Lyrics
It's catching up to me
Feeling overwhelmed by something
I think it's time I put in the work
Acknowledging the need to work on the issue
Do it for you? I'm already tired of living with myself
Expressing fatigue with self-improvement for others
I'm useless, I'm worthless, I don't want to hear it anymore
Feeling a sense of personal inadequacy and rejection
This is useless, this is worthless
Reiterating a sense of futility and worthlessness
I'll clear the knot in my throat
Attempting to release emotional tension
I'm at the end of my rope
Feeling at the limits of endurance
It's getting hard to breathe and my hands are going numb
Experiencing physical and emotional distress
It's on my shoulder
Referring to a burden or responsibility
It's always watching, always wrapped around my neck
Describing a persistent and suffocating presence
I'm useless, I'm worthless, I don't want to hear it anymore
Repeating a sense of personal inadequacy and rejection
This is useless, this is worthless
Reiterating a sense of futility and worthlessness
I'll clear the knot in my throat
Attempting to release emotional tension
When you can't breathe with the weight on your chest - being content is relative
Reflecting on the difficulty of bearing emotional weight and the subjectivity of contentment
I won't stay complacent
Rejecting complacency and expressing a desire for change
I am greater than a sinking feeling
Affirming personal strength in the face of adversity
Or so I tell myself, just keep breathing
Self-encouragement to persevere despite challenges
I won't live my life for someone else's expectations
Rejecting societal or external expectations
I'm making things easier on you, like I promised
Making a commitment to ease the burden on others
I won't live my life for someone else's expectations
Reiterating the rejection of external expectations
I guess I'll take my own advice
Deciding to follow one's own advice and take control
I'm not helpless
Affirming personal strength and agency
I am more
Asserting personal growth and resilience
