Lyrics
So close to something bigger than your pocket
Expressing proximity to a significant opportunity or goal that transcends material wealth.
I tried to crawl out of the darkness
Attempting to escape a challenging or difficult situation represented by "darkness."
I tore a hole to let the light in
Creating an opening to allow positivity or hope ("light") to enter one's life.
Mad dash, I hit the ground and started running
Embarking on a rapid and intense journey, possibly metaphorical, with a sense of urgency.
Faster than ever but still reckless
Moving swiftly, yet without caution or careful consideration.
Another failure off my checklist
Acknowledging a previous unsuccessful attempt as part of a checklist of experiences.
The days seem to be squishing all together
Feeling time passing quickly, possibly due to a hectic or monotonous lifestyle.
Last time I laughed, I can't remember
Reflecting on a distant memory of laughter, implying a prolonged period of seriousness or hardship.
That probably doesn’t get much worse
Suggesting that the current situation may not deteriorate much further.
I'll wait for views that extend past my basement
Anticipating a broader perspective or success beyond the confines of a limited environment.
That's half of the reason i did this
Identifying a motivation for past actions, specifically the pursuit of a broader view.
Sailing the seas in search of friendship
Metaphorically searching for companionship or meaningful connections by navigating life's challenges.
Oh I know that
Recognition or affirmation of a known fact or situation.
I think I need you so I consume ’til I pass out
Expressing a perceived need for someone, possibly indicating dependence on external factors.
But you won't be the thing to help me when I fall down
Realizing that the identified need won't be met during challenging times.
I know you
Awareness of the other person's tendencies, possibly indicating a lack of receptivity.
Will never listen so you can do what you want now
Resigned acceptance of the other person's freedom to act as they please.
I'm tryna maybe save a life or two in tough crowds
Expressing a desire to make a positive impact or save lives in difficult situations or environments.
Oh I know that
Reiteration of the perceived need for someone despite knowing it may not be beneficial.
I think I need you so I consume 'til I pass out
Restating the desire for someone, potentially relying on consumption as a coping mechanism.
But you won't be the thing to help me when I fall down
Acknowledging that the identified need won't be fulfilled during challenging times.
I know you
Recognition of the other person's resistance to listening or understanding.
Will never listen so you can do what you want now
Acceptance of the other person's autonomy to do as they please.
I'm tryna maybe save a life or two in tough crowds
Reiterating the intention to make a positive impact in challenging situations or environments.
And I am just the
Self-identification as an example illustrating the importance of trusting one's instincts.
Perfect example of why you should trust your instincts
Encouraging others to trust their instincts based on the speaker's own experiences.
Before you push yourself a little too much one day
Warning against pushing oneself too far and risking negative consequences.
Please don't mess this up
A plea or caution to avoid making a significant mistake.
