Lyrics
So once again I'm looking down the bitter end
Contemplating a difficult or challenging situation, possibly reaching the end of a tough experience.
I've been here many times before I even see my footprints on the floor
Reflecting on past struggles, recognizing familiar hardships by seeing one's own footprints on the floor.
My name is still on the door and the roof over my head
Despite difficulties, the speaker's name is still associated with a place of shelter and stability.
I wanna jump out the window but I choose to sit instead
Expressing a desire to escape or avoid a situation, considering drastic actions but choosing to stay.
I guess I'm not as tired as before I got fired
Not feeling as exhausted as before, possibly after a job loss, or finding liberation in being set free occasionally.
Or maybe I just thrive on being cut loose once in a while
Suggesting a tendency to thrive in moments of freedom or independence.
You don't know what it's like to be down here alone
Highlighting a sense of isolation and the challenge of being alone in difficult circumstances.
You don't know what it's like to be a king without a thrown
Describing the loneliness of having authority but lacking a supportive environment.
And it makes you wonder
Pondering about life's uncertainties and challenges.
of all the things you ever did
Questioning the outcomes of past actions and decisions.
did it ever leave you anywhere
Reflecting on whether past actions led to any meaningful results.
Still nobody hears you scream, cos we are all just a moment in somebody's dream
Expressing a sense of unheard suffering, emphasizing the fleeting nature of individual existence within someone else's dreams.
Your money still sleeps under your bed every night
Addressing the persistence of financial concerns even in moments of vulnerability.
You are running naked through the park, while there is no shiver in the dark
Painting a vivid image of carefree behavior contrasted with a lack of fear in the dark.
It is a window to your soul to let it all go
Describing the act of letting go as a window to one's soul.
light a candle and sing, we are all just dust in the wind
Encouraging a symbolic act of releasing burdens and embracing the transient nature of life.
Control is a funny thing, you think you got everything down, straight and out
Commenting on the paradox of control, acknowledging the difficulty in maintaining control despite apparent confidence.
still you end up doing the same stupid thing over and over every night
Highlighting the recurring nature of self-destructive behavior despite efforts to control it.
You don't know what it's like to be down here alone
Reiterating the theme of isolation and the challenge of being alone in difficult circumstances.
