Lyrics
Won't you give me back my old eyes, I've seen enough
Requesting to return to a previous perspective or state of innocence, expressing weariness from experiences.
Done time before but never so mundane
Has been in difficult situations before, but now facing a sense of monotony or routine.
Caught up in dreams of somethin' more and I missed so much
Caught up in aspirations for something more, feeling regret for missing out on significant aspects of life.
Ain't quite the life that I had planned to make
Life hasn't turned out as planned, expressing disappointment in the current situation.
Careless and out of my mind
Behaving recklessly and without concern.
Never saw it slippin' away
Unaware of the gradual loss or decline of something valuable.
Now the dread's been creepin' up, how will I get mine
Feeling a sense of impending doom, questioning how personal fulfillment will be achieved.
When not a thing I got is ever mine alone
Nothing owned is exclusively one's own, suggesting a lack of personal space or control.
So I pushed and pulled away, our lives' had been too intertwined
Attempting to create distance as their lives have become too interconnected, yet not experiencing improvement since being alone.
Ain't better off since I've been on my own
No better off after becoming independent.
And I'd like to set it right
Expressing a desire to correct or improve the situation.
Or maybe I'd rather go
Considering the option of leaving or abandoning the current circumstances.
Let the past slide by, just another stepping stone
Opting to let go of the past, treating it as a mere stepping stone in life's journey.
Won't you give me back my old eyes, I've seen enough
Reiterating the request to return to a previous state due to overwhelming experiences.
Lord I been down before but never felt this way
Expressing a deeper emotional low compared to past experiences.
Found the future's just a lie that had me feelin' rushed
Realizing that the future is not as promising as anticipated, feeling rushed or pressured.
Nearly lost control of the mess I made
Nearly losing control of a situation, possibly acknowledging mistakes made.
Careless and out of my mind
Continuing reckless behavior and unawareness of the gradual loss of something valuable.
Never saw it slippin' away
Remaining oblivious to the gradual deterioration or loss.
Always wastin' time when lord I got a road to brave
Acknowledging a history of wasting time while recognizing the need to face a challenging path ahead.
