Lyrics
don't do it for them
Encouragement to act for personal reasons, not for others.
do it for yourself maybe
Suggesting the importance of personal motivation.
disguising the truth
Hiding or altering the truth.
convincing myself they hate me
Convincing oneself that others dislike or hate them.
are you really there
Questioning the presence or existence of someone.
or am i just talking to myself
Wondering if the interaction is one-sided or imaginary.
i'll do it again
Expressing a willingness to repeat actions.
i'll stay up and watch the sunrise
Desire to witness the sunrise, possibly symbolizing hope or renewal.
on top of the shed
Specific location for observing the sunrise.
i wish i could stay here all night
Wishing to prolong a certain moment or feeling.
i don't understand
Expressing confusion or lack of understanding.
why is it always just like this
Frustration about recurring situations.
i miss drinking until 6am
Nostalgic longing for past experiences, possibly involving drinking.
with all of my friends
Desire for social connections and camaraderie.
even ones i just met
Openness to forming friendships quickly.
hey owen i hope that you're listening man
Sending a message to someone named Owen, expressing gratitude.
you helped me get outta my bedroom again
Recognition of someone's help in breaking isolation.
i was on the verge of the end of it all
Feeling on the brink of a crisis without anyone's awareness.
but nobody knew at all
Sense of isolation and secrecy regarding personal struggles.
and i wish that i could get stuck in the past
Wishing to return to a simpler or more comfortable past.
back before we started moving so fast
Regretting the fast-paced nature of current circumstances.
standing this still is a choice that won't last
Choosing to stay stagnant, acknowledging it won't last.
and neither will we so i guess it's a wrap
Acknowledging transience, both of the self and situations.
from here i see this so clearly
Clarity gained from a specific vantage point.
at the edge of the world still in fear of my feelings
Fearful of acknowledging and confronting emotions.
(at the edge of the world still in fear of my feelings x2)
Repetition of fear regarding emotions.
i had everything mapped to a t
Confidence in having a plan, but reality differs.
but everything here isn't quite as it seems
Things not being as expected or perceived.
there's blood everywhere from the heart on my sleeve
Metaphorical imagery of emotional pain and distress.
a permanent fix yeah i wanted to leave it
Desire for a permanent solution to difficulties.
all behind me
Wish to leave behind emotional burdens.
cauterizing
Symbolic action of stopping oneself from soaring or progressing.
the thread on my wings so i'm no longer flying
Seeking help or assistance to escape a difficult situation.
help
Expression of struggling in a challenging circumstance.
i'm trying to climb out this hell
Effort to escape a distressing situation.
but it's hard to talk when i lack
Difficulty in expressing oneself due to lacking necessary skills.
all the skills that i need to get outta my shell
Willingness to take a risk but not wanting interference.
i'm not scared to jump so just please don't come near me
Expectation of others celebrating or mocking a fall.
when i hit the bottom is when they'll start cheering
Fear of judgment upon reaching a low point.
and now i'm a ghost i don't know if you're hearing this
Feeling invisible or unheard after a significant change.
and now i'm a ghost i don't know if you hear me
Repetition of feeling unseen or unheard (repeated).
and now i'm a ghost oh hello can you hear me
Continued expression of feeling invisible and seeking acknowledgment.
