life's been boring
Nostalgic Reflections: RYMAN LEON's 'Life's Been Boring' Unveiled
Lyrics
Was it prom night or New Year's Eve
Reflecting on a significant event, possibly prom night or New Year's Eve
Was I star struck or seventeen
Considering whether the speaker was infatuated or just seventeen at that time
I was too young to look away
Feeling too young to avert attention or take a different path
Now I think back to what I could of said
Reminiscing about missed opportunities and things left unsaid
Now I'm on the phone with your mom again
Engaging in a conversation with the listener's mom
And she told me what you couldn't say
Learning from the mom what the listener couldn't express
Now I'm too sick to leave my bed
Feeling physically unwell, possibly due to emotional distress
Because I can't get you out my head so
Struggling to move on from thoughts of the listener
Why don't you come over
Inviting the listener to come over and discuss everything
And talk about everything
Suggesting a conversation about the challenges in their relationship
You don't wanna do this anymore anymore no
Expressing a desire to end the relationship due to boredom or dissatisfaction
My life has been boring
Summarizing that the speaker's life has become dull and uneventful
And I'll forget everything
Deciding to forget everything, possibly as a coping mechanism
I don't wanna do this anymore
Expressing a reluctance to continue the current state of affairs
Why don't you stay longer
Encouraging the listener to stay longer, perhaps seeking comfort or resolution
Why don't we hold on for
Proposing to hold on for a little more time in the relationship
A little more time because I don't know how to move on from
Expressing uncertainty about moving on from the shared experiences
All that we been through
Acknowledging the challenges faced together in the past
And now I resent you
Feeling resentment towards the listener for the current situation
And every person tells me
Receiving advice from others to forget the listener
I should just forget you
Experiencing conflicting emotions and external pressures
Usually passing by taking collins through
Typically taking Collins Road, perhaps a routine symbolic of their relationship
Back to my place but I hate that road
Disliking the road back home due to its associated memories
Because the drive back always takes so long
Feeling the prolonged emotional burden of returning home
And my pride waits for you to call
Waiting with pride for the listener to make a call
Now I'm on the phone with your mom again
Repeating the scenario of conversing with the listener's mom
And she told me what you couldn't say
Learning more from the mom about the listener's unspoken thoughts
Now I'm too sick to leave my bed
Continuing to feel unwell due to persistent thoughts of the listener
Because I can't get you out my head so
Struggling to remove the listener from the speaker's thoughts
Why don't you come over
Repeating the invitation for the listener to come over and discuss
And talk about everything
Insisting on addressing all aspects of their relationship
You don't wanna do this anymore anymore no
Reiterating a desire to end the relationship due to dissatisfaction
My life has been boring
Summarizing the speaker's current state of a monotonous and uninteresting life
And I'll forget everything
Deciding to forget everything, possibly as a coping mechanism
I don't wanna do this anymore
Expressing a reluctance to continue the current state of affairs
Why don't you stay longer
Encouraging the listener to stay longer, seeking resolution or comfort
Why don't we hold on for
Proposing to hold on for a little more time in the relationship
A little more time because I don't know how to move on from
Expressing uncertainty about moving on from shared experiences
All that we been through
Acknowledging the challenges faced together in the past
And now I resent you
Feeling resentment towards the listener for the current situation
And every person tells me
Receiving advice from others to forget the listener
I should just forget you
Experiencing conflicting emotions and external pressures
