I Wanted Everything
Dreams Fading, Chains Binding: A Tale of Regret
Lyrics
Memories - it feels like yesterday
Reflecting on memories that feel recent.
Im just this kid with all these crazy dreams
Characterizing oneself as a person with ambitious and unconventional dreams.
These moments seem to slowly fade away
Expressing the gradual fading of significant moments.
Aint nothing but horrendous evil schemes
Describing life experiences tainted by malicious and wicked plans.
I trip and fall again
Experiencing setbacks and failures.
Can't get rid of this ball and chain
Feeling burdened and unable to escape a difficult situation.
I wanted everything
Expressing a desire for abundance and success.
I wanted everything
Reiterating the longing for everything in life.
But now I'm old and tired
Conveying a sense of weariness and age.
Recall what I desired
Reflecting on past aspirations and wishes.
I could pretend and play along again
Considering the option of pretending and conforming to societal expectations.
Just smile even though I think Im doomed
Smiling despite feeling doomed and facing challenges.
You say I'm blessed but I don't know I am
Expressing doubt about being blessed despite external perceptions.
Cos I feel lonely in a crowded room
Feeling isolated and lonely even in a crowded environment.
I trip and fall again
Encountering further obstacles and stumbling in life.
Can't get rid of this ball and chain
Continuing to be constrained by a challenging situation.
I wanted everything
Reiterating the desire for comprehensive success and fulfillment.
I wanted everything
Expressing an ongoing and unfulfilled longing for everything.
But now I'm old and tired
Conveying the impact of age and fatigue on desires and ambitions.
Recall what I desired
Recalling and reflecting on past aspirations.
