Songs I Wrote About You
Echoes of Love Lost: Ready Steady Steroids' Emotional Journey
Lyrics
Another day gone it seems like forever
Feeling like time is passing slowly.
Another year down and that went to fast
A year has gone by quickly.
My wheels keep spinning but I'm going nowhere
Feeling stuck or stagnant despite efforts.
I've finally used up this last tank of gas
Running out of energy or resources.
I had this dream where I was always happy
A dream where happiness is constant.
But when awake I'll just fake a big smile
Pretending to be happy when awake.
And all that strength I thought would last forever
Inner strength diminishing over time.
It's taken a hit on these last couple miles
Struggling towards the end of a journey.
They said it's alright
Reassurances from others.
They said you'll be fine
Encouragement to persevere.
Keep your head up high
Advice to stay positive.
And you'll cross that line
Success is achievable with determination.
But I'm not alright
Personal struggle despite reassurances.
I don't think I'm fine
Not feeling okay despite claims.
Not without her
Feeling incomplete without a specific person.
I had to go and I tried to leave without you baby
An attempt to leave someone behind.
But now I know I was out of my mind
Realization of past mistakes regarding a relationship.
So all that's left are these stupid songs I wrote about you
Writing songs as a way to hold onto memories.
You never know what you got till you let go
Realizing the value of something after losing it.
I act the hero but heroes got problems
Even those seen as heroes have their own issues.
Cause even Clark can't withstand kryptonite
Using Superman's vulnerability as a metaphor for personal weakness.
So on those days when I struggle to wake up
Struggling to start the day due to personal battles.
It's not laziness I'm just stuck in this fight
Feeling trapped in a personal struggle, not laziness.
They said it's alright
Repeated reassurances from others.
They said you'll be fine
Encouragement to stay positive despite difficulties.
Keep your head up high
Advice to overcome obstacles.
And you'll cross that line
Persistence leads to success.
But I'm not alright
Personal struggle despite reassurances.
I don't think I'm fine
Feeling not okay despite claims.
Not without her
Feeling incomplete without a specific person.
I had to go and I tried to leave without you baby
An attempt to leave someone behind.
But now I know I was out of my mind
Realization of past mistakes regarding a relationship.
So all that's left are these stupid songs I wrote about you
Using music as a way to hold onto memories of a relationship.
You never know what you got till you let go
Understanding the value of something after losing it.
I'm lost inside my head, I can't escape
Feeling mentally trapped.
I try to just forget all my mistakes
Trying to forget past errors.
I had to go and I tried to leave without you baby
An attempt to leave someone behind.
But now I know I was out of my mind
Realization of past mistakes regarding a relationship.
So all that's left are these stupid songs I wrote about you
Using music as a way to hold onto memories of a relationship.
You never know what you got till you let go
Understanding the value of something after losing it.
I had to go, I tried to leave without you
An attempt to leave someone behind.
But now I know I was out of my mind
Realization of past mistakes regarding a relationship.
So all that's left are these songs I wrote about you
Using music as a way to hold onto memories of a relationship.
