Lyrics

I've been running around town

I've been constantly moving around the town.

Feeling up and down

Experiencing fluctuating emotions.

Taped up the windows at the house

Secured the windows at home with tape.

But I ain't dead yet

Despite challenges, I am still alive.

Would you even pick me out in the crowd?

Questioning if you would recognize me in a crowd.

'Cause I can't recognize myself now

Feeling a loss of self-identity.

And I'm turning away help

Refusing assistance and turning away help.

Can you pull me out?

Asking for help to be pulled out of a difficult situation.


I've been down

Expressing a state of feeling down.

I've been down

-

You say there's no stupid questions

Quoting a saying about questions and foolishness.

Only stupid people

Feeling foolish in the current situation.

Well, I've been feeling pretty foolish

Struggling to navigate through difficulties.

Tryin' to get myself through this

-

And I've been watching too much TV

Watching excessive TV, possibly as a distraction.

Looking up at the ceiling

Looking up at the ceiling, feeling uneasy.

It's been making me feel creepy

TV content causing discomfort or fear.

I'm just tryna shake this feeling

Trying to overcome the unsettling feeling.


I've been down

Reiterating the experience of being down and seeking help.

I've been down

-

I've been down (come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, baby)

-

I've been down

-

Can you help me out?

Requesting assistance to overcome difficulties.

(Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, honey)

-

I'm wakin' up at night

Describing a nighttime scene with a loved one while still feeling down.

Tick-tock killing time

-

A little moonlight comin' through the blinds

-

The love of my life

-

Sleepin' by my side

-

But I'm still down

Despite the presence of love, still feeling low.


But I think that we need to come together

Advocating for unity and coming together to overcome challenges.

I think that we need to come together (you know I'm down)

-

I think that we need to come together

-

I think that we need to come together (you know I'm down)

-

I've been down

Repeating the theme of being down and seeking help.

I've been down

-

I've been down

-

Can you help me out?

-

I've been down (come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, baby)

Continuing the plea for assistance and collaboration.

I've been down (come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, honey)

-

I've been down (come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, baby)

-

Can you help me out?

-

(Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, honey)

Repeating the call for help with a sense of urgency.
