Embracing Solitude: Pastel Blue's "Wallow" Reveals Emotional Isolation
Lyrics
Waking up at noon
Expressing waking up late in the day.
The suns being so rude
Describing the sun as rude, suggesting a negative mood.
Another sunny day but it feels rainy
Contrast between a sunny day and a feeling of rain, symbolizing inner turmoil.
Why am I still here
Questioning one's current situation or state of being.
Time is making fun of me
Perception that time is mocking or ridiculing the person.
I never though I could be this damn lonely
Expressing unexpected intense loneliness.
Well it looks like I’ll be sitting here another day
Anticipating spending another day in a similar emotional state.
If you need just call me tomorrow
Suggesting availability for emotional support tomorrow.
Cause my schedule’s all booked up and full for all day today
Indicating a fully occupied schedule for the current day.
Cause I’m just gonna wallow in my sorrows
Deciding to immerse oneself in sorrow and self-pity.
Wallow
Repetition for emphasis on the decision to wallow in sorrows.

-Stay awake till 8
Staying awake until 8, possibly referencing a specific time or duration.
At this point it’s not late
Downplaying the lateness, emphasizing a normal schedule.
Just ordinary normal schedule
Highlighting the mundane nature of the schedule.
Stars I thought were bright
Metaphorically expressing a loss of brightness or hope in familiar things.
Are now as dark as night
Comparing once bright stars to darkness, signaling a negative change.
So safe place turned into my hellhole
Transforming a previously safe place into a metaphorical hellhole.
Well it looks like I’ll be laying here another night
Expecting to endure another emotionally challenging night.
If you need me save it for the daytime
Suggesting to save requests for the daytime, indicating emotional unavailability at night.
Cause my schedule’s all booked up and full for all day today
Reiterating a busy schedule for the current day.
Cause I’m just gonna wallow in my sorrows
Reaffirming the decision to indulge in sorrow and self-pity.
Wallow
Repetition for emphasis on the decision to wallow in sorrows.
