Navigating the Maze of Time: Maren Hill's Reflections
Lyrics
Lately, lately my time is forsaken
Feeling neglected or unimportant recently, experiencing a sense of abandonment.
Lately I'm caught in the waiting room
Currently stuck in a state of anticipation or uncertainty.
Wasting my breath tryna get somewhere soon
Exhausted from futile efforts to progress quickly.
I thought today was yesterday and tomorrow is a week away
Confusion about the passage of time, struggling with a distorted sense of time.
Oh I know the months are changing
Aware of the changing months but feeling a sense of emptiness or stagnation.
But every box on the page looks the same: blank
Everything in life seems monotonous or uninspiring.
I heard it was a holiday
Aware of a holiday but not participating or finding joy in it.
But I forgot to celebrate
Failed to celebrate due to emotional struggles.
'Cuz all I've been, yeah all I've been is breaking
Consistently experiencing emotional breakdowns or challenges.
Lately, lately my time is forsaken
Continuing to feel ignored or neglected in recent times.
Lately I'm caught in the waiting room
Stuck in a waiting period, longing for progress.
Wasting my breath tryna get somewhere soon
Struggling to make progress, feeling like time is slipping away.
I'm taking, taking the mess that I made here
Accepting and dealing with the consequences of one's mistakes.
Taking my best where I don't feel used
Taking personal strengths to a place where they are appreciated.
I won't flatline over you
Refusing to let a relationship or situation lead to emotional numbness or indifference.
Wiping down the mirror for a look at my reflection
Examining oneself, trying to understand personal changes.
I can't tell if it's my eyes or if the glass is bending backwards
Feeling disoriented or unsure about self-perception.
I'm not used to what I see, my body's changing right in front of me
Physical changes in the body that are unexpected or unfamiliar.
And it feels like a truce but I don't know who's the enemy
Experiencing a sense of truce or peace, but uncertain about the source of conflict.
Lately, lately my time is forsaken
Continued sense of being overlooked or neglected.
Lately I'm caught in the waiting room
Still in a waiting period, feeling stuck.
Wasting my breath tryna get somewhere soon
Struggling to make progress, urgency to move forward.
I'm taking, taking the mess that I made here
Dealing with the consequences of personal mistakes.
Taking my best where I don't feel used
Taking personal strengths where they are valued and appreciated.
I won't flatline over you
Commitment to maintaining vitality and emotional responsiveness.
Help me find the ground
Plea for support in finding stability or emotional grounding.
Feet don't fail me now
A request for resilience and perseverance.
I'll give up my crown
Willing to let go of personal pride or achievements for stability.
If I land somehow
Openness to relinquishing control for a chance at stability.
Help me find the ground
A plea for support in finding emotional stability.
Feet don't fail me now
Reiteration of the need for emotional support and stability.
I'll give up my crown
Willingness to sacrifice personal achievements for emotional grounding.
If I land somehow
Openness to letting go of control in exchange for stability.
Lately, lately my time is forsaken
Continued sense of being overlooked or neglected.
Lately I'm caught in the waiting room
Still in a waiting period, feeling stuck.
Wasting my breath tryna get somewhere soon
Struggling to make progress, urgency to move forward.
I'm taking, taking the mess that I made here
Dealing with the consequences of personal mistakes.
Taking my best where I don't feel used
Taking personal strengths where they are valued and appreciated.
I won't flatline over you
Commitment to maintaining vitality and emotional responsiveness.
