Lyrics
I learn to walk
I embark on the journey of learning to walk.
I learn to walk
Repetition for emphasis - the process of learning to walk continues.
I jump the lines
I go beyond established boundaries or rules.
And count the clocks
I'm mindful of time, possibly feeling its pressure.
I chase the trucks
I pursue something significant or important.
I chase the trucks
Reiteration of pursuing something with determination.
If I can't make the next light first my heart will stop
If I can't achieve a goal quickly, it feels life-threatening.
My heart stops
Anxiety or stress causes my heart to stop momentarily.
And I'll do it to survive
I'm willing to do whatever it takes to survive.
Not fast enough oh
My efforts are not fast or effective enough.
Everything's gonna be alright
Assurance that things will be okay despite challenges.
Tears will stop, we will dry the night
Belief that tears will cease, and the night will end.
You got strong hands, spinning mind
Acknowledgment of strength and resilience in the face of challenges.
But I?
An introspective question about personal strength.
Doubt my legs, doubt my legs
Expressing uncertainty about one's own abilities.
They're on the edge
Feeling close to a breaking point or limit.
But I don't want to fight the fear again
Reluctance to confront fear again.
I keep hanging on, on to the wind
Clutching onto something intangible (wind) for stability.
And hope I'll never blow away
Hopeful desire not to lose oneself or one's purpose.
Doubt my legs, doubt my legs
Reiteration of uncertainty about personal abilities.
Onto the ice
Mention of being on unstable ground (ice).
I didn't ever mean to break your high
Unintentionally causing harm or disappointment to someone.
So I keep standing on
Persisting despite difficulties.
Onto the flakes
Standing on delicate ground or situations.
And hope I'll never let it melt away
Hoping to preserve something fragile.
I kill the sound
Actively suppressing external noise or distractions.
I kill the sound
Continuation of actively silencing disturbances.
If I can hear a single pin drop, be alarmed
Being hyper-aware of surroundings, ready to react to any disturbance.
I'll be alarmed
Preparedness and vigilance in response to potential threats.
My skin is tingling like electric firearms
Feeling intense sensations, possibly related to stress.
I'm undermined
Feeling weakened or challenged by external factors.
I think you understand the pressure that I fight oh
Awareness of the difficulties faced and the pressure to overcome them.
Everything's gonna be alright
Reiteration of the belief that everything will be okay.
Tears will stop, we will dry the night
Reassurance that pain will subside, and the night will end.
You got strong hands, spinning mind
Acknowledgment of strength and resilience.
But I?
An expression of doubt or uncertainty about oneself.
Doubt my legs, doubt my legs
Reiteration of uncertainty about personal abilities.
They're on the edge
Feeling close to a breaking point or limit.
But I don't want to fight the fear again
Reluctance to confront fear again.
I keep hanging on, on to the wind
Clutching onto something intangible (wind) for stability.
And hope I'll never blow away
Hopeful desire not to lose oneself or one's purpose.
Doubt my legs, doubt my legs
Reiteration of uncertainty about personal abilities.
Onto the ice
Mention of being on unstable ground (ice).
I didn't ever mean to break your high
Unintentionally causing harm or disappointment to someone.
So I keep standing on
Persisting despite difficulties.
Onto the flakes
Standing on delicate ground or situations.
And hope I'll never let it melt away
Hoping to preserve something fragile.
Again, again, again
Repetition emphasizing the cyclical nature
