Lyrics
I'm clinging on for dear life
I'm desperately holding on to life.
Lately been, feeling like collateral damage
Recently, I've been feeling like I'm experiencing the negative consequences of a situation.
Not good, not bad, just something that happened
My current state is neither good nor bad; it's just an event that happened.
And I heard it only gets harder as you grow older
I've heard that life becomes more challenging with age.
Tired of having birthdays - is that alright?
I'm tired of celebrating birthdays; questioning if it's acceptable.
An easy way out to be immortalized in time
Considering an easy way to achieve immortality by being remembered through time.
The girl who can't bear the weight of a head on her shoulders
Feeling overwhelmed by responsibilities and unable to bear the weight of life.
So I rewatch my old favorite tv shows
I revisit my old favorite TV shows as a form of escapism.
And I try to forget I'm growing old
Trying to ignore the reality of aging.
Time's a strange thing to say the least
Time is a complex concept, difficult to define.
I'm scared of losing it though I've always wanted to leave
Despite wanting to leave, I fear losing time.
I'm clinging on for dear life
Reiterating the desperate clinging to life.
Scared to sleep cause I dont wanna wake up in the mornin
Fearful of sleeping due to the uncertainty of waking up the next morning.
Silence, then the chest pain hits me without a warnin
Experiencing sudden chest pain without warning.
Escape my nightmares just to find there's no relief in waking up
Discovering that escaping nightmares does not bring relief upon waking.
Rewatch my old favorite tv shows
Continuing the pattern of using TV shows to escape.
And I try to forget I'm growing old
Attempting to forget the inevitable process of aging.
Time's a strange thing to say the least
Reiterating the mysterious nature of time.
I'm scared of losing it though I've always wanted to leave
Despite wanting to leave life, there is a fear of losing it.
I'm clinging on for dear life
Expressing the ongoing struggle to hold onto life.
Like I've been doing my whole life
Describing a lifelong pattern of desperately clinging to life.
Dear life why'd you make it so hard for me?
Pleading with life, questioning why it's so difficult.
Can't find the strength to stay, can't find the strength to leave
Unable to find the strength to stay or leave.
I'm clinging on for dear life
Repeating the theme of desperately clinging to life.
