Let's Waste Time
Navigating Uncertainty: Owen Kimble's Reflection on Fear and Choices
Lyrics
These four walls are keeping me in
Feeling confined within these four walls.
And I can’t get out of bed
Unable to find the motivation to get out of bed.
Getting sick of the news and everything I’ve read
Growing weary of the constant news and information.
Is bringing me down
The negativity from what has been read is affecting the mood.
Cos’ this week I’ve been hesitating
Experiencing hesitation in decision-making throughout the week.
Every single choice that I make
Questioning every choice made recently.
I’ve built a fear of my own ways
Developing a fear of one's own actions or decisions.
And now I’m holding on for nothing
Clutching onto something without clear purpose or value.
Well I don’t know where I wanna go
Feeling lost and uncertain about life's direction.
But I want to get there
Desire to reach a destination without knowing where that is.
I’ve tried to but I’ll never let it show
Attempting to hide true feelings to avoid vulnerability.
Out of fear of getting hurt
Avoiding openness due to fear of emotional pain.
So I asked you what was wrong
Seeking insight into someone else's emotional state.
But you said
Receiving a response suggesting a desire to spend time without purpose.
“Let’s waste time and fall apart instead”
Choosing to waste time and experience a gradual emotional breakdown.
Don’t leave me hanging on every word I said when I was alone
Recalling past moments of isolation and loneliness.
My violent dreams are getting me down
Feeling burdened by unsettling and possibly aggressive dreams.
I’m living the same days over again
Caught in a monotonous and repetitive daily routine.
And you’ll have to excuse me cos’ I tend to forget
Apologizing for forgetfulness and lapses in planning.
All the plans that we made
The plans made with someone are slipping from memory.
My routine’s feeling so outdated
The routine feels outdated and in need of change.
I really wish you could change my mind
Expressing a desire for someone to influence a change of perspective.
But I fear I’ve thrown too much away
Regretting the loss of important things in the past.
And now I’m holding on for nothing
Clutching onto something without clear purpose or value (repeated).
Well I don’t know where I wanna go
Feeling lost and uncertain about life's direction (repeated).
But I want to get there
Desire to reach a destination without knowing where that is (repeated).
I’ve tried to but I’ll never let it show
Attempting to hide true feelings to avoid vulnerability (repeated).
Out of fear of getting hurt
Avoiding openness due to fear of emotional pain (repeated).
So I asked you what was wrong
Seeking insight into someone else's emotional state (repeated).
But you said
Receiving a response suggesting a desire to spend time without purpose (repeated).
“Let’s waste time and fall apart instead”
Choosing to waste time and experience a gradual emotional breakdown (repeated).
Don’t leave me hanging on every word I said when I was alone
Recalling past moments of isolation and loneliness (repeated).
I don’t know anymore
Expressing uncertainty and confusion about the current state.
I don’t know anymore
Reiterating a sense of not knowing and confusion (repeated).
I don’t know anymore
Continuing to express uncertainty and confusion (repeated).
I don’t know
Emphasizing the ongoing feeling of not knowing and confusion (repeated).
