Schizophrenic
Navigating the Abyss: Ruff Majik's Schizophrenic Symphony
Lyrics
Hey, you looking into my eyes
Expression of direct engagement and connection, seeking attention
Won’t you lend me a hand?
Plea for assistance or support
Hey, you looking in through the mirror
Reference to self-reflection, possibly introspection or self-awareness
Won’t you understand?
Desire for comprehension or empathy from others
I’m losing my mind
Statement about mental instability or emotional distress
And I don’t have the time
Expressing a lack of time to address personal struggles
To bury myself
Metaphorical reference to avoiding personal problems
But I don’t see nobody else
Feeling isolated or not noticing others around
Every morning all I hear is doom
Reference to a negative or foreboding atmosphere
She asked me, who the hell are you talking to?
Dialogue suggesting a disconnect or confusion
I don’t know
Uncertainty or lack of awareness about the situation
Have I taken too much, am I out of touch?
Concerns about personal boundaries or excess
I can’t keep the ghosts away
Struggling to cope with haunting memories or experiences
No, it seems they’re here to stay
Acceptance of persistent challenges
Hey, you looking into my eyes
Repetition of the desire for understanding and connection
Won’t you lend me a hand?
Reiteration of the plea for assistance or support
Hey, you looking in through the mirror
Continuation of self-reflection and seeking comprehension
Won’t you understand?
Continued desire for empathy or understanding from others
I’m losing my mind
Restatement of mental distress and lack of time
And I don’t have the time
Continued metaphorical reference to personal struggles
To bury myself
Reiteration of the difficulty in facing personal challenges
But I don’t see nobody else
Expressing a sense of isolation or lack of awareness of others
I’ve seen it all
Claiming to have witnessed various hardships or tragedies
The churches burn, the cities fall
Listing catastrophic events, suggesting a bleak perspective
And when the serpents came they took my mind away
Metaphorical description of losing control or sanity
She says, your fever’s high, have you been dreaming again?
Reference to a possible illness or altered state of consciousness
I said, lock me away
Expression of willingness to be isolated or confined
I believe I’ve seen the end
Belief in having reached an endpoint or conclusion
Hey, you looking into my eyes
Repetition of seeking connection and understanding through gaze
Won’t you lend me a hand?
Reiteration of the plea for assistance or support
Hey, you looking in through the mirror
Continued self-reflection and seeking comprehension
Won’t you understand?
Continued desire for empathy or understanding from others
I’m losing my mind
Restatement of mental distress and lack of time
And I don’t have the time
Continued metaphorical reference to personal struggles
To bury myself
Reiteration of the difficulty in facing personal challenges
But I don’t see nobody else
Expressing a sense of isolation or lack of awareness of others
Hey, you looking into my eyes
Final repetition of seeking connection and understanding through gaze
Won’t you
Incomplete plea for understanding, leaving it open-ended
Understand?
Final plea for comprehension or empathy
