Coil of Expectations
Escaping the Coil: Oatermiles' Journey of Liberation
Lyrics
Waking up to all these eyes on me
Feeling observed and scrutinized upon waking up.
It’s like the entourage and paparazzi
Comparing the attention to that of an entourage and paparazzi.
Are engraved to
Suggesting a deep connection or permanence to the attention.
These expectations
Referring to societal or personal expectations.
It’s like I’m on a stage for all to see
Feeling like being on a public stage under intense scrutiny.
The lights and shine it feels like gravity
Describing the bright lights and attention as a heavy force.
But there’s no space here
Expressing a lack of personal space.
There’s only pressure
Emphasizing the overwhelming pressure from expectations.
Oh can I live here
Questioning the possibility of a fulfilling life under these conditions.
Take me away please
Pleading to be taken away from the current situation.
To a place where
Desiring to be in a place where the burden is lifted.
I’m feeling weightless
Yearning for a state of weightlessness and freedom.
All this while I’ve climbed up to the top
Reflecting on personal achievements and reaching a high point.
But all these masks have claimed they’ve pushed me up
Acknowledging that masks (false personas) have played a role in success.
With words like “we care”
Noting insincere expressions of care from others.
Its dipped in fabrication
Highlighting the artificiality of support and care received.
Oh can I live here
Reiterating the desire for a life free from overwhelming pressure.
Take me away please
Repeating the plea to be taken away from the current situation.
To a place where
Reiterating the desire for a burden-free existence.
I’m feeling weightless
Reiterating the yearning for a state of weightlessness and freedom.
All their question marks
Referring to uncertainties and doubts surrounding the persona.
Wrapped around my mind
Describing mental entanglement caused by external pressures.
I’m entangled in a coil of all
Expressing being caught in a complex web of expectations.
These unrequested expectations
Describing expectations that were not asked for or invited.
Oh can I live here
Reiterating the desire for a life free from overwhelming pressure.
Take me away please
Repeating the plea to be taken away from the current situation.
To a place where
Reiterating the desire for a burden-free existence.
I’m feeling weightless
Reiterating the yearning for a state of weightlessness and freedom.
Oh can I live here
Reiterating the desire for a life free from overwhelming pressure.
Take me away please
Repeating the plea to be taken away from the current situation.
To a place where
Reiterating the desire for a burden-free existence.
I’m feeling weightless
Reiterating the yearning for a state of weightlessness and freedom.
Oh can I live here
Reiterating the desire for a life free from overwhelming pressure.
Take me away please
Repeating the plea to be taken away from the current situation.
To a place where
Reiterating the desire for a burden-free existence.
I’m feeling weightless
Reiterating the yearning for a state of weightlessness and freedom.
