Lyrics
I've been floating down this muddy river

Searching for the light for most my life
Throughout their life, they've been seeking enlightenment or guidance.
That don't seem right

But I can't hold my head up any more
The weight of their experiences has become overwhelming, making it difficult to remain resilient.
I've treaded here for long enough and I
The singer implies they've struggled in this state for a considerable time.
Got no more fight
They feel depleted of energy or determination.
There ain't anyone to call upon

I'm left to fend here on my own and I

I don't know why

I'm not asking for a miracle

All my friends are caught in the glitter

But I can't hold my head up any more
Feeling overwhelmed and unable to maintain composure.
I've treaded here for long enough and I

Got no more fight
