Lyrics
Something feels a little out of place
Expressing a sense of something being out of the ordinary or unsettling.
Is it you, is it me?
Pondering whether the source of the unease is the speaker, the listener, or a combination.
Or maybe something in between?
Suggesting the possibility of an undefined factor contributing to the feeling of displacement.
Something feels a little out of place
Reiteration of the initial sense of something being out of place.
Maybe the buzzing of this fluorescent light
Speculating that the cause might be the humming of a fluorescent light.
Something feels a little out of place
Reaffirming the feeling of displacement.
Couldn't put my finger on it even if I got it amputated
Expressing difficulty in pinpointing the cause, using amputation metaphorically.
Looking for emancipation or even just some correlation
Seeking freedom or connection but struggling with incapacitation.
Still not really used to the incapacitation
Expressing discomfort with the unfamiliar state of incapacitation.
But something feels rigid
Describing a feeling of rigidity.
The room is feeling frigid
Portraying a cold atmosphere in the room.
The only thing I've been gaining lately here is some distance
Reflecting on growing emotional distance.
Counting down the minutes through some lenses in a bent frame
Counting time, perhaps in anticipation or boredom.
Sitting on a nose bone chilling by the rib cage
Painting a vivid image of physical discomfort and tension.
And I'm looking at her face
Observing someone's face amid the gloom.
The gloom is heavy
Describing a heavy and oppressive mood.
The clouds are steadily gathering and floating right under the ceiling fan
Depicting an impending emotional storm.
Flooding out the bed sheets, overflow the dripping pans
Symbolizing emotional overflow through vivid imagery.
Feeling like a prison camp
Expressing a feeling of confinement or emotional imprisonment.
Watching from the window on the outside
Observing a situation from an outsider's perspective.
Married souls turned into widows
Depicting a tragic transformation of a relationship.
Black like spiders
Using dark imagery, possibly signifying deceit or danger.
Poison in the cider
Suggesting toxicity and harm in a metaphorical drink.
I loved with every part of me, now I'm the fucking liar
Admitting to falsehood in love, becoming a liar.
Hearing Handel's choir from "Hallelujah" to dissonance
Referencing a shift from harmony to discord in Handel's "Hallelujah."
Too gone, I'm lost
Expressing a sense of being lost and detached.
The rain remains omnipotent
Describing rain as an all-powerful force.
I sat across the room watching the rope that connected our souls untether to a slope
Observing the disconnection of souls, possibly through time or circumstance.
That shifted to a snake that forgot our names
Metaphorically describing the transformation of a connection into something menacing.
Sat across my chest, caressing my neck
Describing a physical and emotional burden.
Waiting for me to to sell my last breath
Suggesting a dark anticipation of impending mortality.
Satan still waiting for me to write that last check
Highlighting a confrontation with inner demons and mortality.
But it'd only bounce back if he'd try to cash that so I'll keep sulking while I sit here with the last laugh
Ironically acknowledging the futility of demonic pursuits.
She's standing in a dark patch; it's like she saw the ghost of her lover rising from the under
Describing a haunting experience and a struggle to be heard.
Ripping her soul asunder, trying to distinguish my voice amidst the thunder
Depicting emotional turmoil amid external chaos.
I'm terrified, too
Acknowledging personal fear and vulnerability.
Can't you still see that I'm still me?
Pleading for recognition of one's unchanged identity.
Why is this happening?
Pose a question about the reasons for the turmoil.
These demons are after me
Expressing a sense of being pursued by internal demons or troubles.
Can't you see that I'm still me?
Repeating the plea for recognition amidst personal struggles.
I can see you and me shining in the violet
Painting a hopeful image of unity or connection in the midst of chaos.
Suddenly the room became silent
Describing a sudden, eerie silence in the room.
