Lyrics
Two years yesterday
Reflecting on an event that occurred two years ago.
You ran away
Refers to someone leaving abruptly or escaping.
Leaving nothing but meaning and trouble I
Leaving behind only significance and difficulties.
How do I wipe away?
Expressing the difficulty of removing memories or emotions.
Was it all yesterday?
Questioning if everything happened just yesterday.
Takes me back through the years
Reflecting on past experiences and memories.
But don't get me started on words
Cautioning against starting a discussion about certain topics.
When you left me alone in the
Feeling abandoned in a dark and cold place.
Dark and the cold
Emphasizing familiarity with such situations in the past.
Although I've been there before
Despite previous experiences, facing loneliness again.
And the days become shorter
Time passing and days becoming shorter metaphorically.
The nights become longer
Nights becoming emotionally longer and challenging.
And I'm still here
Despite hardships, still persevering and existing.
So lay me down
Expressing a desire to rest or surrender.
And bury me softly
Wishing for a gentle and peaceful burial.
And bury me in the ground
Metaphorically expressing a desire for closure.
And wake up now
Encouraging awakening or realization.
Just do what you gotta
Urging action in alignment with personal values.
Just do what'll make you proud
Encouraging actions that bring pride.
And I know I'm so far from perfect
Acknowledging personal imperfections.
Most days feel I'm worthless
Feeling a lack of value on most days.
Cause this life ain't worth it
Questioning the worth of life.
But this life's not worthless
Contrasting the perception of life as valuable.
And all these expressions lead me through depression
Struggling with emotions that lead to depression.
While taking the masses
Being influenced by societal pressures and influences.
And drinking the last of us here
Consuming resources without regard for consequences.
So lay me down
Reiterating the desire for rest or peace.
And bury me softly
Repeating the desire for a gentle burial.
And bury me in the ground
Metaphorically expressing closure and acceptance.
And wake up now
Encouraging awakening or realization (repeated).
Just do what you gotta
Urging action in alignment with personal values (repeated).
Just do what'll make you proud
Encouraging actions that bring pride (repeated).
So lay me down
Reiterating the desire for rest or peace (repeated).
And bury me softly
Repeating the desire for a gentle burial (repeated).
And bury me in the ground
Metaphorically expressing closure and acceptance (repeated).
And wake up now
Encouraging awakening or realization (repeated).
Just do what you gotta
Urging action in alignment with personal values (repeated).
Just do what'll make you proud
Encouraging actions that bring pride (repeated).
And you're not alone
Assuring that one is not alone in their struggles.
We all wanna die sometimes
Expressing a common desire for escape or relief.
We all wanna cry sometimes
Acknowledging the universal experience of sorrow.
No one gets out alive
Emphasizing the inevitability of mortality.
And you're not alone
Reiterating the message of solidarity in challenges.
We all wanna run away
Expressing the desire to escape from difficulties.
We all wanna last till the days go cold
Expressing a wish to endure until life becomes challenging.
But this life is perfect
Contrasting earlier sentiments by stating life is perfect.
And you're not alone
Reiterating the message of solidarity and shared experiences.
