Didn't Mean To
Unintentional Chaos: Penny Circus Unveils the Emotions Behind 'Didn't Mean To'
Lyrics
We were wasting days at your place
We spent time idly at your place.
You were in bed and I was a head case
You were in bed, and I was dealing with emotional challenges.
This isn't panic making my hands shake
This anxiety isn't caused by panic; it's making my hands shake.
God, what would your mother say
Reflecting on what your mother would think.
My worries spilling off the ashtray
My concerns overflowing like ash from an ashtray.
I promise it all will be gone by Monday
I promise all these worries will be gone by Monday.
We'll take the rest of the year
We'll take the remainder of the year and treat it like a holiday.
And call it a holiday
Find humor in the possibility that we can celebrate for any reason.
It's funny to think that we might
Reflecting on the idea that we might find joy.
Maybe we can find any reason to celebrate
Finding reasons to celebrate.
Nothing ever seems so bad
Nothing seems too bad until it becomes a significant problem.
Til it hits the fan
Problems escalate quickly.
But it happens once a week
Weekly occurrences of challenging situations.
All the time we wasted tracing patterns
Time wasted on unproductive activities.
Could be better spent pulling teeth
Suggesting that time could be better spent on more important matters.
I know I made you feel even worse
Acknowledging that actions may have hurt the other person.
But I didn't meant to
Clarifying that the hurt caused was unintentional.
And that's always my excuse
Expressing a recurring excuse for unintended actions.
I hope you hear a song that sparks a memory
Wishing the other person a positive experience triggered by a song.
It's three in the morning, we finished the bottle
Describing a late-night moment, finishing a bottle.
And you think I'm asleep
Suggesting unawareness while I'm awake.
I've been losing sleep and gasoline
Experiencing sleep deprivation and contemplation with fuel being gasoline.
Wondering what my neighbors think
Concerned about neighbors' perceptions during colder weather.
When the colder weather hits my chest
Sensations in the chest during colder weather.
Stealing breath I saved for cigarettes
Describing a feeling of breath being stolen, usually reserved for cigarettes.
The message on my phone
Referring to a message on the phone.
It says: "I miss you, I can't sleep
Expressing longing and insomnia conveyed through a dream.
I had another bad dream"
Weekly occurrences of challenging situations, affecting sleep.
Nothing ever seems so bad
Reiterating that nothing seems too bad until it becomes significant.
Til the shit hits the fan
Problems escalate weekly.
And it happens once a week
Weekly occurrences of challenging situations.
All the time we wasted tracing patterns
Time wasted on unproductive activities, echoing a previous line.
Could be better spent pulling teeth
Suggesting that time could be better spent on more important matters, echoing a previous line.
I'm only making everything worse
Acknowledging that actions may be worsening the situation.
But I didn't mean to
Clarifying that the worsening was unintentional, echoing a previous line.
And that's always my excuse
Expressing a recurring excuse for unintended actions, echoing a previous line.
