Lyrics
You'd think by now I would've figured it out
Expressing surprise at not having figured things out by now despite time passing.
You'd think by now I would've left this town for good
Reflecting on the expectation of leaving the town permanently by now.
And never looked back
Choosing to move forward without looking back.
On a one way track
On a path with no return.
But here I am where it all began
Returning to the starting point where everything began.
200 miles from dry land
Feeling distant from safety or stability.
Riptide pulling me further in
Metaphorically being pulled deeper into a challenging situation.
And I'm not sure I can swim
Uncertain about the ability to handle the situation.
But I'll try
Determined to attempt finding a way out.
Oh I'll try
Reiterating the commitment to try.
To make it out alive
The aim is to survive despite difficulties.
Ask me if I'm ok
Inviting inquiry into emotional state.
Ask me if I'm fine
Suggesting a facade of being alright.
Ask me if it will get better somewhere down the line
Questioning if things will improve in the future.
I can't explain my stupid brain
Unable to rationalize one's own actions or thoughts.
I never thought I'd let it get this far
Surprised by allowing a situation to escalate to this extent.
But here we are
Acknowledging the present reality despite initial disbelief.
Yeah here we are
Accepting the current circumstances.
Walk into a party though you didn't want to go
Entering an event despite reluctance.
Force some conversation just to pass the time
Engaging in conversation merely to pass time.
Everybody's smiling so you fake it to fit in
Faking emotions to blend in with the environment.
Wait until tomorrow, go to sleep, and try again
Delaying resolution until the next day.
And I'll try
Continuing efforts despite difficulties.
Oh I'll try
Reiterating the commitment to persevere.
To make it out alive
The aim remains to survive despite challenges.
Ask me if I'm ok
Open to questioning about emotional well-being.
Ask me if I'm fine
Presenting a facade of being okay.
Ask me if it will get better somewhere down the line
Pondering if improvement will come in the future.
I can't explain my stupid brain
Difficulty in comprehending personal thoughts or actions.
I never thought I'd let it get this far
Surprise at letting a situation escalate this far.
But here we are
Acknowledging the reality despite initial disbelief.
Yeah here we are
Accepting the current situation.
But I'll be fine
Expressing confidence in eventual recovery.
I'll be fine
Reaffirming personal resilience.
I'll be fine
Repeated affirmation of being alright.
I'll be fine
Reiteration of personal strength despite challenges.
I'll be fine
Continued reassurance of being fine.
I'll be fine
Final reassurance of personal well-being.
