Lyrics
Let's not wash our dirty laundry in public
Expressing a desire to keep personal issues private
Let's not speak about things we cannot change
Suggesting not discussing things beyond one's control
Let's just tell another story to ourselves
Advocating creating a different narrative for oneself
Let's pretend to be happy, even if it is strange
Proposing the idea of feigning happiness despite it feeling unusual
Since when you're gone it's just me, my monkey mind
Referencing the impact of the person's absence on the speaker's thoughts
who shoots me down, I hear no sound
Describing the negative influence of the speaker's own thoughts (monkey mind)
You're gone and I'm left with my monkey mind
Highlighting the absence of the person
I hear no sound, it shoots me-
Continuation of the impact of the monkey mind on the speaker
Since when you're gone it's just me, my monkey mind
Repetition of the impact of the person's absence on the speaker's thoughts
who shoots me down, I hear no sound
Reiteration of the negative influence of the speaker's own thoughts
You're gone and I'm left with my monkey mind
Emphasizing the absence of the person again
I hear no sound, it shoots me down
Continuation of the impact of the monkey mind on the speaker
My monkey, monkey mind
Repetition emphasizing the presence of the monkey mind in the speaker's thoughts
My, my monkey, monkey
-Monkey, monkey mind
-My, my monkey, monkey
-My monkey, monkey mind
-My, my monkey, monkey
-Monkey, monkey mind
-My, my monkey, monkey
-No more talking, no bullshit, no fights
Expressing a desire for no more conflicts or unnecessary discussions
No explainin' or blamin', damn right
Rejecting the need for explanations or assigning blame
I wonder why this time it hurts so much
Expressing confusion about the heightened emotional pain
Drags me down, I'm out of touch, thank you so much
Describing the emotional impact, feeling dragged down and out of touch
Since when you're gone it's just me, my monkey mind
Reiteration of the impact of the person's absence on the speaker's thoughts
It shoots me down, I hear no sound
-You're gone and I'm left with my monkey mind
-I hear no sound, it shoots me-
-Since when you're gone it's just me, my monkey mind
Continuation of the negative influence of the speaker's own thoughts
who shoots me down, I hear no sound
-You're gone and I'm left with my monkey mind
-I hear no sound, it shoots me down
-My monkey, monkey mind
Repetition emphasizing the presence of the monkey mind in the speaker's thoughts
My, my monkey, monkey
-Monkey, monkey mind
-My, my monkey, monkey
-My monkey, monkey mind
-My, my monkey, monkey
-Monkey, monkey mind
-My, my monkey, monkey
