Sick of Myself
Discovering Authenticity Amidst Ugliness
Lyrics
You don't know how you move me
You are unaware of the profound impact you have on me.
deconstruct me and consume me.
You break me down and completely absorb me.
I'm all used up, I'm out of luck I am star struck
I feel depleted, unlucky, and overwhelmed, captivated by something in your gaze.
By something in your eyes
There's a quality in your eyes that sustains my optimism.
that is keeping my hope alive.
That quality in your eyes is maintaining my hope for a positive outcome.
But I'm sick of myself when I look at you
I become weary of my own actions when I observe you because something about you is exceptionally beautiful and genuine.
something is beautiful and true.
There's an inherent beauty and truth in you that contrasts with a world full of falsehoods and ugliness.
World that's ugly and a lie
The world is deceitful and unattractive, making it challenging to find motivation to strive.
it's hard to even want to try.
The pervasive dishonesty and ugliness in the world make it difficult to summon the will to attempt anything.
I'm beginning to think
I'm starting to believe that perhaps you are unaware of the effect you have on me.
maybe you don't know.
There's a doubt emerging in me that you may not understand the impact of your presence.
I'll take a leave, the room to breathe
I'll take a step back, give myself space, and allow room for contemplation.
The choice to leave it
I choose to distance myself from a situation or relationship.
I'll throw away a chance at greatness just to make this
I'm willing to sacrifice a chance at achieving greatness just to make a particular dream a reality.
dream come into play
I'll discard an opportunity for success to bring this specific dream to fruition.
I don't know if I'll find a way
Uncertain if I will find a way forward in this pursuit.
'Cause I'm sick of myself when I look at you
My own self-disgust arises when I observe you because something about you is exceptionally beautiful and genuine.
something is beautiful and true.
There's an inherent beauty and truth in you that contrasts with a world full of falsehoods and ugliness.
World that's ugly and a lie
The world is deceitful and unattractive, making it challenging to find motivation to strive.
it's hard to even want to try.
The pervasive dishonesty and ugliness in the world make it difficult to summon the will to attempt anything.
I'm beginning to think
I'm starting to believe that perhaps you are unaware of the effect you have on me.
maybe you don't know.
There's a doubt emerging in me that you may not understand the impact of your presence.
I'm beginning to think
Doubts persist that you may not be fully aware of your impact on me.
maybe you don't know.
