Lyrics
Feel like I'm a pest to you
Feeling like a burden or annoyance to someone
Stuck like polypore
Feeling trapped or stuck, like a polypore (fungus) that adheres tightly
I just wanna live my life
Expressing a desire to lead one's own life
But you're hard to ignore
Acknowledging difficulty in disregarding or overlooking the person addressed
Sometimes when I talk to you
Feeling uninteresting or tiresome when communicating with the person
I feel like I'm a bore
Perceiving oneself as boring during interactions
Thought I wanted you
Initially desiring the person
But now I need something more
Realizing the need for something more in the relationship
Feel like I'm a pest to you
Reiterating the feeling of being a burden or annoyance
Stuck like polypore
Re-emphasizing the sensation of being stuck or trapped
I just wanna live my life
Reiterating the desire to live one's own life
But you're hard to ignore
Highlighting the challenge of ignoring the person addressed
Sometimes when I talk to you
Experiencing a sense of dullness or monotony when talking to the person
I feel like I'm a bore
Repeating the feeling of being perceived as boring
Thought I wanted you
Initially desiring the person (repeated)
But now I need something more
Acknowledging the need for more than the current relationship offers
Livestock, let me raise all the stakes
Introducing the metaphor of raising stakes in life like livestock
And the pigskin-- balling like I'm a quarterback
Drawing a parallel between personal growth and a quarterback's balling prowess
Tried to rip me apart
Referencing attempts to break or undermine the person
Tried to get me to break
Resisting attempts to be broken or manipulated
Just like a Pisces
Comparing oneself to a Pisces, a zodiac sign symbolizing adaptability
Sign of the Zodiac
Referring to the astrological sign of Pisces
Nobody asked for the feedback
Addressing unsolicited feedback received
Nobody asked you to act like a maniac
Rejecting the expectation to act in a frenzied or irrational manner
Nobody asked for the piggyback
Declining unwanted support or interference
You wanna get some attention but only attack
Expressing the perception of seeking attention through negative actions
Feel like I'm a pest to you
Reiterating the feeling of being a burden or annoyance
Stuck like polypore
Re-emphasizing the sensation of being stuck or trapped
I just wanna live my life
Reiterating the desire to live one's own life
But you're hard to ignore
Highlighting the challenge of ignoring the person addressed
Sometimes when I talk to you
Experiencing a sense of dullness or monotony when talking to the person
I feel like I'm a bore
Repeating the feeling of being perceived as boring
Thought I wanted you
Initially desiring the person (repeated)
But now I need something more
Acknowledging the need for more than the current relationship offers
Feel like I'm a pest to you
Reiterating the feeling of being a burden or annoyance
Stuck like polypore
Re-emphasizing the sensation of being stuck or trapped
I just wanna live my life
Reiterating the desire to live one's own life
But you're hard to ignore
Highlighting the challenge of ignoring the person addressed
Sometimes when I talk to you
Experiencing a sense of dullness or monotony when talking to the person
I feel like I'm a bore
Repeating the feeling of being perceived as boring
Thought I wanted you
Initially desiring the person (repeated)
But now I need something more
Acknowledging the need for more than the current relationship offers
