Lyrics

I want you to bring me to my knees

Desire for someone or something to have a significant impact on the speaker's emotions or beliefs.

Show me something that I've never seen

Seeking exposure to novel experiences or perspectives.

I'm self deprecating, hesitating

Being critical of oneself and feeling uncertain or indecisive.

Getting weak, on my knees

Feeling physically and emotionally vulnerable.

Self medicating is easy but

Using substances to alleviate emotional or mental distress.

I guess our next step is getting rid of the evidence

Considering the necessity of concealing or erasing the evidence of certain actions.

You fight hard but you don't fight fair

Observing a challenging, possibly unfair, competitive dynamic in a relationship or situation.

You pull your punches when you duck and weave and lead me on

Describing evasive behavior and manipulation within a conflict or interaction.

You fight hard but you don't fight fair

Reiteration of the unfairness or imbalance in the conflict previously mentioned.

You feint left but you never really go there

Highlighting deceptive movements without real commitment.

That's what they say about an ego

Commentary on the nature of ego, implying a certain perception or reputation.

(Oh, oh, oh-oh)

Repetitive vocalization without specific meaning, possibly signifying emotion or emphasis.

I'll sink into a chemical sleep

Expressing a desire to escape reality through chemically induced sleep.

But it's not an addiction

Clarification that the sleep isn't an addiction but a coping mechanism for a perceived necessity.

It's a sickness, it's a need

Describing the sleep as a vital requirement or dependency.

Self preservation

Acting in a way to protect oneself from harm or danger.

Imitating what I used to be

Copying or mimicking a past version of oneself.

Dishonesty is killing me but

Recognizing the destructive impact of dishonesty on oneself.

I guess our next step is getting rid of the evidence

Reiterating the necessity of eliminating traces or proof of certain actions or behaviors.

You fight hard but you don't fight fair

Reiteration of the unfairness or imbalance in the conflict previously mentioned.

You pull your punches when you duck and weave and lead me on

Describing evasive behavior and manipulation within a conflict or interaction.

You fight hard but you don't fight fair

Reiteration of the unfairness or imbalance in the conflict previously mentioned.

You feint left but you never really go there

Highlighting deceptive movements without real commitment.

That's what they say about an ego

Commentary on the nature of ego, implying a certain perception or reputation.

Repetitive vocalization without specific meaning, possibly signifying emotion or emphasis.
