Lyrics
Woah!
Expression of surprise or emphasis
Another problem all on our heads
Reference to facing another issue or trouble
That knife, it can cut like the thorns that shred
Comparison of a knife's sharpness to the hurt caused by thorns
Listen to me, listen to all of the things I've said
Requesting attention for the speaker's words
There's a bunch of children here that have the face of dread
Observation of fearful children
I don't have the time to listen to all these lies
Unwillingness to listen to deceitful statements
Instead, I spend my time looking at the bright night sky
Choosing to contemplate the night sky instead
But the skies are red and so is blood
Metaphorical comparison of the red skies to blood, implying danger or violence
Ain't nobody wants to give a shit, they're full of lust
People are self-centered and indifferent
Lost in the dread
Feeling lost and noticing others' reluctance to act
Lost in my head
-Nobody here wants to do anything but lay in their bed
-Lost in the dread
-Lost in my head
-Nobody here wants to do anything but lay in their bed
-I don't have the time to listen to all these lies
Reiteration of the speaker's unwillingness to entertain lies and the vivid depiction of red skies symbolizing danger or negativity
Instead, I spend my time looking at the bright night sky
-But the skies are red and so is blood
-Ain't nobody wants to give a shit, they're full of lust
-I don't have the time to listen to all these lies
-Instead, I spend my time looking at the bright night sky
-But the skies are red and so is blood
-Ain't nobody wants to give a shit, they're full of lust
-I know I can't change you
Recognition that changing others is impossible, but personal change is achievable
I know I can't change you
-But I can still change me
-Watch me and you will see
-I know I can't change you
-I know I can't change you
-But I can still change me
-Watch me and you will see
-Watch me and you will see (get out of my head)
Reinforcement of the desire to be observed while breaking free from internal struggles
Watch me and you will see (get out of my head)
-If I will watch everyone live a big fairytale while in misery
Preference to self-inflicted pain over witnessing others' false happiness amidst suffering
I'd rather self-harm
Expression of extreme distress or discontent with circumstances
What if this earth wasn't meant for me in the first place?
Questioning belongingness to the world or feeling out of place
No one to kiss on my face
Lack of romantic affection received
To others, I am a disgrace
Feeling judged unfavorably by others
I'm gone
Signifying departure or emotional withdrawal
Lost in the dread
Reiteration of feeling lost and observing others' inaction
Lost in my head
-Nobody here wants to do anything but lay in their bed
-I don't have the time to listen to all these lies
Repetition of the speaker's refusal to entertain falsehoods and the symbolism of ominous red skies, coupled with societal apathy and selfishness
Instead, I spend my time looking at the bright night sky
-But the skies are red and so is blood
-Ain't nobody wants to give a shit, they're full of lust
-I don't have the time to listen to all these lies
-Instead, I spend my time looking at the bright night sky
-But the skies are red and so is blood
-Ain't nobody wants to give a shit, they're full of lust
