The Outlier, Pt. 2
Embracing the Outlier: Navigating Life's Uncharted Waters
Lyrics
I'm running for my life
I feel a sense of urgency and danger, possibly in a metaphorical sense.
I'm heading for the hills
I am trying to escape or find refuge, possibly in nature or isolation.
Still don't know what all of this means
I am still uncertain about the meaning of my situation or life in general.
I'm all alone in a crowded room
Despite being surrounded by people, I feel isolated and disconnected.
Still don't know what it fucking means, Erie
I remain confused and frustrated, particularly in a place called Erie.
I am the outlier
I identify myself as an outlier, someone who doesn't conform to the norm.
I am the outlier
-I am the outlier
-Your smile wraps across your face like a noose around my neck
Your smile has a negative impact on me, creating a feeling of suffocation.
I feel like I'm swimming with heavy stones in all of my pockets
I feel burdened and weighed down, as if carrying a heavy emotional load.
Been kicking down doors for you to walk through
I make efforts for someone to enter my life, but it seems futile and time-consuming.
Overwhelmed and under qualified
-Been kicking down doors for you to walk through
-All of this wasted time
-20 Years of my life, false reality
I reflect on the passing of time, expressing feelings of living in a false reality and rushed mortality.
30 Years of my life, rushed mortality
-A daily baptism, a senseless ritual, through the frozen fires
Everyday rituals and experiences feel meaningless and repetitive, with no escape.
Here I am again, stuck in a round room, no corners for me to hide
-Been kicking down doors for you to walk through
Repetition of efforts to open doors for someone, with a sense of being overwhelmed and unqualified.
Overwhelmed and under qualified
-Been kicking down doors for you to walk through
-All of this wasted time
-40 Years of my life, where will I be
Concerns about the future and a sense of being lost or directionless in later years.
50 Years of my life, still lost at sea
-Still lost at sea
-20 Years of my life, false reality
Reiteration of themes related to false reality, rushed mortality, and being lost at sea as life progresses.
30 Years of my life, rushed mortality
-40 Years of my life, where will I be
-50 Years of my life, still lost at sea
-Still lost out at sea
Continued feelings of being lost or adrift in life, especially in later years.
