Re Run
Midnight Reflections: Navigating Life's Re Runs
Lyrics
It's 2 AM but it feels like its 5
Feeling a sense of time distortion, as though it's much later than it actually is.
Maybe it's time to shut my eyes
Contemplating the idea of going to sleep.
Cause I'm asleep but they're open wide
Experiencing a paradox where the speaker is asleep but their eyes are wide open.
Or maybe I'm awake but passed out inside
Suggesting a state of emotional numbness or detachment, possibly from exhaustion or inner turmoil.
Riding a couch in the dark all night
Spending the night on a couch in darkness.
Just the television
Only companion is the television.
It's a glowing blue light
Describing the TV as a glowing blue light.
If the day is over and I failed, I tried
Reflecting on a day's failure despite making an effort.
If I told you that it's alright, I lied
Admitting to lying about being okay.
I guess I'll feel less lonely when I shut up and let you own me
Expressing a desire for companionship even if it means sacrificing personal freedom.
Your slave, your go getter
Describing oneself as subservient, willing to do anything for the other person.
When you're on my mind, my mind feels better
Finding solace and improvement in mental state when thinking about the other person.
I love my life but I'm not alive
Acknowledging a lack of fulfillment despite outwardly loving life.
And maybe it's been awhile since I died
Suggesting a metaphorical death or emotional numbness that has persisted for a while.
To be or not to be, don't decide
Quoting the famous phrase, contemplating existence without making a decision.
Won't put my foot down won't let it slide
Refusing to take a stand or make a commitment.
Riding a couch in the dark, all night
Repeating the image of spending the night on a couch in the dark.
Yes I see my future and it doesn't look bright
Dim view of the future, possibly indicating pessimism or uncertainty.
If I take the easy way out I'll lie and live this re run over for the hundredth time
Contemplating a self-destructive path but acknowledging the repetitive nature of it.
I guess I'll feel less lonely when I ship up and let you own me
Reiterating the desire for companionship, even if it means surrendering.
Your slave, your go getter
Repeating the theme of subservience and eagerness to please.
When you're on my mind, my mind feels better
Finding mental comfort and improvement when thinking about the other person.
I guess I'll feel less stupid when I make myself less useless
Expressing a desire to feel less foolish by becoming more useful.
But wait, it gets better
Suggesting optimism or improvement in the situation.
I wish all my time was our time spent together
Expressing a wish for all time to be spent with the other person.
