Deep Sea Diver
Drowning in Self-Reflection: Deep Sea Diver's Emotionally Charged Journey
Lyrics
Hands were shaking, I was scared to death
Feeling extremely nervous and frightened
Skin was clammy, I was short of breath
Experiencing physical signs of anxiety
Shirt smelled like all my regrets
Shirt carries the scent of past mistakes and remorse
Shouldn't have had that seventh cigarette
Regretting a decision (smoking) that worsened the situation
It's a job seven days a week
Life feels consistently challenging and difficult
To make things harder than they have to be
Creating unnecessary complications in life
Making drama, my new nicotine
Drama has become a replacement for a former addiction (nicotine)
Sick and tired of this old routine
Exhausted and fed up with the repetitive nature of life
It's enough, the joke, that I, don't get
Frustration about not understanding a situation or joke
I'm a deep sea diver, holding my breath
Feeling like one is underwater, struggling, and holding back emotions
But it's plain, to see
Obvious to observers, despite personal denial
If you, know me
Understanding who I am if you truly know me
I'm a deep sea diver
Metaphorically a deep sea diver, immersed in difficult circumstances
And I'm in, too deep
Involved or invested too deeply in a problematic situation
Met a kid down in Bowling Green
Encounter with someone in a place named Bowling Green
Of course he tried to sell me ketamine
The person attempted to sell a drug called ketamine
Didn't tell him it was not my scene
Choosing not to engage in that drug scene
And promised him I'd try it next week
Making false assurances about trying the drug in the future
Why are we scared to say what's on our minds?
Questioning why honesty about thoughts and feelings is avoided
Through a rejection and some selfish pride
Difficulty in handling rejection and pride, leading to complications
Make things harder than they have to be
Creating unnecessary difficulty in life situations
Easier said than done for me
Admitting that doing things differently is harder than saying it
It's enough, the joke, that I, don't get
Frustration about not understanding a situation or joke (repeated)
I'm a deep sea diver, holding my breath
Metaphorically feeling submerged and struggling without knowing how to navigate
But it's plain, to see
Clear to others, despite personal denial or lack of acknowledgment
If you, know me
Understanding who I am if you truly know me (repeated)
I'm a deep sea diver
Metaphorically a deep sea diver, struggling with profound difficulties
And I'm in, too deep
Being overly involved or trapped in a challenging situation (repeated)
It's enough, the joke, that I, don't get
Frustration about not understanding a situation or joke (repeated)
I'm a deep sea diver, don't know how to swim
Feeling submerged and struggling despite lacking necessary skills (swimming metaphor)
But it's plain, to see
Obvious to observers, despite personal denial or lack of understanding
If you, know me
Understanding who I am if you truly know me (repeated)
I'm a deep sea diver
Metaphorically feeling submerged and overwhelmed by profound difficulties
And I'm in, too deep
Involved or trapped deeply in challenging circumstances (repeated)
