Lyrics
What's the point of life
Contemplating the purpose or significance of existence.
If you ain't gonna live
An inquiry about the worth of life if one doesn't actively engage in living it.
Every single night
Consistently, every night, dwelling on specific thoughts or concerns.
I'm up thinking of this
An indication of persistent preoccupation with certain issues.
There's someone on my snap
Observing someone's distress through social media (Snapchat).
And there's blood on their wrist
Indication of self-harm by the presence of blood on the person's wrist.
They're crying all alone
Describing the isolation and pain of another individual.
And I'm writing bout it
Reflecting on these experiences through creative expression, specifically writing.
I wish that I could help
An expression of a desire to assist but facing limitations despite efforts.
But I'm trying my best
Striving and putting in maximum effort despite constraints.
And once I'm done with one
Transitioning from one issue or person to the next once one is addressed or resolved.
Then I'm onto the next
Continual emotional struggle leading to tears despite the wish to avoid it.
I don't wanna cry
An emotional contradiction felt when experiencing happiness.
But i just can't help it
Belief that attempts to improve mental health are ineffective.
Every time I'm happy
Expressing the challenge of dealing with anxiety and depression.
Yeah, I feel so selfish
Comparing friendships to unreliable sources of information (Web-MD).
Positive thoughts and meditation, No more than placebo medication
Enduring hardships due to mental and emotional difficulties.
Anxiety and depression try to roll up on me, I've got friends as hard to trust as Web-MD
Reflecting on a sense of failure and inability to recover lost time.
Suffering from illnesses And pondering the time
A cycle of exhaustion and self-destructive behavior that repeats daily.
I could not redeem, Exhaustion and self destruction a daily routine
Reiterating the previous lines, questioning the purpose of life when not actively lived.
What's the point of life
Repeating the initial inquiry about the significance of life.
If you ain't gonna live
Reiteration of the belief that life should be lived actively.
Every single night
Continual, nightly contemplation on existential matters.
I'm up thinking of this
Repetition of persistent thoughts and concerns during the night.
What's the point of life If you ain't gonna live, Every single night I'm up
Restating the idea that life should be lived fully, with no passive existence.
What's the point of life If you ain't gonna live
Emphasizing the importance of actively engaging in life.
Every single night I'm up thinking of this
Repeating the habit of contemplating deeply each night.
There's someone on my snap And there's blood on their wrist
Observing distressing scenes on social media platforms (Snapchat).
They're crying all alone And I'm writing bout it
Describing self-harm and isolation in another person.
I wish that I could help But I'm trying my best
Expressing the desire to help despite personal limitations.
And once I'm done with one Then I'm onto the next
Transitioning from one issue or person to the next after attempting to assist.
I don't wanna cry But I just can't help it
Experiencing tears despite attempts to avoid expressing vulnerability.
Every time I'm happy Yeah, I feel so selfish
An inner conflict felt when experiencing happiness.
Hollow like the creaking in the floorboards
Comparing one's emotional state to hollowness, devoid of substance.
Broken like the glass windows
Using broken glass as a metaphor for one's emotional state—fragile and shattered.
Closure's a foreign word for desperate men
Describing the unfamiliarity of closure for individuals in desperate situations.
As they lay, Petrified in bed
Depicting the paralyzed state of those plagued by fear or anxiety.
What's the point of life If you ain't gonna live Every single night
Reiteration of the contemplation about the value of living an active life.
I'm up thinking of this There's someone on my snap And there's blood on their wrist
Repeating the observation of distress on social media (Snapchat).
They're crying all alone And I'm writing bout it I wish that I could help
Expressing the desire to help despite limitations in doing so.
But I'm trying my best And once I'm done with one Then I'm onto the next
Continually moving on to the next issue or person to assist despite personal struggles.
I don't wanna cry But I just can't help it Every time I'm happy Yeah, I feel so selfish
Experiencing conflicting emotions when feeling happiness, leading to a sense of selfishness.
