Lyrics
It's seven AM
Refers to the time of day, early morning.
So maybe it's time that I leave
Considering leaving a situation or place.
This happened again
Expressing a recurring problem or event.
Why does this keep happening to me? (Why's this keep happening to me?)
Questioning why a particular issue keeps happening.
It's the morning commute, chock-a-block on the tube
Describing a crowded morning commute on the subway.
I got some funny looks from the boys in the suits
Receiving judgmental looks from formally dressed individuals.
Need something for my head right now
Expressing a need for something to alleviate discomfort or stress.
Think I need my bed right now, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
Feeling the urge to go back to bed for rest.
Better call in sick, got a job I can't lose
Considering calling in sick to avoid jeopardizing employment.
Rehearsing my perfectly scripted excuse
Preparing a well-thought-out excuse for missing work.
Need something for my mood right now
Seeking something to improve mood and avoid facing unpleasant realities.
Don't wanna face no home truths (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Expressing a desire to avoid confronting uncomfortable truths.
Forever I make the same mistakes
Reflecting on a pattern of repeating the same errors.
I get up, get out, get over it
Getting up and moving on from past mistakes.
Just give me some space
Requesting personal space or freedom.
Forever I'm always running late
Continuing to be consistently late for commitments.
Will you wait up for me?
Asking if someone will wait despite perpetual tardiness.
It's seven AM
Repeating the early morning time reference.
So maybe it's time that I dip
Considering leaving once again.
This happened again
Reiterating the occurrence of a problematic situation.
Last night is a blur, what a trip (what a trip, what a trip)
Recalling a hazy or memorable night out.
Tried to make a move, spilt my drink on my shoes
Describing a failed attempt at making a romantic move.
Didn't get lucky, some you win, some you lose
Experiencing mixed outcomes in social situations.
Feeling kinda dead right now
Feeling emotionally drained or exhausted.
Hanging from a thread right now, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
Emphasizing a precarious emotional state.
Felt my face melt, stood alone in the queue
Recalling a disorienting experience at a queue or line.
I was east feeling west, nothing better to do
Feeling out of place and directionless.
Need something for my head right now
Expressing a need for something to alleviate discomfort or stress.
Don't wanna face the music (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Avoiding facing the consequences or realities of a situation.
Forever I make the same mistakes
Reflecting on a pattern of repeating the same errors.
I get up, get out, get over it
Getting up and moving on from past mistakes.
Just give me some space
Requesting personal space or freedom.
Forever I'm always running late
Continuing to be consistently late for commitments.
Will you wait up for me?
Asking if someone will wait despite perpetual tardiness.
Let me set the record straight
Clarifying or correcting misconceptions about oneself.
I've seen myself on better days
Acknowledging past better days, possibly hinting at current struggles.
And I feel kinda weird
Expressing a sense of discomfort or unease.
Sometimes everything can escalate
Noting that situations can escalate unexpectedly.
I've seen myself in better states
Acknowledging past better states, possibly contrasting with the present.
So when the party's done
Anticipating the end of a party and the arrival of a new day.
Make way for the morning sun
Welcoming the morning sun after a night of revelry.
