Lyrics

I've been thinking bout the stuff that lives inside of my head

I've been reflecting on the thoughts in my mind.

And I've been thinking bout the stuff that I pushed under my bed

I've been contemplating the things I've ignored or avoided.

I wanna feel that what you say is true but I don't know

I want to believe what you say is true, but uncertainty persists.

Which one of us threw the first stone?

Questioning who initiated the conflict or disagreement.

Where can I really call my home?

Searching for a place I can truly call home.

I just wanted to live alone...

Expressing a desire for solitude, to live independently.

But now that everything's so complicated

Acknowledging that life has become complex.

And I love the things that I once hated

A shift in perspective, now appreciating things previously disliked.

Why do I keep doing this to myself?

Questioning repeated self-destructive behavior.

It was you who advocated

Attributing advocacy or support to someone else (possibly negatively impacting).

I'm just way too fascinated

Expressing intense fascination, possibly with a negative consequence.

I'll learn to contain myself

Committing to self-control and restraint.

I've been feeling like you flipped me upside down

Feeling disoriented or emotionally turned around by someone.

And I've been floating six feet up off the ground

Experiencing a heightened emotional state, elevated above normal concerns.

I've changed a lot this time around

Noting personal growth or transformation in the current situation.

Remember when

Reflecting on a time when things were clear and logical.

It all made sense

Recalling a past when everything made sense.

You're just the same

Observing that someone remains unchanged despite life's complications.

But now that everything's so complicated

Reiterating the theme of life's complexity and changing perspectives.

And I love the things that I once hated

Expressing newfound love for things previously disliked.

Why do I keep doing this to myself?

Questioning the repetition of self-inflicted challenges.

It was you who advocated

Assigning responsibility for a challenging situation to someone else.

I'm just way too fascinated

Expressing intense fascination despite potential negative consequences.

I'll learn to contain myself

Reaffirming the commitment to self-control and containment.

But now that everything's so complicated

Reiterating the theme of life's complexity and changing perspectives.

And I love the things that I once hated

Expressing newfound love for things previously disliked.

Why do I keep doing this to myself?

Questioning the repetition of self-inflicted challenges.

It was you who advocated

Assigning responsibility for a challenging situation to someone else.

I'm just way too fascinated

Expressing intense fascination despite potential negative consequences.

I'll learn to contain myself

Reaffirming the commitment to self-control and containment.
