Beyond the Line: Embracing Desire and Self-Discovery in M Rosenbaum's 'More'
Lyrics
I am in this by myself
I am facing this situation alone.
Though I feel like someone else
Despite being myself, I feel disconnected or changed.
Told you I was feeling fine
I previously claimed to be fine.
Straight enough to walk the line
I am sober enough to stay within societal boundaries.
Fuck my life and fuck my head
Expressing frustration with life and mental state.
I am going straight to bed
Choosing to escape problems by going to bed.
But you're the one who fell asleep
Addressing someone who fell asleep during a crucial moment.
All I think about is wine
Constantly thinking about alcohol.
I don't want it anymore
Expressing a desire to break free from the addiction to wine.
I don't want to live life here
Expressing dissatisfaction with the current way of living.
Cannot help but wanting more and more
Compelled to seek more in life despite challenges.
Behind the insulation
Referring to a hidden or protected space.
From behind a wall
Observing something from a distance or behind an obstacle.
I sort of saw it all
Having a partial or obscured view of a situation.
Now I've lived beyond my powers for so long
Living beyond one's capabilities for an extended period.
that I cannot recall
Unable to remember the sensation of falling due to prolonged endurance.
how it feels to fall
Reflecting on the loss of the ability to experience a fall.
Take your goddamn time
Encouraging someone to take their time.
Cause I am taking mine
Stating the singer's intention to take their own time.
Just let me take a dive
Expressing a desire to take a significant risk or plunge.
And more is more
Emphasizing the philosophy that more is better.
More is more
Reiterating the belief that having more is preferable.
