Lyrics
If it's better, then why am I crying?
If the alternative is better, why am I experiencing sadness?
Why am I so struck with grief
Why am I deeply affected by sorrow?
About this one way things could be?
Why do I dwell on the possibility of a different outcome?
Why am I so stuck together?
Why am I feeling emotionally stuck or attached?
And I fixate on the same cyclone now
Continuously obsessing over the same emotional turmoil.
How's that help?
Questioning the effectiveness of this fixation.
How's that settle anything?
Wondering if this fixation resolves anything.
And when will it end?
Asking when this emotional struggle will come to an end.
'Cause it's been in my head for a long time
This thought has been persistent in the mind for an extended period.
And it feels wrong
The emotional fixation feels incorrect or misplaced.
I don't want it anymore, ah
Expressing a desire to let go of this emotional burden.
It spun in my head for a long time
This mental turmoil has been ongoing for a considerable time.
If it's better, I mean it's improved
If the situation has improved, it's not perfect, but better.
Not that it's fine, not that I'm mad
Clarifying that things are not okay, but the focus is on improvement.
It's more that I want to be precise
Expressing a desire for precision or clarity in emotions.
Well, alright
Acceptance or resignation to the emotional struggle.
When it visits unbidden in the night
Referencing the emotional turmoil that arises unexpectedly.
An' I know I'm gonna cry
Anticipating crying as a response to the emotional struggle.
I know you're trying to help
Acknowledging attempts at help, but not needing it at the moment.
But I don't need you right now, or ever again
Rejecting the need for assistance both now and in the future.
You've been in my head for a long time
The persistent presence of someone or something in the mind.
And it feels wrong
Feeling that the fixation is incorrect or misplaced.
But I don't want it anymore, no, ah
Expressing a strong desire to move on from the emotional struggle.
It spun in my head for a long time
This mental turmoil has been ongoing for a considerable time.
Get out of my head
An urgent plea for intrusive thoughts to leave the mind.
Get out of my mind
Requesting intrusive thoughts to depart from consciousness.
And it feels wrong
Reiterating the feeling that the fixation is incorrect.
It feels wrong
Emphasizing the sensation of wrongness in the emotional struggle.
And I don't want it anymore, no, ah, ah
Expressing a strong desire to move on from the emotional struggle.
It spun in my head for a long time, time
This mental turmoil has been ongoing for a considerable time.
