Lyrics
My head is heavy and my lungs collapsing
Expressing physical and emotional burden, feeling overwhelmed.
My heart is beating at the bottom of my throat
Sensations of anxiety, heart pounding in a distressing manner.
Hands were steady 'til my world went up in smoke
Steadiness lost after a personal upheaval or crisis.
Or maybe that was me
Uncertainty about the cause of the turmoil.
Before I thought it couldn't get much colder
Reflecting on a past belief that things couldn't get worse.
Did I, did I set my world on fire
Questioning if the speaker initiated their own troubles.
Someone tell me they can save me
Pleading for help or reassurance from someone.
I've been swimming in the ashes daily
Metaphorically immersed in the aftermath of destruction.
There is a whirlwind inside of my head
Internal chaos, a tumultuous whirlwind of thoughts.
A miserable anchor that's crushing my chest
Feeling weighed down, burdened by emotional struggles.
Can you feel it
An inquiry about the listener's ability to empathize.
It's not enough
A sense of dissatisfaction, a desire for more.
It's all too much
Overwhelmed, unable to cope with the intensity of life.
Living so uncomfortably numb, uncomfortably numb
Living in a state of emotional detachment and discomfort.
Like a magnet I'm attracting all the worst things I could ever want
Magnetizing negativity and undesirable experiences.
My hands were steady, but my soul was waving a white flag
Outer composure contrasting with inner surrender.
But then again everything went wrong
Acknowledging a series of unfortunate events.
Before I thought it couldn't get much colder
Reflecting on a past belief that things couldn't get worse.
Did I, did I set my world on fire
Questioning if the speaker initiated their own troubles.
Someone tell me they can save me
Pleading for help or reassurance from someone.
I've been swimming in the ashes daily
Metaphorically immersed in the aftermath of destruction.
There is a whirlwind inside of my head
Internal chaos, a tumultuous whirlwind of thoughts.
A miserable anchor that's crushing my chest
Feeling weighed down, burdened by emotional struggles.
Can you feel it
An inquiry about the listener's ability to empathize.
It's not enough
A sense of dissatisfaction, a desire for more.
It's all too much
Overwhelmed, unable to cope with the intensity of life.
Living so uncomfortably numb, uncomfortably numb
Living in a state of emotional detachment and discomfort.
My head is heavy and my lungs collapsing
Expressing physical and emotional burden, feeling overwhelmed.
My heart is beating at the bottom of my throat
Sensations of anxiety, heart pounding in a distressing manner.
Hands were steady 'til my world went up in smoke
Steadiness lost after a personal upheaval or crisis.
My head is heavy and my lungs collapsing
Expressing physical and emotional burden, feeling overwhelmed.
My heart is beating at the bottom of my throat
Sensations of anxiety, heart pounding in a distressing manner.
Hands were steady 'til my world went up in smoke
Steadiness lost after a personal upheaval or crisis.
Someone tell me they can save me
Pleading for help or reassurance from someone.
I've been swimming in the ashes daily
Metaphorically immersed in the aftermath of destruction.
Waiting on the drugs to change me
Anticipating a change or escape through substance use.
There is a whirlwind inside of my head
Internal chaos, a tumultuous whirlwind of thoughts.
A miserable anchor that's crushing my chest
Feeling weighed down, burdened by emotional struggles.
Can you feel it
An inquiry about the listener's ability to empathize.
It's not enough
A sense of dissatisfaction, a desire for more.
It's all too much
Overwhelmed, unable to cope with the intensity of life.
Living so uncomfortably numb, uncomfortably numb
Living in a state of emotional detachment and discomfort.
