Selfish Eyes
Unveiling the Struggles within Selfish Eyes
Lyrics
I slam the door in my own face again
I intentionally reject opportunities or positive changes in my life.
To see if I will ever change the feeling
I question whether I can overcome the persistent negative emotions.
I separate from my body
I feel detached from my own physical self.
Simply just lost in my mind
I am mentally lost and struggling within my thoughts.
If I walk and find a stone
If faced with obstacles, I try to find value or meaning within them.
Break it open to find my own gold
I create something valuable out of seemingly insignificant or challenging situations.
Making riches out of nothing
I turn nothing into something valuable.
There is one thing, the way it's spent
The way time is utilized is crucial, as mismanagement could lead to loss.
Is the challenge or we'll have nothing left.
The proper use of time is a challenge, or else there will be nothing meaningful left.
Fill my stomach with bags of salt
I consume things that are harmful or detrimental to my well-being.
Dissolve like a slug but you know it's your fault
I dissolve or deteriorate slowly, acknowledging personal responsibility.
But once my remains are on the floor
After facing difficulties, I transform and rebuild myself.
I'll blossom like a flower and become a whole
I will thrive and become complete after overcoming challenges.
Do you love when you're breaking at the seams?
Do you find joy in moments of vulnerability or emotional pain?
Do you love when you forget what it means?
Do you find joy in losing sight of the true meaning or purpose?
Do you love when you have nothing?
Do you find joy in having nothing?
An empty pocket doesn't hurt as much as an empty chest
Emotional emptiness hurts more than financial emptiness.
So break the bread and off up
Share what you have with others, even if it means sacrificing.
The ones you cared for and loved enough
Sacrifice relationships for temporary pleasures.
Because you gave up your water for a fifth of gin,
Trading essential needs for harmful substances like alcohol.
You're like a sailboat with no captain or wind.
Living without direction or control, like a ship without a captain or wind.
