Upside Down
Navigating Life's Upside Down Moments with Kieran Rhodes
Lyrics
Face down
Feeling defeated or overwhelmed
Got myself tangled up in this crowd
Caught up and entangled in a crowd of people
I should be home
Expressing a desire to be at home
I waited, I waited, I waited
Impatiently waited for someone's decision
For you to decide
Waiting for someone else's resolution
Now I'm upside down, oh I am
Feeling disoriented or confused
In a paper cup that's filling up
Metaphorical description of being emotionally filled up like a cup
With regret and people showing up too loud
Regret and people making too much noise
Guess I'll stay and talk some
Deciding to stay and engage in conversation
But the whole time I'm keeping my shoes on
Remaining ready to leave quickly
Cause' I gotta get gone
Expressing the urgency to leave
Yes I'm on the way out
Confirming the intention to depart
But I'm locked up and I can't find the key
Feeling trapped or restricted, unable to find a solution
Did you steal it from me
Suspecting someone of taking something valuable
Locked out
Being locked out of a personal space or relationship
Of my apartment, I got flushed down
Experiencing a sudden and forceful separation
I haven't slept
Having difficulty sleeping, possibly due to stress
One blink, I think
A moment of realization or understanding
It's best if you sit this one out
Suggesting someone to refrain from participating in a situation
Cause' I'm upside down, oh I am
Reiterating the feeling of confusion or disorientation
In a paper cup that's filling up
Continuing the metaphor of emotional overflow
With regret and people throwing up too loud
Regret and people being physically sick and loud
Guess I'll stay and talk some
Choosing to stay despite the negative environment
But the whole time I'm keeping my shoes on
Remaining ready to leave during the conversation
Cause' I gotta get gone
Reiterating the urgency to depart
Yes I'm on the way out
Confirming the ongoing process of leaving
But I'm locked up and I can't find the key
Feeling trapped without a solution
Did you steal it from me
Repeating the suspicion of something being stolen
Oh I promise it's not what it looks like
Attempting to explain a situation and seeking understanding
We'll just have to postpone
Delaying or rescheduling plans due to unforeseen circumstances
Cause' I'd rather be in front of you
Expressing a preference to be with someone specific
Singing songs to everyone of you
Desiring to share music and emotions with others
Guess I'll stay and talk some
Choosing to stay and converse despite the intention to leave
But the whole time I'm keeping my shoes on
Remaining prepared to leave while talking
Cause' I gotta get gone
Reiterating the urgency to depart
Yes I'm on the way out
Confirming the ongoing process of leaving
But I'm locked up and I can't find the key
Feeling trapped without a solution
Did you steal it, did you steal it, did you steal it, from me
Repeating the suspicion of something being stolen
Oh I'm upside down
Emphasizing the continued feeling of disorientation or confusion
