smell the coffee boil in the corner pot
Awareness of mundane details, like the smell of coffee, in the midst of chaos.
everything's in it but i can't make it stop
Feeling overwhelmed, with a desire to stop the chaos but unable to.
i ain't been drinking i say to the cup
Denying alcohol consumption to an inanimate object, possibly humorously.
it laughs at the little man as i drink up.
The cup's laughter could represent a mocking or indifferent response.
six big years since your head was around
Reflecting on the passage of time since someone's presence was felt.
lost it all in the middle there, your're back and now it's found
Experiencing loss and rediscovery, suggesting a reunion.

Wearing a smile that conceals one's true feelings or identity.
