Lyrics
Each day's a struggle
Expressing the challenges faced every day.
To keep my head down and out of trouble
Struggling to avoid trouble and stay low-key.
Not a soul could ever pop the bubble
Describing a protective and isolating emotional state.
That she's made here
Reference to a protective environment created by someone.
I'm hiding in my bed, longer each time
Choosing to stay in bed longer, avoiding the challenges of the day.
I feel I should never leave this rest
Feeling the desire to remain in a state of rest and peace.
Seep is easier than being awake I guess
Implying that sleep is more comfortable than facing reality.
It's loud out of the sheets
Describing a noisy environment outside the safety of the sheets.
I swear I'm doing nothing wrong
Claiming innocence and a desire to go about daily life.
Just let me go to school and move on with my day
Expressing a wish to attend school and move forward.
Downtown I feel at peace
Finding peace in a specific location, possibly downtown.
No one could ever know my name
Wishing for anonymity, not wanting others to know one's name.
If I could I'd find all those who feel the same
Expressing a desire to connect with those who share similar feelings.
And we could all go away
Imagining a collective escape from challenging situations.
Dad admitted - she wasn't like this at the beginning
Revealing a change in someone's behavior over time.
Just for you I've been sticking with it
Staying committed despite difficulties for the sake of someone.
But she's changed
Acknowledging change without assigning blame.
Ain't no reason to blame, this happens with time
Explaining that change is a natural part of life.
She's still be your mother when I'm dead
Assuring a lasting connection despite separation.
So when we split we'll go live in a cloud instead
Envisioning an alternative, cloud-based life after parting ways.
It's overwhelming, it's killing me
Describing an overwhelming and emotionally taxing experience.
Holding this inside
Struggling to contain intense emotions.
I'm just a kid, I ain't ready this is impossible
Expressing feelings of unpreparedness and impossibility.
All of my memories have threatened to go
Threatened memories, possibly facing forgetting or losing them.
I'm too slow to keep up
Feeling inadequate and unable to keep pace.
I feel tied up
Sensations of being constrained or restricted.
Does it mean that I've actually messed it up
Questioning if mistakes have been made and consequences faced.
I didn't realize that I could be so powerful
Realizing personal strength and impact on situations.
And even though you can avoid screwing up
Acknowledging the inevitability of making mistakes.
There's bad luck
Recognizing the existence of bad luck.
It's loud out of the sheets
Repeating the noisy external environment and innocence.
I swear I'm doing nothing wrong
Restating the desire for a normal daily routine.
Just let me go to school and move on with my day
Reiterating the wish to go to school and move forward.
Downtown I feel at peace
Recalling a sense of peace in a specific location, possibly downtown.
No one could ever know my name
Re-emphasizing the desire for anonymity.
If I could I'd find all those who feel the same
Reiterating the wish to connect with those facing similar struggles.
And we could all go away
Reimagining a collective escape from challenges.
I've been in the way since I was little
Expressing a long-standing feeling of being in the way.
Now I'm in a city that makes me invisible
Describing a current environment that provides a sense of invisibility.
