Lyrics
Long, long time ago
Refers to a distant past
I spent a summer
Recalling a summer period
Staring out my window
Spent time gazing out of a window
Waiting out the pain, waiting on
Enduring pain while waiting
Waiting for the day I feel okay
Anticipating a day of feeling better
Watching cars pass, wondering
Observing passing cars
If they're comin' or they're going
Contemplating their direction
Oh, I wonder
Expressing curiosity
Bad bloods got me all fucked up
Feeling emotionally affected by unresolved issues
New horizon shone a light on me
Discovery of a new perspective or opportunity
Found a lover, she was sweet
Encountering a romantic partner
Learned to play and then to cheat her
Learning to manipulate or deceive the partner
Busy hands, they kept my mind at peace
Keeping busy to maintain mental calmness
But silence, it's inevitable
Acknowledging an unavoidable silence
So inevitably
Recognizing the inevitability of circumstances
It's all in vain, all in vain
Feeling that efforts are futile
Bad blood it flows through my
Continued presence of negative emotions
Bad bloods got me all fucked up
Continued impact of unresolved issues
Ooh ooh ooh yeah
Expressing emotional distress
Bad bloods got me all fucked up
Reiterating emotional turmoil
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Repeating distressful emotions
Holy rollers screamin'
Religious individuals expressing loudly
Deafening my reason
Overwhelming religious influence
Washing out my brain with soap
Metaphorical cleansing of the mind
Mothers fighting demons
Maternal figures battling internal struggles
Though I never see them
Unseen struggles emphasized by someone
She swears they've got me by the throat
Belief in external control or manipulation
Headstrong, sick son
Stubborn, unwell offspring
Backslid Christian
Formerly religious but now inconsistent
Don't like to sit through church
Discomfort in religious settings
Lukewarm livin'
Living with lukewarm enthusiasm
Outcast citizen
Feeling like an excluded member of society
Shade-casting son-of-a-btich
Self-deprecating description
Bad bloods got me all fucked up
Reiterating emotional turmoil
Ooh ooh ooh yeah
-Bad bloods got me all fucked up
Repeating distressful emotions
Ooh Ooh Ooh
-Holy rollers screamin'
Religious individuals expressing loudly
Deafening my reason
Overwhelming religious influence
Washing out my brain with soap
Metaphorical cleansing of the mind
Mothers fighting demons
Maternal figures battling internal struggles
Though I never see them
Unseen struggles emphasized by someone
She swears they've got me by the throat
Belief in external control or manipulation
