Can't Complain
Navigating Life's Turmoil: Can't Complain by Lodge Cove Collective
Lyrics
Hey, I'm a bit of a bastard
Expressing a self-aware acknowledgment of being difficult or unpleasant.
I think that's all I can be
Suggesting a limitation in character, possibly feeling restricted.
You think that I'm a disaster
Referring to the perception of being a chaotic or disastrous individual.
I guess I'd have to agree
Agreeing with the notion of being a disaster, accepting the self-perceived label.
I can't complain but I've been feelin down
Acknowledging a situation without expressing dissatisfaction.
I only feel pain when I'm hearing this sound
Feeling emotional pain, possibly related to a particular sound or circumstance.
I'll keep my feet on the ground
Committing to staying grounded and stable.
Or I'll fall on the carpet and drown
Highlighting the potential consequences of not staying grounded, using drowning metaphorically.
I cracked my skull on the pavement
Describing a physical injury, a traumatic experience.
I can't remember a thing
Expressing memory loss associated with the injury.
I can't recall where the days went
Being unable to recall the passage of time.
So all I know is what people tell me
Relying on external sources for information due to memory loss.
I can't complain that I've been feelin down
Reiterating the acknowledgment of feeling down but not complaining.
I only feel pain when I'm hearing this sound
Linking emotional pain to a specific sound, emphasizing its impact.
I keep my feet on the ground
Reaffirming the commitment to staying grounded despite challenges.
Or I'll fall in the water and drown
Warning against the potential risk of drowning, extending the metaphor.
I shouldn't complain but I probably will
Acknowledging a reluctance to complain despite internal struggles.
There's not much to do with all this time to kill
Highlighting the challenge of dealing with excessive free time.
I keep my feet on the ground or I'll fall on the carpet and drown
Repeating the commitment to staying grounded to avoid negative consequences.
