Lyrics
So long, subtle alien vibes
Expressing farewell to subtle, alien feelings or experiences.
Think I've been making progress in microscopic strides
Suggesting slow progress in small, barely noticeable steps.
So don't ask, 'cause I never could tell
Unsure about explaining, as the speaker couldn't tell.
All I need is four walls to make it my own hell
Desire for isolation, finding comfort in personal space even if it feels like hell.
Hell yeah, so what?
Nonchalant affirmation, accepting challenges with a positive attitude.
Watch an optimist drink half-empty cups
Observing an optimist facing negative situations.
Well I'll grow, we'll see
Expressing hope for personal growth, uncertain of the outcome.
If there's something good in me
Doubt about possessing positive qualities.
My eyes lit up when I saw it
A heightened sense of excitement or interest.
A way I had of looking for everything I wanted
Approaching life with a methodical search for desires.
My eyes lit up when I saw it
Recalling a positive reaction to a discovery or realization.
The view from where you sit
The speaker emphasizes the perspective or observation point.
And apathy, I was in love with it
Expressing a previous affection for apathy, a lack of emotional involvement.
So long, narrow hallowing room
Referring to a lengthy, confining space.
Thinking I'm turning back, it's the only way I knew
Considering a return to the familiar despite uncertainty.
And it shows for so long
Highlighting a persistent situation over time.
Turning half rights into full-on wrongs
Turning small mistakes into significant errors.
Oh fuck, I'm gone
An abrupt realization of departure, possibly from a situation or relationship.
Another 4 AM song
Creation or reflection at an early morning hour.
My eyes lit up when I saw it
Reiteration of positive reaction to a discovery or realization.
A way I had of looking for everything I wanted
Methodical approach to finding desires and goals.
My eyes lit up when I saw it
Repetition emphasizing the impact of the observed view.
The view from where you sit
The speaker underlines the importance of the observer's position.
And apathy, I was in love with it
Repeating the past affection for apathy.
And apathy, I was in love with it
Continuing to express love for apathy.
But not as much as the phone ringing
Comparing levels of affection, suggesting a stronger fondness for certain experiences.
Not as much playing my house
Expressing less attachment or interest in playing at home.
Not as much as the way her goddamn voice sounds
Highlighting the emotional impact of a familiar voice.
It's like taking in sun
Positive experiences followed by a retrieval, possibly indicating regret.
And then taking it back
Metaphorically taking back positivity or warmth.
I fall into old habits
Reverting to old habits, possibly negative behaviors or thought patterns.
I'm stepping over your cracks again
Stepping over cracks, possibly avoiding problems or challenges.
My eyes lit up when I saw it
Reiteration of positive reaction to a discovery or realization.
A way I had of looking for everything I wanted
Continued methodical pursuit of desires and goals.
My eyes lit up when I saw it
Repetition underlining the impact of the observed view.
The view from where you sit
Reinforcing the importance of the observer's position.
And apathy, I was in love with it
Repeating the past affection for apathy.
And apathy, I was in love with it
Continuing to express love for apathy.
