Lyrics
Up late at night all alone
Feeling awake and alone during late hours
Can't you see that I'm trying?
Expressing effort or attempting something
Trying so hard to hold on
Struggling to maintain control or stability
To the things I know
Holding onto familiar things or beliefs
But in the evening I will have to go
Anticipating a departure or change
What I most want is bad for me I know
Acknowledging desire for something harmful or negative
Out in the dark, shaking hands
Being in a shady or obscure place, making agreements
In the street, I'm drifting
Feeling aimless or disconnected in a public setting
Drifting away from my family towards my foes
Drifting away from loved ones towards adversaries
My mother told me you'll reap what you sow
Warning about consequences based on actions
What you most is want is bad for me you know
Recognizing the allure of something harmful
Back in my home late at night
Returning home during late hours, feeling detached
All alone, I'm flying
Experiencing a sense of freedom or elevation
Flying above all my troubles
Rising above personal problems or difficulties
My mind's a gull
Comparing the mind to a free-spirited bird
When I am happy my heart starts to slow
Noticing a slowdown of the heart during happiness
What I most want is bad for me I know
Acknowledging desire for something harmful or negative
Late in the morning I wake
Waking up lonely in the morning
All alone, I'm crying
Expressing sorrow or emotional pain
Crying for all of the people who love me so
Feeling sadness for the affection received
But when we get sad we know where to go
Knowing where to find solace during sadness
What we most want is bad for us we know
Acknowledging collective desire for something harmful
Flirtation
Referencing flirtatious behavior
Drug use
Mentioning drug use
Adultery
Referring to engaging in adultery
