Lyrics
Wake up drunk
Expressing the feeling of waking up while intoxicated.
Don't know how but I'll get fucked up again
Anticipating getting intoxicated again despite uncertainty.
Trash my lungs
Engaging in harmful behavior, possibly smoking.
Running from the fact it'll catch up in the end
Avoiding facing a difficult truth that will catch up eventually.
Waste my life
Choosing a lifestyle that feels wasteful or unfulfilling.
Live every day like a Friday night
Living each day with a carefree and party-like attitude.
Pick up when I call cause I'm waiting outside
Desiring connection and waiting for someone to answer a call.
It's too cold and the waters too high
Feeling the harshness of circumstances, both emotionally and physically.
Wings grow
Suggesting personal growth or change.
Detach my halo
Symbolically removing a halo, possibly distancing from purity.
You make me stay low
Someone influencing the speaker to remain in a low state.
You are the weight on my ankles that's holding me back
Describing a person or situation as a hindrance to progress.
Don't say you hate me
Asking not to express hatred towards the speaker.
Don't call me baby
Rejecting affectionate terms, seeking distance.
Just leave me be
Preferring solitude and asking to be left alone.
And I know it's painful
Acknowledging emotional pain and difficulty.
Don't think I'll make it
Expressing doubt about the ability to endure the pain.
It's killing me
Highlighting the unbearable nature of the emotional struggle.
I lie awake and stare at my ceiling
Unable to sleep, contemplating life while looking at the ceiling.
I can't see the rain but I feel it
Sensing emotional turmoil even if not visibly expressed.
Bottle it can't say that I'm healing
Using a bottle metaphorically to indicate ineffective healing.
No one gives a fuck bout my feelings
Feeling a lack of concern from others about personal emotions.
Footprints on my back they walk on me my spine is snapped
Symbolic imagery of being mistreated and walked upon.
And someone's shouting record that
Being treated disrespectfully while someone records the situation.
Treating me like a doormat
Being treated poorly, akin to a doormat.
Wings grow
Repeating the idea of personal growth or change.
Detach my halo
Continuing the theme of distancing from purity or goodness.
You make me stay low
Someone influencing the speaker to remain in a low state, reiterated.
You are the weight on my ankles that's holding me back
Describing a hindrance to progress, reiterated.
Don't say you hate me
Asking not to express hatred towards the speaker, reiterated.
Don't call me baby
Rejecting affectionate terms, seeking distance, reiterated.
Just leave me be
Preferring solitude and asking to be left alone, reiterated.
And I know it's painful
Acknowledging emotional pain and difficulty, reiterated.
Don't think I'll make it
Expressing doubt about the ability to endure the pain, reiterated.
It's killing me
Highlighting the unbearable nature of the emotional struggle, reiterated.
It's killing me
Emphasizing the profound impact of the emotional turmoil on the speaker.
