The Death Of Me
Embracing Misery: Battling Inner Turmoil Through Libation
Lyrics
Do I have nothing good left to say?
Questioning if there's nothing positive left to express.
Do I need whiskey to start fueling my complaints?
Wondering if alcohol is necessary to begin voicing complaints.
People love to drink their troubles away
Observing how people often use drinking to escape their problems.
Sometimes I feel that I'd be better off that way
Feeling that resorting to drinking might improve life.
'Cause maybe then I could sleep at night
Thinking that drinking might facilitate better sleep and peace.
I wouldn't lie awake until the morning light
Unable to sleep due to worries, leading to staying awake until morning.
This is something that I'll never control
Recognizing the lack of control over certain aspects of life.
My nerves will be the death of me, I know
Acknowledging that anxiety or nerves might lead to one's downfall.
I know
Reiteration of acknowledging the situation.
I know
-So here's to living life miserable
Toasting to living a miserable life, almost sarcastically.
And here's to all the lonely stories that I've told
Recognizing and acknowledging personal tales of loneliness.
Maybe drinking wine will validate my sorrow
Speculating that consuming wine might give validation to sorrow.
Every man needs a muse and mine could be the bottle
Contemplating alcohol as a source of inspiration or comfort.
'Cause maybe then I could sleep at night
Repeating the desire for improved sleep through drinking.
I wouldn't lie awake until the morning light
Continued inability to sleep leading to staying awake till morning.
This is something that I'll never control
Reiterating the lack of control over certain circumstances.
My nerves will be the death of me, I know
Acknowledging again that anxiety might lead to self-destruction.
Finally, I could hope for a better day
Expressing hope for a better future or improved circumstances.
No longer holding on to all the things that cloud my mind
Letting go of troubling thoughts that cloud the mind.
Maybe then the weight of the world wouldn't seem so heavy
Believing that without these thoughts, life's burdens might lessen.
But then again I'll probably always feel this way
Realizing that despite hope, feelings of heaviness might persist.
At least I know I'll never sleep at night. (Sleep at night)
Accepting the inability to sleep as a consistent trait.
I'll always lie awake until the morning light. (Til the morning light)
Confirming the continuous struggle to stay awake until morning.
This is something that I'll never control
Reiterating the lack of control over certain life aspects.
My nerves will be the death of me
Reiterating the fear of nerves or anxiety causing personal demise.
My nerves will be the death of me
-My nerves will be the death of me, I know
Reinforcing the belief that anxiety might lead to self-destruction.
