Dead Ends
Navigating Faith and Doubt: Dead Ends Unveiled
Lyrics
The older I get
The process of aging is being reflected upon.
The more I see Jesus
Perceiving a deeper connection with spiritual aspects, particularly Jesus, in small and subtle aspects of life.
Hiding in the little things, but yet
Despite the subtlety, there is a sense of Jesus being present in mundane details.
The older I get
Reiteration of the impact of aging on perception.
The more I'm convinced
Becoming more certain that Jesus is non-existent.
Jesus doesn't exist
Expressing a lack of belief in Jesus.
And everyone's a hypocrite
A general observation that people are hypocritical.
Self-righteous and full of shit
Critical view of others being self-righteous and insincere.
The older I get
Reiterating the impact of aging on understanding.
The more I know
As one ages, the realization of not knowing becomes more apparent.
I don't know
Admitting a lack of knowledge or certainty.
Anything at all
Acknowledging a general state of uncertainty or confusion.
What can I say?
Expressing difficulty in finding words to articulate thoughts.
I've got no words to waste anyway
Rejecting the idea of wasting words.
Unlike you
Contrasting oneself with others who are outspoken.
Shouting loud, standing tall
Describing others who are confident but unaware.
Not knowing, no one's aware
Highlighting the lack of awareness in those who are assertive.
At least not until you...
Suggesting that awareness only comes after certain experiences.
It's all dead ends
Life experiences are likened to dead ends, implying a lack of progress or resolution.
Forgiving and getting shit on again
Mentions the cycle of forgiving but being mistreated repeatedly.
I wanna be lovers, don't wanna be friends
Expressing a desire for a romantic connection over a platonic one.
Because you'll forget me
Fearing being forgotten in a romantic context.
Fall back into old habits
Anticipating a return to old, negative behaviors.
Bad habits I could never kick
Referring to persistent negative habits.
I could never stick with the things
Struggling to commit to positive aspects of a relationship.
That held me to you
Expressing difficulty in staying connected to someone.
Where does the time go
Reflecting on the passage of time.
Changing my time zone
Adjusting to new perspectives and experiences.
Forgetting old friends
Neglecting old friendships.
Not making new ones
Failing to form new connections.
Nothing I do
Frustration at the inability to prove sincerity or commitment.
Will ever prove to you
Recognition that actions may not convince others of sincerity.
I meant what I said
Stating a sincere intention despite foreseeing a lack of success.
Though it was a dead end
Acknowledging a situation or relationship with no positive outcome.
It's all dead ends
Reiteration of the theme of life being filled with unproductive situations.
Forgiving and getting shit on again
Repeated cycle of forgiveness and mistreatment.
Don't wanna be lovers, don't wanna be friends
Expressing a preference against a romantic or platonic relationship due to fear of being forgotten.
Because you'll forget me
Anticipating personal growth and moving forward.
Because I'll move on
Accepting the inevitability of moving on.
