Lyrics
I had an existential crisis
I experienced a deep questioning of my existence.
Reading Kafka on the couch
I read Franz Kafka's works while on the couch.
Until the edible kicked in
After consuming an edible substance (likely cannabis), its effects started.
Then I forgot what it was all about
The intoxication made me forget the purpose or meaning of everything.
I find comfort in the silence
I find solace and peace in moments of quietness.
And in the flicker of my phone
The subtle light from my phone screen provides comfort.
Until the battery runs dead
Until my phone battery dies, leaving me alone with my thoughts.
And it leaves me with my thoughts alone
During my youth, I had a belief in magical or extraordinary things.
When I was younger
Now, I navigate through the chaos and disturbances of life.
I believed in magic
I have difficulty recalling how my current state of being occurred.
But now I stumble
I have transformed into a predictable and routine-driven individual.
Through all the noise and static
Repetition of being a creature of habit.
I can't remember
Suggesting a need for self-care or healthier habits.
Quite how it happened
Possibly indicating a desire for vitality and renewal.
Now I've become this
The speaker reflects on their changed nature, now stuck in routine.
Creature of habit
Reiteration of being a creature of habit.
Creature of habit
Emphasizing the entrenched nature of habitual behavior.
Maybe I should drink more water
Suggesting a need for healthier lifestyle choices.
Maybe I should get more sun
Considering the possibility of needing more exposure to sunlight.
Maybe I'm dormant for the winter
Metaphorically dormant, waiting for a metaphorical spring or renewal.
Waiting for spring to come
The speaker may not have a belief in God, but acknowledges the possibility.
And I may not believe in God
Expressing a hopeful uncertainty about the existence of God.
But that doesn't mean he isn't real
Admitting uncertainty doesn't change personal feelings or emotions.
Though I hope I might be wrong
Reflecting on the speaker's emotional state despite uncertainty about God.
It doesn't change the way I feel
Repetition of being a creature of habit, highlighting a sense of stuckness.
When I was younger
Reiteration of the speaker's belief in magic during youth.
I believed in magic
Continued struggle amidst the chaos and distractions of life.
But now I stumble
Difficulty recalling the process of becoming a creature of habit.
Through all the noise and static
The speaker reflects on their current state of habitual behavior.
I can't remember
Suggesting a lack of clarity or understanding about the transformation.
Quite how it happened
Repetition of being a creature of habit.
Now I've become this
Reaffirming the speaker's entrenched routine and predictable nature.
Creature of habit
Final repetition of being a creature of habit.
This creature of habit
Reiteration of the speaker's recognition of their habitual tendencies.
