Barely Hangin' On
Barely Hangin' On: A Soul's Battle with Heartbreak
Lyrics
My mind is numb my heart is racing
Feeling mentally numb while experiencing a fast-paced heartbeat.
I feel so wrong for ever chasin'
Expressing regret for pursuing something that now feels wrong.
My soul is lost and I'm drownin' in lies
Describing a sense of being spiritually lost and overwhelmed by falsehoods.
A case to make is that I might be right
Suggesting a possibility that there's a valid argument or point to be made.
You cracked my heart just like an egg
Using imagery of a cracked egg to convey vulnerability and emotional hurt.
Took more from me than all I gave
Highlighting a situation where more has been taken than given in a relationship.
They tell me I'm a lonely fool
Addressing external opinions labeling the speaker as a lonely fool.
But we both know that you ended it all
Acknowledging that both parties in the relationship are aware that it has ended.
I'm barely hangin' on
Expressing the emotional difficulty of holding on to the remnants of the relationship.
I'm barely hangin' on
Reiterating the emotional struggle of barely holding on.
It's not over until it's done
Asserting that closure is not achieved until the relationship is truly over.
I'm barely hangin' on
Repeating the theme of clinging to the remains of the relationship.
The truth is that I had to go
Admitting that leaving was a necessary truth.
And walk my way on down that road
Reflecting on the journey of moving forward down a chosen path.
But I don't know why my curtain is burning down
Puzzlement about why emotional closure is difficult, symbolized by a burning curtain.
You helped me feel but now I'm lost again
Acknowledging that the other person initially helped the speaker feel but now feels lost again.
I'm barely hangin' on
Reiterating the ongoing struggle of barely holding on emotionally.
I'm barely hangin' on
Emphasizing the continuing difficulty of maintaining emotional stability.
It's not over until it's done
Stating the persistence of emotional turmoil until the relationship is definitively over.
I'm barely hangin' on
Repeating the theme of barely hanging on emotionally.
I'm barely hangin' on
Reiterating the emotional struggle of holding on with little strength remaining.
I'm barely hangin' on
Continuing to emphasize the difficulty of barely maintaining emotional stability.
It's not over until it's done
Affirming that closure is not achieved until the relationship is completely done.
I'm barely hangin' on
Repeating the ongoing emotional struggle of barely hanging on.
I'm barely hangin' on
Reiterating the theme of barely holding on emotionally.
I'm barely hangin' on
Continuing to emphasize the emotional difficulty of barely hanging on.
It's not over until it's done
Stating that closure is not achieved until the relationship is conclusively over.
I'm barely hangin' on
Reiterating the persistent emotional struggle of barely hanging on.
