Contemplating choices and options, asking which one is desired and visible on the wall.
a stitch up, slip of tongue
Referring to a deceitful situation or a mistake made in speech.
can’t save anyone from all this.
Expressing inability to rescue anyone from the current circumstances.
It’s your pantomime, you can pick your props
Describing life as a theatrical performance where one can choose their own elements.
I can’t really relate to you cos’ I’m so caught up selling my own life
Feeling disconnected from others due to being absorbed in one's own struggles.
we’re talking to ourselves
Acknowledging self-reflection or introspection, possibly in a negative context.
we’re talking to ourselves i don’t wanna know anymore
Expressing a desire to avoid knowing more about one's own thoughts or situation.
we’re talking to ourselves…..
(Continuation of self-talk, indicating a sense of isolation or introspective conversation.)
watching everyone’s signpost figures getting blown out
Observing the collapse or failure of others' guiding signs or directions.
no more hearts beating in full
Noticing a lack of genuine emotions or passion in people.
I got the message from a woman who makes her own doubt
Receiving a message from someone who doubts themselves, possibly reflecting inner struggles.
given that you work a lot, you’re a workaholic or it’s numbed fear
Suggesting a possibility of overworking, being a workaholic, or using work to escape fear.
but come on…
Encouraging or challenging someone to continue despite difficulties.
we’re talking to ourselves i don’t wanna know anymore
Reiterating a reluctance to delve deeper into self-awareness or understanding.
we’re talking to ourselves
(Repetition of self-talk, emphasizing the theme of internal dialogue.)
we’re talking to ourselves
-we’re talking to ourselves ahh…
(Continuation of self-talk, expressing frustration or resignation.)
switch it off
Suggesting a desire to disconnect or end the internal dialogue.
