Lyrics

I think I've been in denial

Expressing realization and acknowledgment of being in denial.

Lately it's been hard to breathe

Describing difficulty in breathing, possibly due to stress or emotional strain.

People tell me that they love me

People express love, but the speaker struggles to believe or accept it.

Nothing they say I believe

Expressing skepticism and a lack of trust in what others say.

Maybe I've been burnt out

Suggesting a feeling of exhaustion or being emotionally drained.

Maybe I should slow down

Considering the need to slow down and take a break.

I tried to let go

Attempting to let go of something challenging or burdensome.

It feels like I'm alone

Feeling a sense of loneliness despite efforts to let go.

I hold onto myself now

Choosing self-preservation and self-focus in the face of challenges.

I could lay outside for hours

Finding solace in outdoor moments, possibly for relaxation.

At least I'm getting sleep

Acknowledging some improvement in sleep patterns.

I'm not where I wanna be but thank God I'm not where I used to be

Expressing gratitude for personal growth, despite not reaching desired goals.

I've been so close to dying

Revealing a past struggle with the risk of death.

but I'm still in one piece

Despite the challenges, the speaker remains whole and intact.

I'm not where I wanna be but thank God I'm not where I used to be

Reiterating gratitude for progress and personal development.

Feels like I move in slow motion

Feeling as if life is moving slowly, possibly indicating a sense of stagnation.

Some things look grey in my eyes

Perceiving certain things in a dull or uninteresting way.

At least I feel some emotion

Despite challenges, experiencing some emotional response.

I only feel numb sometimes

Admitting occasional numbness or emotional detachment.

Maybe I've been burnt out

Reiterating the feeling of being burnt out.

I tried so hard to slow down

Struggling to slow down despite efforts.

Can't fix it on my own

Recognizing the inability to fix everything independently.

Man I feel so alone

Expressing a deep sense of loneliness.

I could really use a hug now

Yearning for comfort and support, symbolized by a hug.

I could lay outside for hours

Finding solace in nature and outdoor moments.

At least I'm getting sleep

Acknowledging the importance of sufficient sleep for well-being.

I'm not where I wanna be but thank God I'm not where I used to be

Expressing gratitude for personal growth, despite unmet desires.

I've been so close to dying

Reflecting on past experiences of being close to death but surviving.

but I'm still in one piece

Despite challenges, remaining intact and resilient.

I'm not where I wanna be but thank God I'm not where I used to be

Reiterating gratitude for personal progress and development.

Time likes testing me

Acknowledging the testing nature of time.

But I keep protesting

Despite challenges, resisting and standing against adversity.

I'm just tryna get some space

Seeking personal space and detachment from troubles.

Let it fly over my head

Choosing to let difficulties pass without affecting the speaker.

If I'm pulled under the sea

Facing potential challenges but expressing a willingness to confront them.

If I get struck by lightning

Accepting the unpredictability of life's challenges.

At least I can say that I know that I tried my best

Emphasizing the importance of trying one's best in the face of challenges.

I know I tried my best

Affirming the effort put into facing challenges.

I scroll online for hours

Seeking distraction and engagement online during restless nights.

Some nights I hardly sleep

Experiencing difficulty in achieving restful sleep on some nights.

I'm not where I wanna be but thank God I'm not where I used to be

Expressing gratitude for personal growth despite unfulfilled desires.

I'm not afraid of crying

Not fearing the expression of emotions and vulnerability.

I'm barely in one piece

Despite challenges, remaining partially intact and resilient.

I'm not where I wanna be but thank God I'm not where I used to be

Reiterating gratitude for personal progress and development.
