Lyrics

Oh my God

Expressing surprise or disbelief, possibly in a challenging or questioning manner.

I can't be doing this again

Reluctance or frustration about repeating a past experience.

Already know how this will end

Awareness of the predictable outcome of a situation, suggesting a sense of resignation.

No, it's not just that I don't fit in

Clarifying that the issue goes beyond not fitting in, implying deeper emotional struggles.

It's every time I feel alone and there's no coming out of it

Expressing a recurring feeling of loneliness with difficulty overcoming it.


I don't know what I believe in and some days I feel like I should quit

Uncertainty about personal beliefs and contemplation of quitting, questioning the significance of life.

If nothing matters in the end, why should I waste my time on it

Raising existential questions, pondering the value of investing time in things with no apparent consequence.


My mouth likes to move faster than my brain

Acknowledging a tendency to speak hastily, potentially leading to unintended consequences.

It's always a race to say what I'm never really meaning to say

Describing a pattern of verbal expression that lacks genuine meaning, highlighting a struggle with communication.

An easy target with a thin skin, a light switch in my head

Portraying vulnerability, indicating sensitivity to criticism or negative experiences.

Flips on and off replaying situations I hope that you forget

Depicting inner turmoil with memories haunting and hoping for forgiveness or forgetfulness.

You want to see me free

Expressing a desire for liberation or salvation from internal struggles.

Then come and save me

Requesting assistance or support from others to break free from personal challenges.

Because I'm tired of waiting

Impatience with waiting for a change that is intangible or elusive.

On something I cannot see

Expressing frustration with the lack of visible progress or improvement.


I don't know what I believe in and some days I feel like I should quit

Reiteration of existential doubts and contemplation of quitting, echoing earlier sentiments.

If nothing matters in the end, why should I waste my time on it

Restating the questioning of the value of investing time in seemingly inconsequential matters.

I never used to be like this

Acknowledging a change in personal behavior or attitude, expressing self-awareness.

Colors drained from the world I'm in

Describing a loss of vibrancy or enthusiasm in the speaker's perception of the world.

Why am I expected to fit in

Pondering the expectation to conform, feeling out of place in social settings.

Out of place in the room again

Reiterating the sense of alienation or not fitting in, emphasizing a recurring theme.


My twisted tongue without a purpose

Describing a tendency to speak in a confusing or convoluted manner without clear intent.

Sometimes it's best to just stay quiet

Recognizing the value of silence in certain situations, possibly to avoid negative consequences.

Try to keep my foot out of my mouth

Expressing an intention to avoid verbal mistakes, highlighting a desire for self-control.

Try to keep regret from spilling out
