Don't Know How to Be
Finding Clarity: Unraveling Life's Struggles through Colors
Lyrics
It's all too clear now
Expressing a realization that things are now clear.
Well I been running away
Admitting to a pattern of running away from something.
Almost on the hour of mostly every day
Highlighting the frequency of avoidance, almost daily.
Now I see colors
Perceiving colors metaphorically, possibly emotions or experiences.
That I never seen
Acknowledging new and unfamiliar aspects.
And now reddest of them all so vibrant out of me
Describing a vivid and intense color (red) emerging from the speaker.
Without you
Expressing dependence on someone ("you") for a sense of self.
I don't know how to be
Admitting a lack of knowledge about how to exist without the mentioned person.
See this zero
Introducing the concept of "zero" as the lowest point.
The lowest of the low
Describing a state of extreme negativity or despair.
I let you take me down until lower I could not go
Allowing someone to bring the speaker to a low point.
Now I see scars
Recognizing visible marks or wounds, possibly emotional.
I willingly made
Acknowledging personal responsibility for self-inflicted harm.
I facilitated one need
Indicating facilitation of a need, possibly unhealthy or destructive.
Now here I lay
Presenting the consequence of the speaker's actions, lying in a vulnerable state.
Tell me what was I
Pleading for an understanding of the speaker's past actions.
What was I thinking
Expressing regret or confusion about past thoughts or decisions.
Tell me what was I
(Repetition for emphasis: What were the speaker's thoughts at that time?)
What was I thinking
-Tell me what was I
-What was I thinking
-Tell me what was I
-What the hell was I thinking
Expressing frustration or disbelief regarding past decisions or actions.
