Lyrics
Off the books
Engaging in activities that are not officially documented or recorded.
Every wage
Every form of compensation or payment for work.
Tail lights
The red lights at the back of a vehicle.
Pull away and I'm awaiting
Driving away, leaving behind anticipation for something unknown.
The strange
The unfamiliar or peculiar aspects of a situation.
In my place
In the location that represents me or where I belong.
Every thought
Every mental process or idea.
Gambles everything for a day
Risking everything for a temporary enjoyment or experience.
Cuz I'm tired at the thought of it leaving
Fatigued by the idea of the experience ending.
As I'm back and forth of a sublet mind
Mentally torn between conflicting thoughts or decisions.
And I'm lying in the corner of regret
Lying in a state of remorse in a neglected or overlooked position.
Tossin back and forth in a sublet mind, Even worse
Continuing to struggle mentally, and the situation is worsening.
Back and forth in a sublet mind
Repeatedly going back and forth in a transient state of mind.
Under stoned
Feeling emotionally numb or detached, potentially due to substance use.
By the lake
Next to a body of water, possibly reflecting on past experiences.
It's been done
Completed or concluded, leaving an emotional void.
Left empty
Abandoned or devoid of content or meaning.
And waitin
Waiting for something to happen or change.
Inhaling
Breathing in, possibly taking in the surroundings or atmosphere.
All my street
All the aspects of the street where I live.
As the brass ring seems so out of reach
An opportunity or goal that seems unattainable.
Cuz I'm tired at the thought of it leaving
Experiencing fatigue at the idea of a temporary situation ending.
As I'm back and forth of a sublet mind
Continuously oscillating between conflicting mental states.
And I'm lying in the corner of regret
In a state of regret, feeling cornered or trapped.
Tossin back and forth in a sublet mind, even worse
Continuing to struggle mentally, and the situation is deteriorating.
Last ring
The final or ultimate opportunity or achievement.
Carousel
A rotating platform of experiences, possibly repetitive or cyclical.
When times up
When the allotted time is over, a sudden and chaotic conclusion.
The horses come crashing
A sudden and intense disruption when something ends.
It's a long way
A lengthy journey back to a familiar place.
Back home
The return home feels like a debtor's cell, burdened or constrained.
A debtor's cell
A confined space associated with owing something.
Then the floor starts to spin out
The ground or reality starts to feel unstable or disorienting.
And I'm tired at the thought of it leaving
Fatigued by the idea of a temporary situation coming to an end.
As I'm back and forth of a sublet mind
Continuously oscillating between conflicting mental states.
And I'm lying in the corner of regret
In a state of regret, feeling cornered or trapped.
Tossin back and forth in a sublet mind, even worse
Continuing to struggle mentally, and the situation is deteriorating.
Back and forth in a sublet mind
Repeatedly going back and forth in a transient state of mind.
Back and forth in a sublet mind
-Back and forth in a sublet mind
-Back and forth in a sublet mind
