Almost Happy
Navigating Chaos: The Almost Happy Struggle
Lyrics
Whatever I touch I fuck it up, yeah
Feeling a pattern of consistently ruining everything I come in contact with.
A walking disaster stuck in a rut, yeah
Describing oneself as a person who brings chaos and is currently stuck in a negative situation.
Wish I had the sense to leave it alone
Expressing a desire to have the wisdom to avoid troublesome situations.
But wherever there's chaos I am at home
Identifying with chaos and suggesting a comfort or familiarity in disorder.
Whatever I see I just can't believe
Struggling to believe in positive or stable things despite witnessing them.
You've got it together but I'm dying to breathe
Comparing oneself to someone who seems well put together but expressing a suffocating feeling.
Wish I had the guts to tell you the truth
Wishing for the courage to reveal an undisclosed truth.
But I am a coward through and through
Acknowledging a cowardly nature, implying difficulty in facing challenges or being truthful.
It's almost like I'm almost happy
Expressing a state of being close to happiness but not quite there.
It's just where I belong long
Suggesting that the almost happy state is the natural or destined place.
A constant state of almost happy
Describing a persistent condition of nearly reaching happiness.
To undo everything at once
Expressing a desire to undo all aspects of life simultaneously.
Whatever I touch I fuck it up, yeah
Reiterating the theme of consistently causing harm or disruption.
Just a regular anti-Midas
Comparing oneself to the mythical character Midas, but in a negative sense, turning everything to a metaphorical "gold" of disaster.
Whatever I feel that's what I get
Linking emotions to consequences, suggesting that feelings directly influence outcomes.
Guess I should've learned but I haven't yet
Reflecting on a failure to learn from past experiences.
It's almost like I'm almost happy
Repeating the theme of being almost happy but not quite reaching that state.
It's just where I belong long
Reiterating that the state of being almost happy is a prolonged or constant condition.
A constant state of almost happy
Describing a persistent and continuous state of nearly achieving happiness.
You've got it all and I've got none
Highlighting a stark contrast between the speaker and someone who seemingly has everything.
