Lyrics

I've been dozing outside, wondering how I got there in the morning

I've been dozing outside, reflecting on how I ended up in that place in the morning.

In my mind, there's no light, it's so dark and without warning

In my thoughts, there is darkness with no prior warning.

I wake up, it's so bright in the sunlight and I'm burning

Upon waking up, the brightness of sunlight is overwhelming, and there's a sense of burning.

To tell you I'm alright, where I go, there is no crying

To assure you that I'm fine, I go where there's no reason for tears.

When I wake up, I am right beside you

Upon awakening, I find myself next to you.

But I'm crying cause it's never true

Despite being physically close, I cry because the reality doesn't match.

And I'm dreaming about you every night

I dream about you every night.

So no, I'm not alright

Contrary to appearances, I am not okay.

I've been walking to nowhere, feeling like I don't care anymore

I've been aimlessly walking, feeling a sense of indifference.

Trying to get there, even just to get out of the noise

Striving to reach a destination, just to escape the surrounding noise.

Sedatives take me, don't try to wake me, I'm gone

Sedatives take control, and I'm unreachable in my state of numbness.

You shook me, don't push me again, I'll fall

You've disturbed me, and further pressure might cause me to collapse.

When I wake up, I am right beside you

Upon waking up, I find myself next to you.

But I'm crying cause it's never true

Despite proximity, I cry because reality doesn't align with my desires.

And I'm dreaming about you every night

I dream about you every night.

So no, I'm not alright

Despite appearances, I am not okay.

Sometimes it feels like I'm the only thing that's holding me back

At times, it feels like I'm the obstacle hindering my own progress.

And now I wonder where I'm looking when I'm on the attack

Now I question where my focus is when I'm in a confrontational situation.

It's so bad, it's so bad, it's so bad, it's so bad

Expressing the severity of the situation, emphasizing it's really bad.

Sometimes it feels like I'm the only thing that's holding me back

Reiterating the feeling of being my own impediment.

And now I wonder where I'm looking when I'm on the attack

Continuing to question where my attention is during challenging moments.

It's so bad, it's so bad, it's so bad, it's so bad

Emphasizing the severity of the situation, repeating that it's really bad.

When I wake up, I am right beside you

Upon waking up, I find myself next to you.

But I'm crying cause it's never true

Despite closeness, I cry because reality doesn't align with my desires.

When I wake up, I am right beside you

Upon waking up, I find myself next to you.

But I'm crying cause it's never true

Despite proximity, I cry because reality doesn't align with my desires.

And I'm dreaming about you every night

I dream about you every night.

So no, I'm not alright

Despite appearances, I am not okay.

So no, I'm not alright

Reaffirming that, despite outward appearances, I am not okay.
