Lyrics
I'm wide awake
I am fully awake and alert.
Tied to an open flame
Feeling connected or drawn to something intense and potentially dangerous.
My chest is caving in
I feel immense pressure or anxiety that feels like my chest is collapsing.
From all the weight
Under the burden of various responsibilities or emotions.
Broken eyes
My eyes are not functioning correctly or experiencing distress.
Still here but I'm paralyzed
Physically present but feeling unable to move or act.
Trying to evade my own disguise
Attempting to avoid confronting my true self or feelings.
My body's drifting
My body is drifting away, becoming detached from reality or existence.
Farther from existence
Moving further away from being present or engaged in life.
Choking on the
Struggling with unexpressed thoughts or emotions.
Things I'll never say
Suppressing or holding back things that I'll never verbalize.
The walls are caving in
Feeling overwhelmed as if the surrounding pressures are closing in.
I can't resist it
Unable to resist or push back against a force or situation.
Maybe it's just better off this way
Speculating that perhaps things are better in the current state of being.
Some nights I might find a way to fly
Occasionally, on certain nights, I might find a way to escape or transcend.
Try to find a way to feel alive.
Trying to discover a method to feel alive or present.
Can't feel my face
Feeling numb or detached from sensory experiences.
Falling into space
Sensory perception of falling into an unknown, vast space.
Spiraling, but anchored
Experiencing a downward spiral but still tethered or rooted to a particular place or feeling.
To one place
A sense of drifting away from reality while remaining connected to a specific point or emotion.
My body's drifting
Similar to line 8: feeling detached from reality.
Farther from existence
Continuing to distance oneself from the experience of existing.
Choking on the
Struggling with unspoken thoughts or emotions.
Things I'll never say
Similar to line 11: suppressing things I'll never vocalize.
The walls are caving in
Reiteration of feeling overwhelmed or trapped by external pressures.
I can't resist it
Unable to resist or oppose the overwhelming force or situation.
Maybe it's just better off this way
Considering that the current state might be preferable.
