Liberation Unveiled: Old Collin's Raw Journey Through Broken Bonds
Lyrics
And I've watched the ceiling unfold one too many times to count
Expressing fatigue or frustration from repetitive experiences of disappointment or disillusionment.
I said a couple mean things, and yeah you really deserve it
Admitting to saying hurtful things to someone who, in the speaker's opinion, deserves it.
But I could never see a turn around
Expressing skepticism about the possibility of positive change or improvement.
I didn't think I would have been that wrong, why should I care
Questioning the speaker's own concern or emotional investment in a situation.
Only play my songs that I made out of thin air
Emphasizing a focus on creating music as an outlet or distraction.
Oh my god, you get under my hair
Expressing frustration with someone who consistently irritates or annoys.
If you put on a front I'm gonna jump out of my chair
Warning that the speaker will react strongly if confronted with deception or pretense.
So would you put in the effort to be a good friend to someone else
Encouraging someone to make an effort to be a good friend to others.
I'm so under pressure, but never never chasing the sun because I stop when I don't know the rules
Feeling pressure but refusing to conform to expectations, preferring to stop when rules are unclear.
Give me something to do I got no time to be confused
Expressing a desire for purpose and clarity in a busy life.
I lost myself in all your ruses
Acknowledging a loss of identity due to someone's deceitful actions.
Play me down make me feel stupid
Feeling manipulated and demeaned by someone's actions.
I swear to god I'll fall asleep as soon as I don't have a headache
Expressing a desire for relief from stress or pain.
Think that I'm pathetic asking questions like a survey
Reflecting on self-perceived pathos in asking questions akin to a survey.
Unapologetic, text me every other Thursday
Asserting a lack of remorse and receiving messages on a specific schedule.
I've been bleeding out so can you hit me with a first aid kit
Desiring assistance or support in a difficult situation.
You just wanna instigate
Accusing someone of deliberately stirring up trouble or conflict.
I fucking told you that I don't wanna be mitigating
Reiterating a refusal to mediate or mitigate a situation.
I got you out of my life and I feel liberated
Expressing a sense of liberation after removing someone from the speaker's life.
Uh uh, and I've patiently waited here for a call back
Impatiently waiting for a response while declaring an end to debate.
And I'm done with debating it, but I fought back
Resisting manipulation or sedation and asserting the consequence of doing so.
And yeah, your constant sedation has only caused that
Recognizing the negative impact of constant sedation and vowing to block out negativity.
I'll figure out what you're saying and then I'll block that
Committing to understanding someone's words and taking action to avoid negativity.
You drew a line in the sand and then you crossed that
Expressing disappointment or betrayal after someone crosses a figurative line.
And now it's not my job to fucking hold your hand
Rejecting the responsibility of supporting someone through their mistakes.
To get you through your faults and I, uh
Declaring a desire to be true to oneself despite challenges.
And if I could withstand all of your bullshit plans
Expressing a willingness to endure challenges but not tolerate manipulative plans.
Then I could be myself tonight
Desiring authenticity and self-expression without external interference.
Give me something to do I got no time to be confused
Reiterating a desire for purpose and clarity in a busy life.
I lost myself in all your ruses
Re-emphasizing the loss of identity due to deceitful actions.
Play me down make me feel stupid
Feeling manipulated and demeaned by someone's actions.
Uh uh, and I've patiently waited here for a call back
Impatiently waiting for a response while declaring an end to debate.
And I'm done with debating it, but I fought back
Resisting manipulation or sedation and asserting the consequence of doing so.
And yeah, your constant sedation has only caused that
Recognizing the negative impact of constant sedation and vowing to block out negativity.
I'll figure out what you're saying and then I'll block that
Committing to understanding someone's words and taking action to avoid negativity.
You drew a line in the sand and then you crossed that
Expressing disappointment or betrayal after someone crosses a figurative line.
And now it's not my job to fucking hold your hand
Rejecting the responsibility of supporting someone through their mistakes.
To get you through your faults and I, uh
Declaring a desire to be true to oneself despite challenges.
And if I could withstand all of your bullshit plans
Expressing a willingness to endure challenges but not tolerate manipulative plans.
Then I could be myself tonight
Desiring authenticity and self-expression without external interference.
