Lyrics
Feels like I'm talking to myself
Expressing a sense of isolation or lack of communication with someone.
Dear God, I'm running out of breath
Feeling overwhelmed and struggling to communicate with a higher power (God).
If I could cut it from my chest
Desire to remove emotional burden, possibly to be more understood.
Maybe you would listen then
Suggesting that drastic measures might be needed for the intended audience to pay attention.
If I'm not speaking loud enough I suppose the blame is all on me
Taking responsibility for perceived lack of impact in communication.
So let me clear my throat again and start speaking properly
Expressing a need to restart or improve communication efforts.
I've tried for many years to gain your affection
Highlighting efforts over the years to seek approval or love.
Validating my fears, you pay me no attention
Feeling unnoticed and unvalidated, possibly due to fears and insecurities.
Falling on deaf ears
Emphasizing that attempts to communicate have been ignored.
Just wasting time here
Expressing frustration at a perceived waste of time in attempting to communicate.
It's like I'm talking to a wall, not a single word is sinking in
Feeling unheard, likening the experience to talking to an unresponsive surface.
You have no use for me at all, insecurity is setting in
Perceiving oneself as useless or unwanted, with growing insecurity.
It's not like I care, but could you take a second
Indicating a lack of genuine concern but requesting a moment of attention.
To see me standing here giving you my full attention
Expressing the act of standing out and offering undivided attention.
Whatever will I do
Expressing uncertainty or helplessness in the face of the current situation.
Every time I speak to you just
Reiterating the feeling of talking without being heard.
Feels like I'm talking to myself
Recalling the earlier sentiment of talking to oneself, emphasizing the isolation.
Dear God, I'm running out of breath
Repeating the sense of desperation and difficulty in communication with a higher power.
If I could cut it from my chest
Reiterating the desire to remove emotional burdens to improve communication.
Maybe you would listen then
Suggesting that drastic actions might be necessary for effective communication.
