Lyrics

Need an escape

Expressing the desire for a break or relief.

From the everyday mundane

Seeking an escape from the routine and ordinary aspects of life.

Locked in suspended animation

Feeling stuck and immobile, perhaps emotionally or mentally.

Retrospection with 2020 vision

Reflecting on the past with a clear hindsight perspective.

And I'm afraid to look away

Expressing hesitance or fear of diverting attention from the current situation.

How long have I been out

Questioning the duration of being disconnected or inactive.

Please tell me

Seeking clarification on the current state of affairs.

Am I right side up or upside down

Uncertainty about the orientation or stability of one's circumstances.

Are you up for saving my soul again

Asking for support or redemption from a significant other.

My darling

An endearing term for the significant other.

Make it one last time for old times' sake

Expressing a desire for a final reunion for the sake of old memories.

Been holding out for a change

Waiting for a positive change but struggling to let go of the past.

But I can't let go of yesterday

Difficulty in moving on from past experiences.

Been holding out for a change

Reiterating the hope for change despite the challenges.

Would be a shame to waste away

Emphasizing the importance of not wasting opportunities for transformation.

So I reach out from within

Seeking change from within oneself.

Someone tell me

Requesting confirmation or insight about a new phase.

Is it the beginning of the end

Questioning if the current situation marks a significant change.

Manifest destiny put a hex on me

Suggesting a feeling of being cursed or controlled by fate.

I'm starting to believe things will never be the same way

Losing hope that things will return to how they used to be.

Hoping that I, I can change

Expressing a desire and intention to change personally.

Letting go of all this pain

Committing to releasing emotional pain.

I know that I, I can change

Believing in the ability to undergo personal transformation.

I can feel it happening

Sensing a positive change taking place.

I'm moving out of my own way

Moving past self-imposed obstacles or limitations.

Putting my failures on display

Being open about one's mistakes and shortcomings.

Everyone learn from my mistakes

Encouraging others to learn from the speaker's experiences.

Keep on pushing til the fever breaks

Persisting in efforts until a challenging period ends.
