Stuck
Unraveling the Maze of Lost Desires: Dave Monks' Stuck
Lyrics
I tried my best
I made an effort to do my best
I tried my best
I made an effort to do my best (repeated)
Ah don't you know I tried my best?
Expressing frustration that despite trying my best, it may not have been recognized
I lost myself
I feel like I've lost my true self
I lost myself
I feel like I've lost my true self (repeated)
I lost myself, I lost myself
Emphasizing the feeling of losing oneself
Lost in the river of fools
Metaphorically lost in a challenging or confusing situation (river of fools)
Cursing your wretched luck
Expressing frustration or discontent with one's luck
Lost in the river of fools
Reiteration of being lost in a difficult situation
And now you're
The consequence of being lost is being 'stuck'
Stuck
Emphasizing the state of being stuck
I tried to change
Attempting to bring about change in oneself or one's life
I triend to change
Attempting to bring about change (repeated)
Ah don't you know I tried to change?
Expressing frustration at the difficulty of making personal changes
Can't have it all
Acceptance that it's not possible to have everything
I guess you can't have it all
Recognizing the limitations in achieving all desires
I tried to change
Continuing efforts to bring about change
I tried to change
Continuing efforts to bring about change (repeated)
Lost in the river of fools
Metaphorically lost in a challenging or confusing situation (river of fools)
Cursing your wretched luck
Expressing frustration or discontent with one's luck (repeated)
Lost in the river of fools
Reiteration of being lost in a difficult situation (repeated)
Baby I'm not your friend
Denying a close or friendly relationship
Baby I'm not your friend
Reiterating the denial of a close or friendly relationship
Baby I'm not your friend
Emphasizing the lack of friendship
Baby I'm not your friend
Repeated emphasis on not being a friend
Lost in the river of fools
Metaphorically lost in a challenging or confusing situation (river of fools)
Cursing your wretched luck
Expressing frustration or discontent with one's luck (repeated)
Lost in the river of fools
Reiteration of being lost in a difficult situation (repeated)
And now you're
Reiterating the consequence of being lost - being 'stuck'
Stuck
Emphasizing the state of being stuck
