Lyrics
I'm looking for a way out
I feel trapped and am searching for an escape.
Of this life you've forced me into
You've imposed a life on me that I didn't choose or want.
I never asked for this
I never desired or requested the situation I'm in.
You know I never fucking wanted this
Emphasizing the strong dislike for the forced life.
I'm a burden to all
I feel like a burden to everyone around me.
And I'm loved by no one
I perceive myself as unloved by anyone.
Only here to waste your time and disappoint you
Expressing a sense of purposelessness and disappointment to others.
Too bad I didn't make the fucking cut
I didn't succeed in meeting certain expectations or standards.
It would have been nice to feel like your son
Expressing a desire for parental acknowledgment and acceptance.
Back burner is where I'll be with everyone
Anticipating being overlooked and neglected like others.
Back burner is where I'll be with the family you left behind
Expecting to be sidelined with the family left behind.
I bet you're proud of me now that I turned out just like you
Ironically pointing out that the speaker has become like their parent.
I'm fucking Ruthless and cold to the touch
Describing oneself as ruthless and emotionally distant.
And I don't fucking need it
Rejecting the imposed life and expressing independence.
Back burner is where I'll be with everyone
Reiterating the expectation of being sidelined with others.
Back burner is where I'll be with the family you left behind
Repeating the idea of being with the family left behind.
I bet you're proud of me now that I turned out just like you
Repeating the irony of resembling the parent and seeking approval.
I'm fucking ruthless, cold to the touch
Reiterating the ruthless and emotionally detached nature.
I'm closed and distant from my family
Describing the emotional distance from the family.
And I never fucking wanted to be your ghost
Expressing the speaker's unwillingness to become a lingering presence or memory.
I'll always fucking be your ghost
Asserting that the speaker will always be a haunting presence.
Motherfucker!
An abrupt and intense expression, possibly representing frustration or anger.
I'm still looking for a way out
Reiterating the search for an escape from the imposed life.
Of this life you've forced me into
Emphasizing the sense of being forced into an undesired life.
