Lyrics
I was ready
I was prepared emotionally or mentally.
To start the chase
Ready to engage in pursuing something.
Started training
Began the process of learning or conditioning.
Before I knew there wasn't a race
Realized there was no competition or challenge.
I'm so done
Feeling exhausted or emotionally drained.
You can see it on my face
Emotional state evident on facial expression.
I'm down, and out
Feeling defeated and withdrawn.
Now all of life's a darkened haze
Life appears confusing and unclear.
I can't wake up
Unable or unwilling to face reality.
I don't want to
Desire to remain in a dreamlike state.
Cuz when I dream
In dreams, the person is connected with someone special.
I am with you
Continuing the theme of a deep connection in dreams.
I can't wake up
Resistance to waking up, avoiding reality.
I don't want to
Expressing a reluctance to face the truth.
Cuz when I dream
Highlighting the comfort found in dreams.
I am with you
Reiteration of the emotional connection in dreams.
They tell me to
Advice or pressure to regain mental stability.
Find sanity
Others may not understand the internal stability.
They just don't know
Self-perceived sanity despite external opinions.
I'm sane to me
Asserting personal understanding of mental well-being.
It's only right
Justifying the act of expressing thoughts now.
I write this now
Claiming not to be too difficult to comprehend.
I'm not too hard
Presenting oneself as easily understood.
To figure out
Implied simplicity in understanding the situation.
It's been a year
Reflecting on the passage of time since a significant event.
Since this began
Indicating the duration of a challenging period.
I stand right here
Current standing or emotional state is unchanged.
An unchanged man
Asserting a consistent personal identity.
I don't wanna hold you down cuz
Expressing a desire not to hinder someone's progress.
I just wanna see you leave the ground
Wishing for someone to achieve personal growth.
And I know you'll do that with him
Acknowledging that the person will find happiness with someone else.
And you'll leave me standing
Anticipating being left behind or abandoned.
Alone in the sunset
Facing the prospect of being alone in a melancholic state.
