Cycles
Emotional Echoes: Navigating Life's Repetitive Waves with Raymond Patrick's 'Cycles'
Lyrics
Running in cycles
Expressing the repetition or routine in life, possibly a sense of monotony.
Running in cycles with you
Highlighting the shared experience of repetitiveness with a specific person.
Over and over
Emphasizing the continuous nature of the cycles being referred to.
The same old things
Describing the recurrence of familiar, possibly mundane, events or situations.
When is it gonna change
Pondering when a significant change or shift in the current situation will occur.
Feelings of happy, feelings of sadness
Acknowledging experiencing both positive and negative emotions.
A roller coaster of my emotions
Comparing emotions to a roller coaster, suggesting intense ups and downs.
And yet I always wonder
Expressing curiosity about the duration or conclusion of the ongoing cycles.
When is it gonna end?
Questioning when the repetitive patterns will come to an end.
Woke up feeling like I
Feeling a sense of inadequacy upon waking up.
Wasn't good enough
Expressing self-doubt and a feeling of not meeting certain standards.
For anyone
Feeling insufficient for others in various aspects.
It happens every time
Noting a recurring occurrence of feeling inadequate.
I open my eyes
Describing the moment of waking up and facing these emotions.
And all I want
Expressing a desire to understand one's own thoughts and feelings.
Is to talk to my mind
Wanting to communicate with one's own mind for introspection.
And ask why
Pondering the reasons behind the recurring feelings of inadequacy.
Ask why I'm
Continuing the introspective questioning of personal circumstances.
Running in cycles
Reiterating the theme of repetitive cycles, now emphasizing a shared experience.
Running in cycles with you
Expressing the shared nature of cyclic experiences with a specific person.
Over and over
Highlighting the persistent and recurring nature of the cycles.
The same old things
Repeating the idea of facing the same old situations or challenges.
When is it gonna change
Questioning when a transformation or change will occur in the repetitive patterns.
Feelings of happy, feelings of sadness
Acknowledging the fluctuating emotions, experiencing both happiness and sadness.
A roller coaster of my emotions
Metaphorically comparing emotions to a roller coaster ride.
And yet I always wonder
Expressing ongoing curiosity about the eventual conclusion of the cycles.
When is it gonna end?
Continuing the inquiry into when the repetitive patterns will come to an end.
My mental health is at an all time low
Indicating a current state of mental health being at a low point.
And I don't think that I can ever let go
Expressing difficulty in letting go of past experiences and decisions.
Of my past, of my decisions
Stating the continuous reliving of past choices and experiences.
'Cause all I do is relive them
Describing a feeling of being trapped in a cycle of revisiting past actions.
In my prison
Metaphorically portraying the mind as a prison with persistent thoughts.
And I can't get out of here
Expressing a sense of being stuck and unable to break free from mental constraints.
Running in cycles
Repeating the theme of engaging in cyclic patterns, now reintroducing a shared experience.
Running in cycles with you
Emphasizing the shared nature of cyclic experiences with a specific person.
Over and over
Highlighting the continuous and repetitive nature of the cycles.
The same old things
Reiterating the idea of facing the same old situations or challenges.
When is it gonna change
Questioning when a transformation or change will occur in the repetitive patterns.
Feelings of happy, feelings of sadness
Acknowledging the fluctuating emotions, experiencing both happiness and sadness.
A roller coaster of my emotions
Metaphorically comparing emotions to a roller coaster ride.
And yet I always wonder
Expressing ongoing curiosity about the eventual conclusion of the cycles.
When is it gonna end?
Continuing the inquiry into when the repetitive patterns will come to an end.
