Lyrics

I'm back on my eldest daughter bullshit

I'm embracing my tendencies to prioritize my eldest daughter role, likely referring to a pattern of behavior.

Drawn towards broken people like a magnet

I'm drawn to broken individuals, exhibiting a magnetic attraction to people with struggles or challenges.

Pull out my tool kit

I'm preparing myself with the necessary tools or skills.

Hammer you back into place

I'm determined to fix or repair you, using a metaphorical hammer to restore balance.

Proficient in tension headaches and white lies

I excel in dealing with stress-induced headaches and telling lies to maintain harmony.

Grind my teeth even at night

I grind my teeth at night, possibly indicating inner tension or anxiety.

Draw lines in the sand

I establish boundaries, only to witness them being erased or disregarded.

Just to watch them wash away

I create challenges that are easily overcome or ignored.

Want everyone to adore me even though

I desire universal admiration despite lacking control over others' emotions.

People's emotions are out of my control

I acknowledge the challenge of managing people's feelings.

Smothering fires

I suffocate potential issues before they escalate.

Letting flames claim my hands

I allow myself to experience pain or consequences.

I would do anything to be needed

I'm willing to do anything to feel essential or needed.

Over and over again

This desire repeats persistently in my life.

I'm back on my routine loving bullshit

I'm returning to a routine of seeking love or affirmation.

Pamper myself with meticulous habits

I indulge in self-care practices with careful attention to detail.

Cling to what I know like a golden safety net

I cling to familiar comforts as a protective barrier.

(Ah)

(Ah) - Possibly an expressive interjection, indicating emotion or realization.

Caffeine and praise like wind in my sails

Caffeine and praise fuel my energy and motivation.

Trying and failing to quit biting my nails

I struggle to break the habit of biting my nails.

Keep moving to silence the voices in my head

I keep moving forward to silence inner struggles or doubts.

(Mmm)

(Mmm) - Another interjection, possibly conveying a thoughtful or reflective mood.

Want everyone to adore me even though

I crave admiration despite lacking control over others' emotions (repeated theme).

People's emotions are out of my control

I acknowledge the challenge of managing people's feelings (repeated theme).

Smothering fires

I prevent potential issues from escalating (repeated theme).

Letting flames claim my hands

I allow myself to experience pain or consequences (repeated theme).

I would do anything to be needed

I'm willing to do anything to feel essential or needed (repeated theme).

Over and over again

This desire repeats persistently in my life (repeated theme).

Bring me your battled, your bruised, and scarred

I welcome those who are struggling, positioning myself as a caregiver or healer.

Florence Nightingale to your broken hearts

A reference to Florence Nightingale, indicating a nurturing role in mending broken hearts.

Bring me your bleeding

I'm open to helping with emotional wounds or pain.

I'll stitch it up with a bow

I'll mend your wounds with care and present them as a gift (with a bow).

Tugging at the sword in the stone

I'm attempting to fulfill a challenging or unattainable goal, like pulling a sword from a stone.

The dormant hero in me is yet to be known

The heroic part of me remains dormant and undiscovered.

Dying to prove myself again but I don't know how

I yearn to prove myself again but feel uncertain about how to do so.

Wanna lay my weapons down

I want to relinquish my defensive or combative nature.

Lay my weapons down

I want to surrender my weapons and adopt a more vulnerable stance.

Want everyone to adore me even though

I desire universal admiration despite lacking control over others' emotions (repeated theme).

People's emotions are out of my control

I acknowledge the challenge of managing people's feelings (repeated theme).

Smothering fires

I prevent potential issues from escalating (repeated theme).

Letting flames claim my hands

I allow myself to experience pain or consequences (repeated theme).

I would do anything to be needed

I'm willing to do anything to feel essential or needed (repeated theme).

Over and over again

This desire repeats persistently in my life (repeated theme).
