Doghouse
Rebellion Echoes: Highway Natives' Doghouse Chronicles
Lyrics
I'm serving my time again
I am experiencing a period of punishment or difficulty once again.
Never do nothin right
I consistently make mistakes and fail to do things correctly.
Whistle blowin' in my ear
There is constant criticism or disapproval affecting me.
To get my ass back in line
Someone is urging or forcing me to get back in line or conform.
Rain's fallin' on my head
Symbolic reference to facing difficulties or challenges, possibly reflecting a troubled state of mind.
Chained up to my bed
Feeling restricted or confined, possibly in a relationship or situation.
Muddy water gettin deep
Facing a challenging or uncertain situation, compared to wading through muddy water.
I just wanna go inside
Expressing a desire to retreat or find solace.
But I'm stuck in the doghouse
Metaphorically stuck in a difficult or uncomfortable situation, like being in the doghouse.
I ain't no good in your eyes
Perceived as inadequate or unworthy in someone else's perspective.
I've been howling at the moon
Engaging in behavior or expression of emotions associated with distress or loneliness.
Until come morning time
Continuing distress or howling until the morning, suggesting an enduring struggle.
I just can't sit and stay
Unable to remain still or settled; a restless or rebellious nature.
Girl I like runnin' wild
Expressing a preference for a free-spirited, unrestrained lifestyle.
Tearin' up all the land
Engaging in activities that cause disruption or chaos.
Until I'm exiled
Facing consequences, possibly isolation or exile, due to one's actions.
But I'm stuck in the doghouse
Reiteration of being metaphorically stuck in a challenging situation.
I ain't no good in your eyes
Continued perception of being unworthy or flawed in someone else's eyes.
I've been howling at the moon
Repetition of expressing distress or loneliness through howling.
Until come morning time
Continuation of enduring struggles until the morning.
Well I ain't ever done what I been told
Confession of not adhering to instructions or societal expectations.
And it's kinda hard to break the mold
Acknowledgment of the difficulty in breaking away from established patterns or norms.
No matter how many bones you throw at me
Resilience despite challenges; refusing to be easily swayed or controlled.
When you got me by the collar
A metaphorical reference to being under someone's control or authority.
I can't breathe (so I holler)
Feeling restricted or oppressed, struggling to express oneself.
Then you put me out for all the world to see
Being exposed or put on display, possibly in a vulnerable or embarrassing situation.
But I'm stuck in the doghouse
Reiteration of being metaphorically stuck in a challenging situation.
I ain't no good in your eyes
Continued perception of being unworthy or flawed in someone else's eyes.
I've been howling at the moon

Until come morning time
