Lyrics

In my mind's eye, life was a sublime lie

In the perspective of my thoughts, life appeared to be a beautiful deception.

Can't decide I'm designed for the limelight

I'm uncertain whether I'm destined for the spotlight.

You know, intelligent design right?

Acknowledging the idea of a purposeful creator, perhaps referring to destiny.

All up out my element in hindsight

I found myself outside my natural state when reflecting on the past.


I'll bring lobster into poverty

Willing to sacrifice luxury for a celebration honoring my achievements.

For a ceremony honoring me

Describing a grand event to recognize the speaker, possibly a metaphorical scenario.

And all my existential pondering

Engaged in deep contemplation about existence.

While I forgot about my laundry

Despite profound thoughts, neglecting mundane responsibilities like laundry.


Locked in my head, a self-destructive socrates

Feeling trapped in self-destructive patterns, likened to the philosopher Socrates.

I swallowed everything I thought were keys

Consuming everything, even what seemed essential (keys) in a metaphorical sense.

Sickened but addicted to philosophy

Experiencing both discomfort and addiction to philosophical pursuits.


So you think I'm confused

Repetition emphasizing that despite appearing confused, the speaker is adept at foolishness.

But I'm fluent in foolish too

-

So you think I'm confused

-

But I'm fluent in foolish too

-

So you think I'm confused

-

But I'm fluent in foolish too

-

So you think I'm confused

-

But I'm fluent in foolish too

-

I used to think I wouldn't break if I was bent

Formerly believing resilience in adversity, now questioning the idea of existence.

At least I wouldn't think I don't exist

Doubting one's own significance and existence.

My fingers interlaced in an abyss

Hands intertwined, symbolizing a complex and confusing situation.

There's no complacent place as dangerous as this

No comfortable state as perilous as the current mental state.


I used to think I was the shit

Reflecting on past arrogance and evolving understanding of personal purpose.

I used to think I wasn't shit

-

I knew that I was meant for something big

-

Had to get centered for I figured what that something is

-

I lost my mind and my timeline thought I could define life couldn't even find mine

Experiencing a breakdown, unable to define life or locate one's path.

But in time, I learned to walk a fine line

Learning to navigate a delicate balance between truth and illusion over time.

Truth and a divine lie intertwined

The intertwining of truth and a divine falsehood, suggesting a complex perception of reality.
