Lyrics
A dark sheep looking for a getaway
A person feeling like an outsider, seeking an escape
I got two plane tickets baby name the place
Offering a chance for a fresh start with a companion
Neighbors talk, plotting out his escape
Community gossiping, planning a way to break free
I ran downstairs and unlocked that gate
The narrator taking action to enable the escape
Well sometimes you do what you feel
Acknowledging acting on emotions sometimes
But most times I feel like shit
Expressing a general sense of feeling down
So slow down, feels like we're rushing away
Feeling a need to slow down and reflect on life
Tried my hold on to this impossible game
Attempting to grasp onto something challenging
And I know I'm wrong, what else can I say?
Admitting wrongdoing with limited words
I got a glimpse of this feeling, I'll try staying that way
Experiencing a fleeting positive emotion and aiming to maintain it
Woke up living in yesterday
Reflecting on past experiences
Walked to the store there's a game to play
Engaging in mundane activities with a sense of repetition
Scratch off ticket never did bring luck
Using a lottery metaphor to express life's uncertainties
On my back wishing I still gave a fuck
Feeling indifferent or detached from caring
Well sometimes you get what you give
Recognizing the reciprocity in life
But most people just take it
Observing people taking without reciprocating
So slow down, feels like we're rushing away
Reiterating the need to slow down and evaluate life's pace
Tried my hold on to this impossible game
Persisting in trying to overcome a difficult challenge
And I know I'm wrong, what else can I say?
Accepting responsibility for mistakes
I got a glimpse of this feeling, I'll try staying that way
Expressing a desire to maintain a positive feeling
It's just these little things, I wish they didn't mean so much
Reflecting on the significance of small things
It's such a silly thing, but it makes you think you're out of touch
Highlighting the impact of trivial matters on self-perception
So slow down, feels like we're rushing away
Repeating the need to slow down and reflect on life's trajectory
Tried my hold on to this impossible game
Persisting in the effort to conquer a challenging situation
And I know I'm wrong, what else can I say?
Acknowledging fault with limited words
I got a glimpse of this feeling, I'll try staying that way
Expressing a commitment to maintaining a positive feeling
I got a glimpse of this feeling, I'll try staying that way
Reiterating the commitment to preserving a positive feeling
