Lyrics
I think it's time to fade away
I feel it's time to withdraw or retreat.
from all the shit inside my head
I want to escape from the troubling thoughts in my mind.
I go instead, to a beautiful place
I choose to go to a serene and pleasant place.
you know I?ll find it.
I am confident that I will discover this peaceful place.
I've tried so hard to stay away
I have exerted considerable effort to keep my distance.
far away from all these days
Away from these repetitive and unchanging days.
that never change
Days that seem to remain constant and unvaried.
and with these things that
Reference to certain issues or challenges.
(chorus)
Chorus section indicating a recurring theme.
make me take those pills (oh yea)
Feeling compelled to take medication (pills).
amputating my emotions
Describing the pills as removing emotions.
make me numb so I don't care
The pills make the person emotionally indifferent.
keep checking my vitals
Continuously checking for signs of life or vitality.
still no sign of life in here
No indication of life despite the checks.
let the sedation take the place
Suggesting the preference for sedation over personal goals.
of all ambition for myself
Replacing personal ambitions with sedation.
there's nothing left
No aspirations or objectives remaining.
and now and then I?ll hide behind it
Using sedation as a shield or refuge at times.
it's in this place I try to stay
The desire to stay in this sedated state.
far away my life has changed
Life has changed, and the person is keeping a distance.
and everything is fading into gray
Everything is becoming indistinct and dull.
(chorus)
Reiteration of the recurring theme (Chorus).
(bridge)
Bridge section, a transitional element in the lyrics.
give me room so I can breath
Request for space to breathe, feeling confined.
the walls keep closing in I?m feeling
The surroundings seem to be closing in, inducing claustrophobia.
claustrophobic, increase the dosage
Considering increasing the medication dosage.
so I can feel alive again
Wanting to feel alive again through medication.
don't wanna feel sober, don't wanna feel pain
Expressing a desire to avoid sobriety and pain.
I really don't wanna feel the emptiness, the stress
Not wanting to experience emptiness and stress.
and all those things that make me take those pills
Reiteration of the factors leading to taking pills.
