Alter Ego
Unveiling the Inner Ghost: Martha Hill's Alter Ego Revelations
Lyrics
We seem to spend most of our time
We often find ourselves questioning our motives and wondering about our well-being.
Questioning our motives, asking if we're ok
Reflecting on our emotional state, pondering if everything is okay.
All my friends have got skeleton plans
My friends have plans, but they are not well-defined or concrete.
But I can't get off the sofa, I cancel cause so far oh the
Struggling to get off the sofa, canceling plans because of the comfort of staying home.
Summer's gone and passed me by
Feeling like time has passed quickly without making the most of it.
I've been in my bedroom getting off to cartoons
Spending time alone in the bedroom, finding solace in cartoons.
Eating so much pasta that I think I might die
Indulging in excessive pasta consumption, perhaps as a coping mechanism.
Haven't been to the beach for a long long time
Not engaging in outdoor activities for an extended period, possibly due to a lack of motivation.
Been stood up by my alter-ego,
Feeling let down by one's alter-ego, a different aspect of oneself.
Wanna go play, but she wanna stay home.
Desiring to go out and play, but the alter-ego prefers staying home.
Been stood up by my alter-ego,
Reiterating the disappointment of being stood up by the alter-ego.
Wanna go play, but she wanna stay home.
Expressing the conflict between the desire to play and the alter-ego's preference for staying home.
When I'm on the sidelines I start feeling like I'm fading
Feeling overlooked or marginalized when observing from the sidelines.
Stay at home jading
Choosing to stay at home, becoming cynical or disillusioned.
While the rest of you just live your little lives
Contrasting one's lifestyle with others who seem to lead more conventional lives.
I'll be on the sofa just a little ghost ha ha
Being a passive observer, feeling like a ghost while others live their lives.
Thank god it's nearly Halloween time
Anticipating Halloween as a time to express oneself without judgment.
So I can just be spooky without you looking at me
Yearning to be quirky or eccentric without facing scrutiny.
Mumbling shit when I pass on by
Encountering judgment or criticism when passing by others.
It's hard living in the city sometimes
Expressing the challenges of living in a bustling city.
Been stood up by my alter-ego,
Experiencing repeated disappointment from the alter-ego in social situations.
Wanna go play, but she wanna stay home.
Desire to engage in recreational activities, conflicting with the alter-ego's preference for solitude.
Been stood up by my alter-ego,
Reiterating the conflict between the desire to play and the alter-ego's inclination to stay home.
Wanna go play, but she wanna stay home.
Expressing frustration with the alter-ego's reluctance to participate in social activities.
I ride the bus to try to catch some inspiration
Taking public transportation in the hope of finding inspiration.
I shoot a dud and it goes right into my left brain
Encountering difficulties or setbacks in the creative process.
Maybe I should shoot south try and skip the rain
Contemplating a change in direction to overcome obstacles and challenges.
Cause the weather's getting weird and I don't feel okay.
Feeling uneasy or distressed due to the changing weather and overall circumstances.
Been stood up by my alter-ego,
Continuing to face disappointment from the alter-ego regarding social activities.
Wanna go play, but she wanna stay home.
Expressing the desire to go out and have fun, contrasting with the alter-ego's inclination to stay home.
Been stood up by my alter-ego,
Reiterating the frustration and disappointment of being stood up by the alter-ego.
Wanna go play, but she wanna stay home.
Emphasizing the conflict between the desire for recreational activities and the alter-ego's preference for solitude.
