Listen In
Disconnected Echoes: Unveiling the Struggle in 'Listen In'
Lyrics
I've been texting all day, been checking my status
Expressing constant communication through texting, checking social media updates.
Is anybody lapping up the shit I'm laying down?
Questioning if anyone appreciates or understands the messages shared.
Connecting so much I'm feeling isolated
Feeling connected digitally but emotionally isolated.
Ground control to anybody listening
Using a space-related metaphor, seeking attention from anyone who is listening.
Ground control to anybody listening
Repetition emphasizes the desire for someone to pay attention.
Listen In
"Listen In" serves as a call for attention, a plea to be heard.
What can I say to make you feel the way I feel?
Asking what can be said to evoke the same emotions and concern in others.
To make you care the way I care?
Expressing a desire for mutual care and understanding.
To make you feel this deep despair?
Conveying a sense of deep emotional pain or sorrow.
What can I type to make me feel so validated
Wondering what words can be typed to feel acknowledged and validated.
That I could bury this phone in the hole in my chest
Using imagery of burying the phone, suggesting a desire to disconnect from validation through technology.
And cancel my accounts?
Expressing a willingness to detach from social media accounts and technology.
Listen In
Reiteration of the call for attention, urging listeners to pay heed.
I'm gonna spend another anxious ninety days
Committing to spending more time in a state of anxiety, possibly due to self-reliance.
Forgetting to ask for help
Forgetting to seek help, indicating a struggle with independence.
Trying to do it all myself
Attempting to handle everything without assistance.
I'm gonna spend another bunch of human years
Committing to more years trapped in one's thoughts without truly listening to others.
Stuck in my brain and never listening
Emphasizing a pattern of being stuck in one's own thoughts and not paying attention to external input.
Listening
Final repetition, underscoring the importance of listening and understanding.
