Lyrics
I get so caught up in my ways
I often become entrenched in my habits and routines.
Sometimes I overlook the simple plains
Sometimes I fail to appreciate the simple and straightforward aspects of life.
I feel like certain times in my life
I experience specific moments in my life that coincide with times of pain and difficulty.
Are met with certain times for pain to thrive
Certain periods in my life seem destined for the presence of pain.
You're five foot five, not a hundred pounds
Describing someone who is petite and lightweight.
I'm scared to death of every single ounce
I am extremely afraid of even the smallest amounts of this person's influence or impact.
And worst of all is when it's calm
The most challenging times are when everything appears calm because I know that it won't last.
Cause I know the sea won't be calm for long
Anticipating that the calmness will be disrupted by turbulence or difficulties.
You bring me down
You have a negative effect on my emotions or well-being.
I walked right in through the rabbit's door
I entered a situation without fully understanding its potential consequences.
And walked right into the rabbit's hole
I found myself in a complicated or confusing situation.
I made myself an open book
I made myself vulnerable and transparent to others.
I made myself a sitting duck
I made myself an easy target for criticism or harm.
I don't know how I missed the signs
I failed to recognize warning signs or signals in my life.
I must have passed by them a hundred times
Repeatedly passing by indicators that should have alerted me.
You barely notice what I say
You pay little attention to what I say.
You're busy looking round the room instead
You are preoccupied with things around you, ignoring my communication.
I get so caught up in my ways
Reiterating the tendency to get stuck in established patterns of behavior.
I walked right in through the rabbit's door
A repetition emphasizing entering a confusing situation.
And walked right into the rabbit's hole
Reiterating finding oneself in a complex or bewildering circumstance.
I made myself an open book
Reaffirming the act of being transparent and open to others.
I made myself a sitting duck
Reiterating making oneself susceptible to harm or criticism.
I walk you down this rabbit trail
Leading someone down a confusing or perplexing path.
My feet grow heavy with every step
The difficulty of moving forward, feeling burdened with every step.
I stop to eat and take a nap
Taking a break from the journey, possibly escaping or avoiding challenges temporarily.
And now I can't find my way back
Feeling lost and unable to return to the previous state or path.
You bring me down
You contribute to bringing me into a state of emotional distress.
So down
Emphasizing the depth of emotional descent caused by the person or situation.
