Lyrics

Sometimes you wake up early and the devil in your head

Sometimes, early in the morning, negative thoughts or inner struggles arise in your mind.

Says Hello, baby, how are you? Did you wish you woke up dead?

The inner voice questions your well-being and contemplates whether life is worth living.

You know you feel like crying and you know your face is red

Feeling emotionally overwhelmed, with visible signs like a red face, indicating distress.

You wonder if you ever really meant the stuff you said

Doubting the sincerity of past statements, questioning if they were truly meant.

I know you know you like the rain

Acknowledging a liking for rain, possibly symbolizing a connection to sadness or introspection.

I know you know it's in your brain

Acknowledging that emotional responses are rooted in the brain.

So cry a little harder, hard enough to be a bitch

Suggesting a call to embrace emotions fully, including the negative ones, to assert oneself.

Cause you're living under water and your hardware gonna glitch so

Highlighting a challenging situation where one feels submerged in difficulties, facing potential breakdowns.

Cry a little

An encouragement to express emotions by shedding tears, indicating strength rather than weakness.

Cry a little, little harder

An intensified plea to cry harder, emphasizing the therapeutic aspect of releasing emotions.

Sometimes you stay up late enough to smoke the devil out

Staying awake late to confront inner demons and negative thoughts.

Cause you know that 3 AM is when he's ready to hangout

Recognizing a vulnerable time (3 AM) when negative thoughts are more prominent.

You know you feel like screaming, you know you feel like screaming

Expressing the urge to scream as a form of releasing pent-up emotions.

You hold it like a breath until it's breaking in your mouth

Metaphorically holding back emotions until they become overwhelming and uncontrollable.

I know you know you like the rain

Reiterating the connection between the individual and the liking for rain as a metaphor for sadness.

I know you know it's in your brain so

Reaffirming that emotions are rooted in the brain, influencing one's responses to external factors.

Cry a little

Encouraging the continuation of expressing emotions through tears.

Cry a little, little harder

Emphasizing the need to intensify the expression of emotions, suggesting it as a form of empowerment.

Never gonna drain it, gonna down it til you drown

Suggesting a continuous struggle with emotions, emphasizing the inability to completely overcome them.

Drink it like you mean it, baby, drink it drink it down so

Encouraging the consumption of emotions metaphorically, implying a willingness to face and experience them fully.
