Bleached Reflections: A Journey Through Weariness and Liberation
Lyrics
I’m so tired, all the time
I constantly feel exhausted.
And I think about dying, by myself
I contemplate death, but without the intent to act on it.
But I’m not suicidal, just a little underwhelmed
Feeling somewhat disappointed or unsatisfied, not suicidal.
And you left around three and didn’t come back
Someone departed around 3 and didn’t return.
But when you finally called, I couldn’t talk back
When they finally reached out, I couldn't respond.
But you knew that
The person was aware of my inability to respond.
And I bleached my hair, and still look like shit
I dyed my hair but still feel unattractive.
I guess I haven’t got, the face for it
Feeling like my appearance doesn’t suit the change.
But you knew that
The person knew my dissatisfaction with my looks.
So let’s leave, let’s run, let’s drive, let’s fly
Let’s escape this situation by any means.
Away
Suggesting a desire to flee from current circumstances.
Because this worlds too small, too small
Expressing that the world feels confining.
For me
Feeling restricted within the world's confines.
So I didn’t go in to work today
Didn’t go to work and left abruptly.
And I cut my losses and ran away
Accepted losses and fled from the situation.
And I killed my bosses
Metaphorically freed oneself from authority figures.
Look at me go
An expression of accomplishment and independence.
And when I was running, I saw your face because
Seeing the person's face while escaping.
You’re the one that scares me, the most I think
Feeling intimidated or frightened by that person.
But you knew that
The person was aware of my fear of them.
So let’s leave, let’s run, let’s drive, let’s fly
Reiterating the desire to escape.
Away
Reiterating the urge to run away from current limitations.
Because this worlds too small, too small
Feeling confined and restricted by the world.
For me
Sense of being too big or vast for this confining world.
So let’s leave, let’s run, let’s drive, let’s fly
Repetition emphasizing the desire to escape.
Away
Reiteration of feeling restricted within the world.
Because this worlds too small, too small
Feeling constrained and suffocated by the world.
For me
Reiterating feeling too big for this limited world.
I’m so tired, all the time
Continued exhaustion or fatigue.
And I think about dying, by myself
Repeated contemplation of death without intent.
But I’m not suicidal, just a little underwhelmed
Similar to line 3, feeling dissatisfied but not suicidal.
And I bleached my hair and still look like shit
Reiteration of feeling unattractive despite changing appearance.
I guess I haven’t got the face for it
Feeling appearance doesn’t match expectations.
But you knew that
The person was aware of my dissatisfaction with my appearance.
