Lyrics
I know myself,
Expression of self-awareness and introspection.
I know I think I'm so sick of people and I don't know why.
Frustration with people without clear understanding of the reason.
See, I just don't have patience for them,
Low tolerance for others due to impatience.
And I really think I can make it on my own,
Belief in personal capability and independence.
Lies... you hide words to keep from hurting me,
Accusation of dishonesty, hiding words to avoid causing pain.
I would rather know than be happy,
Preference for painful truth over comforting lies.
While you're smiling, were all dying,
Observation that everyone is facing struggles despite outward smiles.
With everyday that we go, we are just getting old,
Recognition of the inevitability of aging.
While you're dying, were all fighting,
Contrast between personal struggles and the collective fight for survival.
With everyday we go,
Continuation of the acknowledgment of daily challenges.
I know better than to get caught up in words of boredom,
Avoidance of mundane and uninteresting conversations.
Of no importance to me,
Dismissal of topics without significance.
So why do people keep talking? when all I want to do is hear myself.
Desire for self-expression amid a noisy environment.
The more I'm awake, the more I want to sleep,
Increase in awareness leading to a desire for escape or avoidance.
What a shame to want it that way,
Acknowledgment of a regrettable desire for a different reality.
But what a shame to be in this,
Recognition of dissatisfaction with the current situation.
"your life is such a bore, and me I feel so fucking alive",
Quoting others' perspective on life with a contrast to personal feelings.
LIES... every breath uttered a self re-assurance,
Denouncement of self-affirming statements as lies.
I wouldn't trust me much if I were you,
Expression of mistrust in oneself and a warning to others.
But you choose...
Recognition of the listener's choice in trusting the speaker despite doubts.
