windin' down
Feeling intense emotions and simultaneously winding down.
I'm gonna have a nervous breakdown
Expressing a heightened state of anxiety.
I'm passin' out on bended knees
Experiencing physical collapse in a vulnerable position.
I'm passin' out the new disease like AH, UH
Spreading a metaphorical "new disease" with a sense of urgency.
Come loosen up, go get a grip
Encouraging relaxation and regaining control.
Come read the braille upon my lips
Asking for understanding through tactile communication.
Mama, please
A plea for maternal support or understanding.
Two-finger shot, three-finger chase
Drinking gestures as a coping mechanism.
All cozied up inside a suitcase
Seeking comfort in a confined space.
Honey bunny, b-b-bread and butter now
Endearing terms for a loved one while requesting basic necessities.
I got a heart too big to bear
Reiterating the overwhelming nature of the speaker's emotions.
Confetti buried in my hair, yeah
Mentioning celebratory remnants in the hair, possibly indicating past joy.
Down double shot, double doublethink
Continuing the theme of using alcohol to cope with mental processes.
I down a tall one from the shrink
Consuming a tall drink, possibly from a mental health professional.
Mama, yes
A repeated plea for maternal support or understanding.
J-jumpin' Judy, Java Jive
Recalling lively and stimulating activities to regain a sense of vitality.
I'm dyin' just to feel alive again
Reiterating the desire to feel alive again.
Now maybe, b-b-baby, talk me down
A repeated plea for reassurance or comfort.
I'm a child of device, vice, vice
Declaring oneself as a product or creation of technological or vice-related influences, emphasizing a sense of detachment or dependence.
I'm a child of device, vice, vice
-I'm a child of device, vice, vice
-I'm a child of device, vice, vice
-I'm a child of device, vice, vice
-I'm a child of device, vice, vice
