Save Yourself
Save Yourself: Battling Inner Demons in Quite The Quandary's Anthem
Lyrics
I've got a problem
I acknowledge a problem or difficulty.
With the way things go
I have issues with the way things are progressing.
Hasty now you size me up
Quickly, you assess or judge me.
I'm about to explode
I'm on the verge of exploding emotionally.
Fire cannons
There is intense emotion or passion, possibly aggressive.
You got me kicking, begging, screaming rebellion
You have me engaged in intense emotions, resistance, and defiance.
Its time to do away with this mess
It's time to eliminate this chaotic situation.
Exhale in one deep breathe
Breathe out deeply, release tension.
I'm searching spritely for a reason to live
I'm actively searching for a lively reason to live.
And in the absence of that
When that reason is absent, I resort to manipulating emotions.
I'm tugging heart strings that don't seem to give
Struggling with emotions or situations that don't respond.
I am my own worst setback
I am my own biggest obstacle to progress.
My own worst setback
Reiteration of being one's own obstacle.
My own worst setback
Repeated acknowledgment of self-sabotage.
Save Yourself
A plea or directive to prioritize self-preservation.
Run away (run away)
An urgent call to escape or distance oneself.
I'm much too busy digging my own grave
Too occupied with self-destructive behaviors.
I keep on clinging to the wrong things
Clutching onto negative influences or actions.
I'm led astray, I'm led astray
Being led astray by misguided influences.
I keep repeating all the same old habits
Repeating harmful patterns that need to change.
It's gotta change, It's gotta change
Recognizing the necessity for change.
I'm letting go of excuses I left
Letting go of excuses that hinder progress.
A little too far to the right
Overcorrecting or going too far in the pursuit of improvement.
Transitions trash me like I've been spent
Significant life changes are impacting me.
Just like a heart attack (just like a heart attack)
An intense and sudden impact, perhaps emotionally.
Holding on tightly to dreams that repeat
Clinging tightly to recurring dreams or aspirations.
And I've been trying to change them
Attempting to change persistent dreams or goals.
I'm tugging heartstrings that don't seem to give
Repeating the struggle with unresponsive emotions.
I've been my own worst setback
Acknowledgment of being one's own hindrance.
I wouldn't hold my breathe if I were you...So
Warning not to expect positive outcomes.
Save Yourself
A repetition of the plea to prioritize self-preservation.
Run away (run away)
A renewed urgency to distance oneself from problems.
I'm much too busy digging my own grave
Too busy engaging in self-destructive behaviors.
I keep on clinging to the wrong things
Continuing to hold on to negative influences or actions.
I'm led astray, I'm led astray
Continually being led astray by misguided influences.
I keep repeating all the same old habits
Persisting in harmful patterns that must change.
It's gotta change, It's gotta change
Emphasizing the urgency of change.
Change
A direct call for change.
It's gotta change
Reiteration of the necessity for change.
I'm tugging heartstrings that don't seem to give
Repeating the struggle with unresponsive emotions.
I am my own worst setback
Emphasizing being one's own obstacle.
I'm tugging heartstrings that don't seem to give
Repeating the struggle with unresponsive emotions.
(I've got a problem)
A reminder of the acknowledged problem.
I am my own worst setback
Reiteration of being one's own hindrance.
Worst setback
Repeating acknowledgment of self-sabotage.
