Lyrics
When I was younger, I thought that the world circled around me
When the speaker was younger, they believed the world revolved around them.
But in time, I realized I was so wrong
Over time, the speaker realized their initial belief was incorrect.
My immortal thoughts turned into just dreams of a dead future
The speaker's profound thoughts transformed into unfulfilled dreams of a bleak future.
It was a tragic case of my reality
The speaker faced a tragic reality, contrasting with their earlier perceptions.
Do you think you're indestructible
Questioning if the listener believes they are invincible and untouchable.
And no one can touch you?
Challenging the listener's sense of invulnerability.
Well, I think you're disposable
Expressing the speaker's view that the listener is disposable and not indispensable.
And it's time you knew the truth
Asserting that it's time for the listener to face a harsh truth.
'Cause it's just one of my lies
Admitting to telling a lie, implying there is deceit in the speaker's life.
Well, it's just one of my lies
Reiterating the admission of a lie in the speaker's life.
And all I wanna do is get real high
Expressing a desire to experience intense highs.
Well, it's just one of my lies
Repeating the acknowledgment of a lie in the speaker's life.
Why does my life have to be so small?
Questioning the limited scope of the speaker's life and its significance.
Yet death is forever
Reflecting on the permanence of death in contrast to life's transience.
And does forever have a life to call its own?
Pondering if eternity possesses a life of its own.
Don't give me an answer 'cause you only know as much as I know
Challenging the listener not to provide an answer since their knowledge is limited.
Unless you're been there once
Suggesting that understanding requires firsthand experience.
Well, I hardly think so
Expressing doubt that the listener has experienced the speaker's challenges.
Do you think you're indestructible
Repeating the earlier question about the listener's perceived invincibility.
And no one can touch you?
Restating the speaker's belief that the listener is disposable.
Well, I think you're disposable
Emphasizing the urgency for the listener to confront the truth.
And it's time you knew the truth
Reiterating the speaker's perspective on the listener's disposability.
'Cause it's just one of my lies
Repeating the admission of telling a lie.
Well, it's just one of my lies
Echoing the acknowledgment of falsehood in the speaker's life.
And all I wanna do is get real high
Reiterating the desire to experience intense highs.
Well, it's just one of my lies
Recalling the confession of a lie in the speaker's life.
I used to pray at night
Sharing a past habit of praying at night.
Before I lay myself down
Continuing the description of the speaker's nightly routine.
My mother said it was right
Indicating that the speaker's mother endorsed the nightly prayer.
Her mother said it too
Highlighting the generational continuity of the endorsed behavior.
Why?
Posing a rhetorical question about the purpose of the described actions.
