Lyrics
I know you got my letter
I acknowledge that you received my letter
And it's not getting better
The situation is not improving
My lamp is low, the flame is thin
My energy or enthusiasm is diminishing
Attached within
Emotionally connected or stuck within
My note of resignation
I communicate my resignation
God, I need a vacation
Expressing a strong desire for a break or escape
Train stations and terminals of cognition
Referring to mental states and decision-making points
I've made my decision
I have made my choice
But at the end of the day, you got no say
Your opinion doesn't matter in the end
Because it's not your fucking brains on the wall
Emphasizing a personal struggle or hardship
And you're not the one when it's all said and done
You won't be the one facing the consequences
Who's jumping off the earth to fall away
A metaphorical leap from the world, a drastic change
I miss your voice and after
I long for the sound of your voice
All of that it don't matter
Despite everything, it becomes insignificant
Looming in the background
An impending issue or challenge in the background
Unexpected confound
An unexpected and confusing situation
Didn't wanna forget at first
Initially reluctant to forget, now acknowledging fault
Now I know I'm the worst
Realization of personal shortcomings
Now it's looping in slow motion
A recurring situation, perhaps replaying in memory
My head says I'm better off
Intellectually, I believe I'm better off
Says I'm better off dead
Strongly considering the idea of being better off dead
But at the end of the day, you got no say
Your input or opinion is not influential
Because it's not your fucking brains on the wall
Reiteration of personal struggle and consequences
And you're not the one when it's all said and done
Your role is not comparable to mine in the end
Who's jumping off the earth to fall away
Facing the consequences of a significant decision
(solo)
(Instrumental solo, no specific lyrical meaning)
But at the end of the day, you got no say
Your opinion remains insignificant
Because it's not your fucking brains on the wall
Reiteration of the personal struggle and hardship
And you're not the one when it's all said and done
Your role and perspective don't matter in the end
Who said it's better burning out than to fade to grey
A choice between burning out or fading away
