Lyrics

On any other normal day

Reflecting on a typical day

Before I sleep I'd bow and pray

Engaging in prayer before bedtime

But Today don't look the same

Noticing a change in the current day

No Today don't look the same

Emphasizing the altered nature of today

And it's so like me to hide my feelings

Tendency to conceal emotions

Don't think you'd care so I'll conceal it

Believing others won't care, leading to concealment

I'll sleep em all away

Seeking solace in sleep to escape emotions

but in the morning when I wake

Reflecting on emotions upon waking up

I feel the same I did before

Experiencing unchanged feelings

there's empty bottles on the floor

Noticing empty bottles as a sign of struggles

Im drowning and there's nothing left to say

Feeling overwhelmed with nothing to express

I could tell you I was tired from my job

Considering excuses for emotional state

And I fell asleep too early or I simply just forgot

Describing reasons for falling asleep early

I should tell you that I just don't care

Expressing a lack of concern or care

And wonder if you're even there

Questioning the presence of someone important

I could lie and list a thousand reasons

Contemplating dishonesty and avoidance

But tonight I didn't talk to Jesus

Admitting not communicating with a higher power

And I could try to tell you something

Attempting to communicate something meaningful

But all my words amount to nothing

Acknowledging the inadequacy of words

and why should I pretend I care

Questioning the need to feign concern

Cus I know you can tell I'm bluffing

Recognizing the transparency of bluffing

And all my friends

Highlighting a lack of understanding from friends

Don't get the way I am

Friends advising trust in a higher plan

They tell me trust His plan

Expressing uncertainty despite advice

Oh God but in the end

Reiterating unchanged feelings

I feel the same I did before

Experiencing a persistent emotional state

there's empty bottles on the floor

Observing remnants of struggles (empty bottles)

Im drowning and there's nothing left to say

Feeling overwhelmed without words

I could tell you I was tired from my job

Repeating excuses for emotional state

And I fell asleep too early or I simply just forgot

Reiterating reasons for falling asleep early

I should tell you that I just don't care

Emphasizing a lack of concern or care

And wonder if you're even there

Questioning the presence of someone important

I could lie and list a thousand reasons

Contemplating dishonesty and avoidance again

But tonight I didn't talk to Jesus

Reiterating not communicating with a higher power

I could tell you I was tired from my job

Repeating excuses for emotional state once more

And I fell asleep too early or I simply just forgot

Reiterating reasons for falling asleep early again

I should tell you that I just don't care

Emphasizing a lack of concern or care again

And wonder if you're even there

Questioning the presence of someone important again

I could lie and list a thousand reasons

Contemplating dishonesty and avoidance again

But tonight I didn't talk to Jesus

Reiterating not communicating with a higher power again

I'm not alright, I need to talk to Jesus

Expressing a state of distress and a need for spiritual guidance
