These Days R Mine
Navigating Shadows: Johnny Goth's Reflection on Imperfection and Loneliness
Lyrics
Woke up with
Waking up with a contemplative or reflective mindset
My head down in
Feeling low or down emotionally
Between bed sheets and diamonds
Caught between a mundane existence ("bed sheets") and aspirations or desires ("diamonds")
It's not worth it to be perfect
Expressing that striving for perfection is not worthwhile
Tryina hide from the light cuz I'm nervous
Avoiding exposure to scrutiny or attention due to anxiety
These days I never know
Expressing uncertainty about the present time or circumstances
Should I stay or should I go
Contemplating whether to remain in a situation or leave
Some days I'm runnin' low
Experiencing periods of emotional depletion or fatigue
I fake dead to be alone
Faking a sense of detachment or death to achieve solitude
All of my life I've been tryin'a be like you
Expressing a lifelong struggle to emulate someone else
In time I find it's the hardest thing to do
Acknowledging the difficulty in mirroring someone else's life
These days are mine
Claiming ownership or acknowledgment of the current state of existence
No future
Expressing a lack of belief in a positive future
I can't help it
Admitting a lack of control over certain emotions or actions
Lay me in a bed of red roses
Desiring a symbolic resting place surrounded by intense emotions (red roses)
A sweet taste of Psychosis
Describing a bittersweet experience or feeling of losing touch with reality
Fell in love with a girl in a black dress
Recalling a romantic encounter with a mysterious or captivating figure
How could I even know
Expressing surprise or disbelief about the significance of a person
You'd be the one I need most
Realizing the importance of someone unexpected
The days they come and go
Reflecting on the transient nature of time and experiences
Don't leave me all on my own
Pleading not to be left isolated or abandoned
All of my life I'll be waitin' here for you
Committing to wait patiently for someone throughout life
As time goes by something dies inside of you
Noting the gradual decay or loss of something vital within
These days are mine
Reiterating the ownership of the present moment
