Lyrics

I watched you drive away, every single one of you

I observed all of you driving away, each individual leaving.

That look was on your face, you were hopeful but afraid

You had a certain expression - a mix of hope and fear.

Returning to that place, that hollow, lifeless space

Returning to a place that feels empty and devoid of life.

I am rotting in my cage, afraid I'll never leave

I feel like I'm decaying within my confined space, fearful that I may never escape.


I tried not to let hours of thinking get to me

I attempted to prevent the weight of extended contemplation from affecting me.

I haven't got 'em yet, but all the answers will show up someday

I haven't received the answers yet, but I believe they will reveal themselves eventually.


What have I done now, is it too late to stop running in circles and start trying

I reflect on my actions; is it too late to break free from the cycle and make a genuine effort?

To look for the answers, if they exist

To search for solutions, if they indeed exist.

To fix all this damage that I have inflicted on me

To repair the harm that I have caused to myself.


And lately I've been thinking about what it is we're doing right now

Lately, I contemplate the nature of our current actions.

Am I just working towards nothing, am I destined to stay in place

Am I working towards something meaningful, or am I destined to remain stagnant?


Do you know what it's like to feel nothing on top of everything

Experiencing a numbness layered on top of existing emotions.

Both my shoulders pressed to the wheel, over and over again

Repeatedly pushing myself forward with a heavy burden on my shoulders.


What have I done now, is it too late to stop running in circles and start trying

I question my recent actions; is it too late to break the cycle and actively seek solutions?

To look for the answers, if they exist

To search for answers, if they are out there.

To fix all this damage that I have inflicted on me

To mend the damage I've inflicted upon myself.
