Lyrics
Who do you wanna be when you grow up
Questioning the desired identity in adulthood
You see visions so blurry
Having unclear or uncertain visions
Peak out from the covers
Poking out from the safety of hiding
To see the sun poking
Observing sunlight breaking through
Out from the side of
Through a heavy, covered window
The heavy, draped window
Describing the window as draped
Gray is the shade
Referring to the color gray as a negative influence
You're throwing my way
Feeling negativity directed towards the speaker
Can't take another minute of this fake shit
Expressing frustration with artificial behavior
Have to be real or I'll lose my senses
Stressing the importance of authenticity
It's a consequence of madness
Linking consequences to mental instability
Trace your sadness into happiness
Suggesting a method to transform sadness into joy
From over there
Referring to a distant perspective
Become aware
Encouraging awareness from that distant viewpoint
Living a life of despair get's you nowhere
Rejecting the notion of progress in a despairing life
From over there
Reiterating the call for awareness
Become aware
Emphasizing the futility of a despairing existence
Living a life of despair get's you nowhere real fast
Highlighting the rapid downfall of such a life
Can't please yourself
Expressing the difficulty in finding personal satisfaction
Can't please anybody else
Acknowledging the challenge of pleasing others
You put your heroes on a shelf
Putting one's role models above self-care
Care more for them than your own health
Prioritizing others over personal well-being
From over there
Repeating the call for awareness from a distance
Become aware
Reiterating the importance of being mindful
Living a life of despair get's you nowhere
Rejecting the idea that a despairing life leads anywhere
From over there
Emphasizing the need for distant awareness
Become aware
Reiterating the point that despairing life is unproductive
Living a life of despair get's you nowhere real fast
Stressing the rapid and futile nature of such a life
Fast
Repeating the idea of a swift decline
Fast
