Bored
Embracing Boredom: Unveiling the Inner Struggle of Escaping Life's Fast Pace
Lyrics
I live in fear of standing still
I fear remaining stagnant or not progressing.
That I can't do what I say I will
I doubt my ability to fulfill my promises.
It's not who I am
My identity is not defined by who I am but by external influences.
It's the way they built
The societal structures have shaped my mindset.
The kingdom in my brain
There's a complex mental landscape influenced by societal norms.
That city never looks the same
Perceptions change, and the mental environment is dynamic.
And I get lost
I feel disoriented and confused.
I just wanna do this right
I aspire to do things correctly.
I wanna be bored I've tried
I desire a mundane, simple life but struggle to achieve it.
But I forget to breathe when I'm runnin' so fast away from the feelings
Running away from emotions impedes my ability to relax.
So afraid to waste my life
Fear of wasting my life drives my actions.
That I do it in the meantime
I inadvertently waste time while trying to avoid wasting it.
And when everybody's sleepin' I stay up all night just to stare at the ceiling
Nighttime contemplation is a way to escape daily pressures.
I just wanna be, I just wanna be bored
Expressing a strong desire for a simple, uneventful life.
I just wanna be, I just wanna be bored
-I just wanna be, I just wanna be bored
-I just wanna be bored
Reiterating the desire to be bored.
Is it better
Questioning the value of strictly adhering to a plan.
To follow to the letter
Is it better to follow someone else's instructions?
Somebody's plan?
Referencing external guidance or authority.
The map's in your hands
The control and responsibility are in my hands.
It's not healthy
Dependence on self-criticism is detrimental.
Can't rely on my self-hate
Self-loathing cannot be the driving force for success.
To make my dreams come true
To achieve dreams, self-love is essential.
Love myself like you do
Comparing self-love to an external standard.
And I get lost
Continued feelings of confusion and being lost.
I just wanna do this right
Reiterating the desire to do things correctly.
I wanna be bored I've tried
Striving for a mundane life but facing challenges.
But I forget to breathe when I'm runnin' so fast away from the feelings
Running away from emotions hinders the pursuit of a simple life.
So afraid to waste my life
Fear of wasting life continues to be a driving force.
That I do it in the meantime
Inadvertently wasting time in the pursuit of avoiding waste.
And when everybody's sleepin' I stay up all night just starin' at the ceiling
Nighttime contemplation as a coping mechanism.
I just wanna be, I just wanna be bored
Reiterating the strong desire for a simple, uneventful life.
I just wanna be, I just wanna be bored
-I just wanna be, I just wanna be bored
-I just wanna be bored
Emphasizing the desire to be bored.
Plannin' every minute of my time
Overplanning every aspect of life.
Multi-taskin' all these jagged lines
Managing multiple tasks simultaneously, causing mental strain.
I can't think straight
Mental clutter impedes clear thinking.
Need patience for my brain to treat me kind
Patience is needed for mental well-being.
Look around it's so pretty outside
Despite challenges, the external world is beautiful.
I'm not too late
It's not too late to appreciate life's beauty.
I just wanna be, I just wanna be bored
Expressing the strong desire to be bored.
I just wanna be, I just wanna be bored
-I just wanna be, I just wanna be bored
-I just wanna be bored
Reiteration of the desire to lead a simple, uneventful life.
