Lyrics

A room filled up with faces and the air so thick I taste it

A crowded room with thick air; a sensory experience

Locking lips like they all wasted, tangled hips like it's a spaceship

Intimate connections, tangled bodies like a journey into the unknown

Heavy heads are racing down the hallways to the basement

People with burdensome thoughts rushing towards a lower level

Where the darkness fills the space and they can feel themselves erasing

Heading towards darkness, possibly seeking escape or self-obliteration


Can you feel yourself erasing?

A question about self-awareness and the act of self-erasure

They're bursting at the corners as the ceiling's getting shorter

Pressure intensifies, space constraints, feeling trapped

And I'm stuck between a talker and a VHS recorder

Caught between someone who talks a lot and outdated technology

The heat seeps through the border as our ice melts down to water

Increased intensity as heat crosses boundaries and ice melts

Can you feel it getting smaller?

Sensation of shrinking space and awareness of it


I need to be solo

Desire for solitude and independence

Freedom in the mono

Freedom found in being alone, away from the crowd

Find a space and let go

Seeking a personal space for self-expression

I need to be solo, solo

Reiteration of the need to be alone

Now I'm breathing in and I'm breathing out

Repetitive breathing signifies the rhythm of life and existence

Breathing in and I'm breathing out

-

I'm breathing in and I'm breathing out

-

Breathing in and I'm breathing out

-

Their mouths are dripping dryer as their souls are slipping higher

Describing individuals becoming emotionally drained

It's like treading on a wire laced with kerosene and fire

Analogous to walking a dangerous path surrounded by potential disaster

The night will soon expire as their bodies soon retire

Night ending, bodies retiring, perhaps indicating the end of a phase

Limbs entangled in kaleidoscopes of prima donna choirs

Complicated relationships depicted through vivid imagery


I need to be solo

Reiteration of the desire for solitude

Freedom in the mono

Emphasizing the freedom found in being alone

Find a space and let go

Encouragement to find personal space and release

I need to be solo, solo

Reiteration of the need to be alone

Now I'm breathing in and I'm breathing out

Continuation of the rhythmic breathing pattern

Breathing in and I'm breathing out

-

I'm breathing in and I'm breathing out

-

Breathing in and I'm breathing out

-

I need to be solo (breathing in and I'm breathing out)

Reaffirming the need for solitude

Freedom in the lie low (breathing in and I'm breathing out)

Emphasizing the freedom found in lying low and being discreet

Find a space and let go (breathing in and I'm breathing out)

Encouragement to find personal space and release, repeated

I need to be solo, solo (breathing in and I'm breathing out)

Reiteration of the need to be alone, repeated

I need to be solo (breathing in and I'm breathing out)

Reaffirming the need for solitude, repeated

Freedom in the lie low (breathing in and I'm breathing out)

Emphasizing the freedom found in lying low and being discreet, repeated

Find a space and let go (breathing in and I'm breathing out)

Encouragement to find personal space and release, repeated

I need to be solo, solo (breathing in and I'm breathing out)

Reiteration of the need to be alone, repeated
