Lyrics
Feels like I never learned how to speak
Expressing a feeling of inadequacy in communication skills.
Just a poorly drawn mouth making sounds I don't mean
Describing a struggle to convey genuine emotions verbally.
I was told early on that it's dark before dawn
Referring to a common saying about difficult times before improvement.
But I can't see a thing and I'm starting to think that I'm
Feeling lost and unable to see a positive outcome.
Blindly unwinding, I'm fraying my seams
Metaphorically unraveling and causing damage to one's own well-being.
Spent half my life fighting to just stay asleep
Describing a prolonged struggle to maintain a state of rest.
Is this how it's supposed to be
Questioning the perceived normalcy of the current situation.
Seems like I never learned how to swim
Expressing a lack of proficiency in handling challenging situations.
But when someone needs saving I always jump in
Readiness to help others despite personal shortcomings.
Got a lifetime of working for everyone else
Highlighting a lifetime spent prioritizing others over oneself.
But when I'm the one drowning there's no one to help
Expressing a sense of abandonment when in need.
Now I'm blindly unwinding, I'm frayed at the seams
Continuation of the metaphorical unraveling and personal struggle.
Spent half my life fighting to just stay asleep
Reiteration of the ongoing battle to find rest.
Is this how it's supposed to be
Questioning the normality of the current challenging state.
Blindly unwinding, I'm frayed at the seams
Repeating the metaphorical unraveling and personal struggle.
Spent half my life fighting to just stay asleep
Reiterating the prolonged fight to maintain a state of rest.
I'll just stay asleep
Acceptance of remaining in a state of emotional numbness or avoidance.
Asleep
Repeating the acknowledgment of being emotionally detached or dormant.
Asleep
Emphasizing the continuation of a state of emotional numbness or avoidance.
Asleep
Concluding the theme of emotional detachment or avoidance.
