Lyrics
I lost my head
I made a serious mistake or error.
9 years since I left never found any purpose in the flesh
I've been aimless for 9 years since I left, lacking purpose in physical existence.
Pride kept me dead
Pride has kept me emotionally numb or detached.
Wasted time running 'round the next corner thinking there I'd find success
I wasted time seeking success in the wrong places, expecting it around the next corner.
Shoulda called you then
I should have reached out to someone during that difficult time.
I was chasing hustle, thought that if it hurt that I was doing my best
I pursued a challenging path, believing that if it caused pain, it meant I was giving my best effort.
Too in my head
I was too caught up in my thoughts, unable to appreciate the good things taken for granted.
Couldn't see what was good; all the thing that I took for granted
I couldn't recognize the positive aspects around me.
Right here right now right where I am
Expressing a desire to be present in the current moment.
Alice through the looking glass
Reference to the surreal and unpredictable nature of life, like Alice's adventures.
I know that I never really had a chance
Feeling that opportunities were limited or nonexistent.
Could I get another shot at a life like that?
Asking for another chance at a life with different opportunities.
Here right now right where I stand
Expressing being content with the current situation.
'Cause of small concessions and altered plans
Acceptance of small compromises and changes in plans.
I've moved along, overall I'm pretty glad
Reflecting on personal growth and satisfaction despite challenges.
But can I get another shot
Expressing a desire for a second chance at a different life.
At a life like that?
Reiterating the wish for another opportunity.
I lose my mind
Describing a state of mental confusion or distress.
She pulls me back l when I wonder what would happen if I'd done it right
A significant other helps bring me back when I contemplate the consequences of past actions.
Go back in time
Expressing a desire to go back in time.
Sure I'd do it different
If given the chance, I would make different choices.
Regrets would just transition
Regrets would be a natural part of the transition process.
I'm just that kinda guy
Describing a personality prone to making mistakes.
I'm better off
It's better for me now, in the present moment.
Here right now right where I am
Reiterating a sense of contentment in the current situation.
Alice through the looking glass
Reference to the unpredictable nature of life, akin to Alice's adventures.
I know that I never really had a chance
Feeling that genuine opportunities were lacking.
Could I get another shot at a life like that?
Repeating the desire for another chance at a different life.
Here right now right where I stand
Reiterating contentment with the current situation despite compromises.
'Cause of small concessions and altered plans
Acknowledging adjustments and changes in plans.
I've moved along, overall I'm pretty glad
Reflecting on personal growth and overall satisfaction.
But can I get another shot
Expressing a persistent desire for another opportunity.
At a life like that?
Reiterating the wish for a second chance at a different life.
