Better
Embracing Shadows: Unveiling the Depths of Inner Struggle in 'Better'
Lyrics
there's no sense waiting in this state
Expressing impatience and dissatisfaction with the current situation.
i've realized too late
Realizing a realization belatedly, possibly with regret or missed opportunities.
there's only so much left inside
Highlighting the limitation of emotional capacity or resilience.
only so much space to hide
Suggesting a sense of constriction or lack of places to escape or find solace.
i've dreamed of castles in the air
Expressing unfulfilled dreams and aspirations.
but i've never found out where
Reflecting on the inability to realize one's dreams or goals.
i need a break or a vacation
Desiring a break or vacation to avoid potential negative outcomes.
before i give myself a scare
Expressing a need for respite before experiencing fear or anxiety.
don't try to understand me your logic won't command me
Rejecting attempts to be understood based on logic.
don't try to read between my mind
Discouraging attempts to interpret thoughts that are not explicitly communicated.
if i could kill you with a touch
Fantasizing about the power to eliminate intense hatred through physical touch.
i'd never hate this much
Expressing a desire to overcome strong negative emotions.
one thousand colors every day
Contrasting a multitude of potential experiences with a prevailing sense of dullness or monotony.
but all i see is grey
Feeling emotionally colorblind or unable to appreciate life's vibrancy.
my history is plagiarized
Feeling a lack of originality or authenticity in personal history.
i feel desensitized
Experiencing a reduced sensitivity or responsiveness to emotions.
maybe one more shot of reason
Suggesting the possibility of a final attempt to understand or reveal the truth.
will ripple this disguise
Hoping for a revelation or realization to break through a false identity.
i told that man just what i thought of him
Expressing frankness or directness in expressing opinions to someone.
so i'm right where i am tied to this bed
Feeling confined or restricted, possibly due to previous actions or words.
subconsciously restrained and now i wish i hadn't said
Regretting spoken words that have unintentionally caused distress.
what i said to both of my parents because i made my mother cry
Expressing remorse for causing emotional pain to parents.
if they'd only wait i'll make it up to them because i can be a better man
Promising self-improvement and a commitment to being a better person.
i'm floating in a frozen sea
Describing a feeling of isolation or detachment in a challenging environment.
i'll watch the morning break
Anticipating a new beginning or positive change with the arrival of morning.
giving way to shades of brown
Observing the transition from darkness to a warmer, earthy color palette.
i see the colors all around
Noticing the beauty in the world despite personal struggles.
for once there's no one here but me
Experiencing a rare moment of solitude and self-reflection.
and my autumn reverie
Indulging in a contemplative state during the autumn season.
and in my heart i know
Having a deep conviction about the proximity of a desired state or realization.
it's as close as i'll ever be
Acknowledging the limitation of achieving a desired state.
