Lyrics
It's hard for me to say
Expressing difficulty in verbalizing personal feelings.
That it's been hard for me
Acknowledging a challenging period in the speaker's life.
To get over the pain
Referencing lingering emotional distress.
The type that leaves you sleepless
Describing a profound, sleep-depriving pain.
Hopeless worthless games that play
Highlighting negative emotions and futile games.
Inside of my brain
Describing internal struggles within the mind.
After you don't feel the same
Expressing a sense of emotional detachment from someone.
I feel like I've been ruined
Feeling a profound sense of personal damage or ruin.
I awake from this misery and
Awakening from a state of misery.
I can't change the way I was treated
Expressing inability to change past treatment or behavior towards the speaker.
It haunts me after you pick up and
Haunted by memories after someone leaves.
Left me with scars that I see
Referring to enduring emotional wounds or scars.
Are still bleeding
Emphasizing the ongoing, bleeding nature of the scars.
Are still bleeding
Repetition for emphasis on the persistent pain.
You thought you were kicked when you were down
Describing a feeling of being kicked while already down.
I've been on the same floor before
Having experienced a similar low point previously.
I know how to pick myself up
Asserting resilience and the ability to overcome challenges.
Before I even drown
Commitment to self-recovery before succumbing to adversity.
Before I even allow you to run me down
Resisting external attempts to undermine the speaker's resolve.
I awake from this misery
Repetition of awakening from misery, reinforcing the theme.
I can't change the way I was treated
Reiterating the inability to change past treatment.
It haunts me after you pick up and
Reemphasizing haunting memories after separation.
Left me with scars that I see
Repetition of enduring scars and ongoing emotional pain.
Are still bleeding
Continued emphasis on the persistent, bleeding nature of scars.
Are still bleeding
Repetition for final emphasis on the enduring emotional wounds.
