Lyrics

Sometimes I wanna be by myself

Expresses the desire for solitude at times

Sometimes I wanna be by myself

Reiterates the desire for solitude

Most times I want to be by myself

Emphasizes the preference for being alone most of the time

Two strangers done meet

Two unfamiliar individuals have encountered each other

Looks like they're destined for hell

Suggests that their future seems bleak or troubled

Fuck it rather be in my cell

Would rather be imprisoned than face the situation

Don't save me a seat inside a church ringing bells

Rejecting religious or ceremonial inclusion

Bullet to my head I'm not alone

Contemplating self-harm but acknowledging the presence of others

They've been keeping the peace when no one's ringing my phone

Others maintain peace while not contacting the person

Can't tell if it's a house or a home

Uncertainty regarding the feeling of belonging at a place

Just live for the day then make it last for some weeks

Live in the present and extend its happiness

Or maybe some years oh cute isn't that so sweet

Commenting on the superficial sweetness of some things

Why should I wake just to live life on repeat

Questioning the purpose of waking up to repeat life

They act like they're suffering when you're resting in peace

People seem to act like they suffer when actually at peace (death)

I know it'll end in a minute

Awareness of life's brevity

I've seen love ones beat this game before

Witnessed loved ones overcoming similar challenges

Keep running up them digits

Focus on acquiring wealth or money

Plugs just glad that he made a score

A drug dealer is pleased with a successful transaction

The more I shout the louder they ignore

Feeling ignored despite shouting or expressing oneself

Two bangs on the door my brains and I on the floor

Suggests a violent act resulting in harm to oneself

My brains and I on the floor

Reiteration of the previous violent imagery

My brains and I on the floor

Reiteration for emphasis

Most times I want to be by myself

Reiterates the preference for solitude

Two strangers done meet

Reintroduces the encounter of unfamiliar individuals

Looks like they're destined for hell

Repeats the notion of a troubled destiny for them

Fuck it rather be in my cell

Would prefer being imprisoned over facing the situation

Don't save me a seat inside a church ringing bells

Rejecting religious or ceremonial inclusion (repeated)

Bullet to my head I'm not alone

Contemplating self-harm but acknowledging the presence of others (repeated)

They've been keeping the peace when no one's ringing my phone

Others maintain peace while not contacting the person (repeated)

Can't tell if it's a house or a home

Uncertainty regarding the feeling of belonging at a place (repeated)
