Broken Man
Breaking Free: Embracing Self-Discovery and Redemption
Lyrics
I want to scream until no sound comes out
I feel the need to express my emotions intensely, to the point of wanting to scream without making any sound.
And you've learned your lesson
Someone has experienced the consequences of their actions and learned a lesson.
I want to swallow these pills to get to sleep
Expressing a desire to escape from reality by taking sleeping pills, possibly to avoid negative judgments.
So I don't have to make a bad impression
Wishing to avoid making a negative impact on others and trying to maintain a positive image.
I need to start to be myself
The need to embrace one's true self, tired of pretending to be someone else.
'Cause I'm sick of everybody else
Frustration with conformity and a desire to break free from societal expectations.
I won't let you bring me down
Refusing to let external factors or individuals negatively influence one's emotions.
It's here and now, I'm breaking out
Asserting the decision to break free from limitations or constraints in the present moment.
I will learn to love again
Expressing a commitment to love again despite past difficulties.
But I will stand a broken man
Despite the commitment, acknowledging that the speaker remains emotionally damaged or fragile.
I wanna run, but only far enough to make you miss me
Expressing a desire to create distance, enough to be missed by someone.
I wanna take back all the shit that I have done
Wishing to undo past mistakes and take responsibility for one's actions.
But I guess you were better off without me
Acknowledging that the other person may be better off without the speaker.
I need to start to be myself
Reiterating the need to be authentic and true to oneself.
'Cause I'm sick of everybody else
Expressing frustration with the expectations or influence of others.
I won't let you bring me down
Remaining resilient and not allowing external forces to lower one's emotional state.
It's here and now, I'm breaking out
Decisively breaking free from limitations in the present moment.
I will learn to love again
Reaffirming the commitment to love again despite challenges.
But I will stand a broken man
Emphasizing that, despite the commitment, the speaker acknowledges being emotionally broken.
I took one big step and I looked away
Reflecting on missed opportunities and feeling inadequate or disliked by others.
And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say
-I'm always too late
-You never got your story straight
-I'm always up late
-I think I'm everything you hate
-I took one big step and I looked away
Repetition of the theme of missed opportunities and self-perceived flaws.
And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say
-I'm always too late
-You never got your story straight
-I'm always up late
-I think I'm everything you hate
-I took one big step and I looked away
Continued reflection on missed chances and a negative self-perception.
And then I thought of all the things that I wanted to say
-I'm always too late
-You never got your story straight
-I'm always up late
-I think I'm everything you hate
-I won't let you bring me down
Reaffirming resilience and determination to break free, with a commitment to love again despite past hardships.
It's here and now, I'm breaking out
-I will learn to love again
-But I will stand a broken man
-I won't let you bring me down
Repetition of the theme of breaking free, learning to love again, and acknowledging emotional brokenness.
It's here and now, I'm breaking out
-I will learn to love again
-But I will stand a broken man
