Lyrics

It's morning again

Reflecting on the start of a new day.

I'm sensing a trend

Noticing a recurring pattern or behavior.

I don't know how it takes so long to get to sunset

Expressing impatience about the slow passage of time until sunset.

And just like that, it's gone

Highlighting the fleeting nature of time.

Watching my friends

Observing friends engaging in familiar activities.

They're at it again

Not understanding why observing friends makes the speaker feel sad.

I don't know why it makes me sad to see them all here now

Expressing emotions about seeing friends together.

In the same room

Not specified (possibly continuation of emotions about friends).


Won't you stay out in the world

Invitation to remain active and engaged in the world.

We don't care how it's supposed to be

Emphasizing a disregard for societal expectations.

Won't you stay out in the world

Encouraging continued participation in the world.

Said, we don't care how it's supposed to be

Reiteration of not conforming to societal norms.


Catching yourself checking your hair

Noticing self-conscious behavior while checking appearance.

Zoom in to roll the deck

Referencing a detailed examination or scrutiny.

So every person that you've ever met

Reflecting on encounters with various people.

It's evening again

Acknowledging the arrival of the evening.

Please tell me the trance

Requesting an explanation or clarification.

I feel like that I've died and gone back to high school

Feeling reminiscent of high school but negatively.

But I can't remember being as bad as this

Expressing a sense of being worse than remembered.


Won't you stay out in the world

Encouraging continued engagement with the world.

We don't care how it's supposed to be

Reiterating a disregard for societal expectations.

Won't you stay out in the world

Encouraging continued participation in the world.

Said, we don't care how it's supposed to be

Reiteration of not conforming to societal norms.


And I'm wondering where it all went wrong

Expressing contemplation about life's misdirection.

I was growin' up right, I was a good kid

Recalling a positive upbringing as a good child.

Turns out that's not a matter of fact

Realizing the subjectivity of being a "good kid."

And nobody cares who gets to sing the song

Commenting on the indifference towards who tells the story.

It's gonna change in time, who wants the limelight?

Expecting a shift in attention or recognition over time.

But it's not too late to change your life or your mind

Believing it's never too late to make life or mindset changes.


So just stay out in the world

Encouraging continued engagement with the world.

We don't care how it's supposed to be

Reiterating a disregard for societal expectations.

Won't you stay out in the world

Encouraging continued participation in the world.

Said, we don't care how it's supposed to be

Reiteration of not conforming to societal norms.
