Lyrics

Someone shake me wake me up

Expressing a desire to be awakened or enlightened.

Tell me I've been dreaming

Questioning the reality of current experiences, seeking confirmation of being in a dream.

Tell me what's the meaning of these things that I keep seeing

Seeking understanding of the significance of observed things.

'Cause I'm starting to get tired of spinning in a spiral

Feeling exhausted and trapped in a repetitive and draining situation.

Held under the pressure like a gravitron

Under intense pressure, likened to the force experienced in a Gravitron ride.

So someone listen close and help me analyze this feeling

Requesting someone to closely examine and help analyze the emotional state.

I don't see in color and white noise is all I'm hearing

Experiencing a lack of clarity, possibly feeling emotionally numb or overwhelmed.

Yeah the doctor gave me pills and my momma's saying prayers for me

Receiving medical and spiritual support, but with no apparent positive results.

But nothing's working at all

Expressing frustration at the ineffectiveness of treatments.


I don't want to just fit in with the rest of them

Rejecting the idea of conforming to societal norms.

I've got too much on my mind to be wasting any time

Feeling preoccupied with significant thoughts, not willing to waste time.

Pretending to fit in with the rest of them

Refusing to pretend and conform to societal expectations.

I'd rather be original material

Expressing a preference for authenticity and uniqueness.


When I was a child I had fire in my belly

Recalling a time in childhood when passion and love were sufficient.

And love was all I needed to keep that fire steady

Love was once a stabilizing force for enthusiasm and dreams.

Yeah I use to be a dreamer

Reflecting on past optimism and a more idealistic outlook.

Hoper and believer

Identifying as a dreamer and believer in the past.

Now I need a natural phenomenon

Expressing a current need for a powerful and undeniable event or experience.

To prove my intuition isn't wrong

Seeking external validation to confirm personal intuition.


I don't want to just fit in with the rest of them

Reiterating a rejection of conformity and societal expectations.

I've got too much on my mind to be wasting any time

Stressing the importance of not wasting time on conformity.

Pretending to fit in with the rest of them

Continuing to resist societal expectations and pretense.

I'd rather be original material

Reaffirming a preference for authenticity and uniqueness.


Yeah I know myself too well it's all a show and tell

Acknowledging self-awareness about putting on a facade for others.

""Why cant you be yourself man?""

Quoting an external voice questioning the need for pretense.

""Why can't you be yourself?""

Repeating the question, emphasizing the importance of being genuine.


I don't want to just fit in with the rest of them

Reiterating the rejection of conformity and societal norms.

I've got too much on my mind to be wasting any time

Emphasizing the need to prioritize personal thoughts over societal expectations.

Pretending to fit in with the rest of them

Continuing to resist societal expectations and pretense.

I'd rather be original material for once

Reaffirming a preference for authenticity and uniqueness.
