Lyrics

No turnin' back, no turnin' back

No turning back, emphasizing irreversible choices or actions.

My friend you got a glassjaw

Describing someone as vulnerable or easily defeated, using "glassjaw."

But I like it

Expressing a liking or appreciation despite the vulnerability mentioned.

I see my head this time

Self-awareness of one's thoughts or consciousness.

And I'm, I'm a fugitive

Identifying as a fugitive, possibly feeling on the run or pursued.

But a less for the long run

Acknowledging challenges in the long-term but accepting them.

I'm aware, I'm aware that I, I can't get down

Awareness of personal limitations, unable to lower oneself.

I cheat the sun as I'm fallin' off

Cleverly avoiding the negative impact of the sun while falling.

As you pass them off on me

Taking responsibility for others' actions or burdens.

And I'm, I'm sorry but nobody's safe

Expressing remorse while asserting that nobody is completely safe.

Nobody's safe

Reiterating the theme that nobody is safe, emphasizing unpredictability.


No turnin' back, no turnin' back

Repetition of the theme, emphasizing the irreversibility of choices.

The circuitry has bound my face to a line

Feeling constrained by societal or personal expectations, like circuitry.

Blood pass this body

Reference to the passage of time and the lifeblood within the body.

But I feel that I've been saved

Feeling redeemed or rescued despite challenges.

Pulse with the heartbeats

Being in sync with life, symbolized by pulse and heartbeats.

Backtrack the clock

Reflecting on past events or decisions, wanting to reverse time.

It keeps on knockin'

Continual challenges or setbacks represented by a persistent knocking.

Its changed and betraying me

Feeling betrayed by change, possibly in relationships or circumstances.


I see no sun and I feel alright

Seeing no positivity (sun) but feeling content or at ease.

And I call out "its suffocating me"

Expressing suffocation, possibly due to external pressures.

'Cause nobody's safe

Reiterating the theme of nobody being safe, reinforcing the message.

Nobody's safe

Emphasizing again that safety is an illusion or unattainable.
