Be the first to rate this song

Lyrics

Oh here we are, falling over our next step

Reflecting on the current situation, facing challenges in progress.

Like a teenager changing their best friends

Comparing the instability to a teenager changing friendships.

And it's just not as it used to be

Expressing the change and nostalgia for the past.

Like your old haunts fading in your favorite city

Noting the fading of familiar places in a beloved city.

And I love waking up to these overcast rainy days

Appreciating the comfort of waking up to rainy days.

That alleviates the pressure and the need for change

Rainy days relieve pressure and reduce the urge for change.

And we keep pushing that boulder up the hill

Metaphorically pushing through challenges, likened to a boulder uphill.

But we're always moving even when we stay still

Highlighting continuous progress even when seemingly still.

We stay still

Emphasizing the paradox of staying still while always moving.


Some say I'm chasing a thrill

Repetition suggesting differing opinions on the pursuit of excitement.

Some say I'm chasing a thrill

-

Some say I'm chasing a thrill

-

But I'm just keeping it real

Claiming honesty in personal pursuits rather than thrill-chasing.


I spend too much time trying to make everything rhyme

Spending excessive time trying to create harmony amid imperfections.

Making harmony over my ugly side

Seeking balance between the artistic and flawed aspects of oneself.

Cuz we're all hypocrites just looking for a hit

Acknowledging universal hypocrisy in the pursuit of success.

It's like having a smoke but never inhaling it

Comparing certain actions to the superficiality of smoking without inhaling.

We use to be the boys in bands of sex drugs Rock N Roll

Reflecting on a past of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll with a change to self-control.

Now we're coming down and shooting for self control

Transitioning from a wild past to a more restrained present.

Am I fading like your stars that burned so bright

Questioning personal relevance and impact over time.

Thousands of years ago now only reaching your eyes?

Metaphorically exploring the fading of one's influence or legacy.


Some say I'm chasing a thrill

Reiteration of varying opinions on the pursuit of excitement.

Some say I'm chasing a thrill

-

Some say I'm chasing a thrill

-

But I'm just keeping it real

Reasserting authenticity in personal expression rather than thrill-seeking.


Because I fantasize all day, all day

Expressing a tendency to daydream or escape into fantasies.

Yeah I fantasize all day, all day

-

Some say I'm chasing a thrill

Reiteration of diverse opinions regarding the pursuit of thrill.

Some say I'm chasing a thrill

-

But I'm just keeping it real

-

Just keeping it real

Reaffirming sincerity in personal expression rather than thrill-chasing.
