yesterday
Unveiling Hidden Struggles: Boywithahalo's Reflection in 'Yesterday'
Lyrics
Yesterday I caught myself
Reflecting on a past moment of self-awareness
But nobody knows
Keeping personal struggles hidden from others
And just today I stopped myself
Recently decided to refrain from a certain action
But anything goes
Accepting a more carefree attitude towards life
Oh yesterday I caught myself
Recalling another instance of self-awareness
But anything goes
Embracing a nonchalant approach to life
And just today I stopped myself
Choosing to stop a particular behavior recently
But nobody knows
Keeping personal struggles concealed from others
I don't feel like being outside with all those people screaming at me
Expressing discomfort with public interactions
For a while I've put up a fight, but now I think how I should leave
Contemplating the idea of leaving after enduring a struggle
Wanna get another life
Desiring a new life or a change
But I'm scared of losing mine
Fearful of the potential loss associated with change
Will I get another try if I go through it?
Questioning the possibility of a second chance
I want to see the world, but can't see my own face
Expressing a desire to explore the world but feeling disconnected
Just push it down and pick it up, switch it up
Dealing with inner conflicts, trying to adapt or change
Yesterday I caught myself
Repeating the theme of self-awareness from the past
But nobody knows
Keeping personal struggles hidden from others
And just today I stopped myself
Recently decided to refrain from a certain action
But anything goes
Accepting a more carefree attitude towards life
Oh yesterday I caught myself
Recalling another instance of self-awareness
But anything goes
Embracing a nonchalant approach to life
And just today I stopped myself
Choosing to stop a particular behavior recently
But nobody knows
Keeping personal struggles concealed from others
He puts another smile on
Describing someone who wears a smile for others but takes it off when alone
He takes it off when alone
Indicating a contrast in public and private emotions
He hums this song in silence
Using a song to express emotions that are not openly shared
And we all play along
Highlighting the collective participation in maintaining a facade
Yesterday I caught myself
Repeating the theme of self-awareness from the past
But nobody knows
Keeping personal struggles hidden from others
And just today I stopped myself
Recently decided to refrain from a certain action
But anything goes
Accepting a more carefree attitude towards life
Oh yesterday I caught myself
Recalling another instance of self-awareness
But anything goes
Embracing a nonchalant approach to life
And just today I stopped myself
Choosing to stop a particular behavior recently
But nobody knows
Keeping personal struggles concealed from others
