Lyrics
It's like being under water
Feeling submerged or overwhelmed.
A slight pressure on your chest
Sensations of pressure, possibly stress or burden.
Everything around you blurs
Perception of surroundings becoming unclear.
Running out of air
Struggling and running out of emotional "air" or resources.
I'm treading all this water
Fighting against challenges, but becoming fatigued.
Getting weaker, growing tired
Weakening and growing tired in the struggle.
Now I'm drifting through a darker blue
Entering a more challenging or difficult phase.
Sinking deeper in the fading light
Sinking deeper into a difficult situation as light fades.
You can try to understand what it feels like
Expressing the difficulty of conveying the experience to others.
But I'm out here going through it on my own
Facing challenges alone without external support.
And I'm feeling all these things at the same time
Experiencing a multitude of emotions simultaneously.
Even though you're right here, I'm still alone
Despite the presence of others, feeling a sense of isolation.
Ooh I'm on my own
Emphasizing the independent struggle and solitude.
I've gotta get through this on my own
A determination to overcome challenges individually.
Like being locked into a dark room
Feeling trapped and isolated in a challenging situation.
No door leading outside
No apparent escape from the difficulties faced.
A small window with the perfect view
Having a limited perspective despite external beauty.
And there's nothing that I haven't tried
Exhausting all possibilities to improve the situation.
To be like one of them
Desiring to conform and be like others.
To be less like me
Wishing to be different from one's current self.
To fake the smile
Pretending to be happy despite internal struggles.
To fake happy
Faking emotions to mask true feelings.
But of all the things I'd rather be I'll still choose me
Choosing authenticity over conforming to others' expectations.
You can try to understand what it feels like
Difficulty in conveying the emotional experience to others.
But I'm out here going through it on my own
Facing challenges independently without shared understanding.
And I'm feeling all these things at the same time
Experiencing a complex array of emotions simultaneously.
Even though you're right here, I'm still alone
Despite proximity, feeling a sense of loneliness.
You can try to understand what it feels like
Challenges are personal and difficult to convey to others.
When I'm going through it you can't come along
Others cannot fully comprehend the individual struggle.
And I'm feeling all these things at the same time
Simultaneous experience of various emotions in solitude.
Even though you're right here, I'm still alone
Despite closeness, feeling a sense of isolation.
Ooh I'm on my own
Reiterating the theme of independent struggle and determination.
I've gotta get through this on my own
Expressing the need to overcome challenges individually.
