Busy
Finding Light in Dark Moments: Jawbreaker's 'Busy' Unveils a Lifeline
Lyrics
When all the consoling places
When the usual sources of comfort and solace
Lose their charm and change their faces
Stop being appealing and alter their appearances
The world becomes too cruel to bear
The world becomes excessively harsh to endure
And something in you starts to tear
Resulting in an internal emotional struggle
When nothing seems to be quite worth it
When nothing feels truly valuable
And sleep becomes the only sure thing
And sleep becomes the only reliable refuge
I'm here to help you out of it
Offering assistance to overcome this state
Come and see me for a lift
Inviting to seek help for upliftment
We're all close to the end
Everyone is nearing the conclusion of something
Don't you need a friend?
Do you require companionship?
Honor your allegiances
Respect and stay true to your loyalties
Everyone is drowning in sand
Everyone is overwhelmed by circumstances
Couldn't you use a hand!
Could you benefit from assistance?
Please don't make a guess
Don't make assumptions without certainty
When changes make the world a stranger
When transformations make life unfamiliar
No one calls and yout life's in danger
No one reaches out and danger surrounds you
If the money's gone without a trace
If money disappears mysteriously
And your longing for a familiar face
And you yearn for familiarity
Cars collide and people die
Accidents happen, and people perish
You begin to shake 'til you start to cry
You tremble until tears flow
If disasters only start to multiply
If calamities start to increase
My door is open drop on by
I'm available if you need support
Sad again you're sad again
You're experiencing sadness again
Hey you're breaking down
Your emotional state is collapsing
Your eyes betray your new smile
Your eyes reveal the truth behind your smile
When keeping up is killing you
Trying to keep up becomes exhausting
And you need a ruling without a clue
Seeking guidance when confused
When cool means being dead
When being detached seems appealing
And your better thoughts are better left unsaid
Your more profound thoughts remain unspoken
If you're sad to see your gun's unloaded
If feeling sorrowful when your gun isn't loaded
Tried to drown but you only floated
Efforts to escape failed, leaving you afloat
If the world is only getting colder
If the world seems increasingly harsh
I'd like to offer you a dry shoulder
Offering a comforting shoulder in difficult times
Whoah!
