Lyrics
I had a fight with my dad
I had a conflict with my father
He said I didn't care
He claimed I lacked concern
But that's not so fair, you know?
Disputing the fairness of his accusation
Love can be so strange
Love is portrayed as unpredictable
I know we'll never change
Acceptance that certain things won't change
But I just don't care you know
Expressing apathy towards the situation
Sometimes you don't get what you want
Highlighting the reality of unfulfilled desires
Sometimes you don't get what you want
Reiteration of the unpredictable nature of life
I've been feeling this world so shallow, so grey
Feeling a sense of emptiness and dullness in the world
(So shallow, so grey, so shallow)
(Reinforcement of the feeling of shallowness and greyness)
I have found myself so shallow, so grey
Acknowledging personal shallowness and greyness
(So shallow, so grey, so shallow)
(Reiteration of personal emptiness and dullness)
Sometimes you don't get what you want
Recurrence of unfulfilled desires
Sometimes you don't get what you want
Emphasizing life's unpredictability
Ahh, Ahh, Ahh
Expression of emotional turmoil
You say 'drop the attitude'
Conflict involving a request to change behavior
I say 'I'm not in the mood'
Resistance to altering one's attitude
We're going back in circles
Indication of repetitiveness or going in circles
I say 'drop the attitude'
Reiteration of the conflict and resistance
You say you're not in the mood
Claiming a lack of mood for change
We're going back in circles
Highlighting the cyclical nature of the conflict
Sometimes you don't get what you want
Repeating the theme of unfulfilled desires
Sometimes you don't get what you want
Emphasizing life's unpredictable outcomes
I'm leaving this face at my own pace
Expressing a personal decision to leave a situation at one's own pace
I'm leaving this face at my own pace
-I'm leaving this face at my own pace
-I'm leaving this face at my own pace
-I'm leaving this face at my own pace
-I'm leaving this face at my own pace
-I'm leaving this face at my own pace
-I'm leaving this face at my own pace
-Ahh, Ahh, Ahh
Expression of emotional distress or intensity
I wanna die, I don't wanna die
Conveying a desire for an end to the emotional pain
