Breaking Free: Sam Bowman's Anthem for Escaping the Digital Cage
Lyrics
I've been feeling pretty high-strung lately
Expressing heightened stress or tension recently.
Remember when I could run
Nostalgic reference to a time when the speaker felt free and unrestricted.
Without a care in the world
Recalling carefree moments from the past.
I've been fighting off the phantoms daily
Battling inner struggles or imaginary fears consistently.
Wish I could put down my phone
Desiring a break from constant phone engagement.
So they would leave me alone
Wishing to be left alone by intrusive elements, possibly related to digital communication.
I've been looking out the window waiting
Anticipating something while looking out the window.
But now I'm headed outside
Stepping outside to address mental conflicts.
To stop the war in my mind
Intending to cease internal struggles.
I'm tired, I'm so bone tired
Expressing extreme fatigue or exhaustion.
Of solo flying tonight
Feeling tired of facing challenges alone.
I need to escape from the world I created
Expressing a need to escape from a self-created reality.
Love it or hate it, I'm dying inside
Acknowledging internal turmoil regardless of external opinions.
Give me a break from this digital cage, yeah
Yearning for a break from the confinement of the digital world.
Sooner or later, I'm losing my mind
Recognizing an imminent mental breakdown.
Make me a tree bearing fruit in its season
Desiring personal growth and productivity, symbolized by a fruitful tree.
Help me to see that there's more to my life than the likes on my posts
Seeking a broader perspective beyond social media validation.
On my phone, at my desk, all alone
Highlighting isolation in various aspects of life (phone, desk, solitude).
Cause I can't go one more day
Expressing urgency for change in daily routine.
Without a breath of fresh air
Craving a literal breath of fresh air as a metaphor for renewal.
Clock in, clock out
Describing a monotonous work routine with clocking in and out.
It's such a vicious cycle now
Characterizing a repetitive and challenging life cycle.
Log in, log out
Repetition of the cycle with logging in and out.
I'm stuck here wishing
Feeling stuck and yearning for change.
For the dopamine hit
Seeking the pleasure of dopamine release, possibly through digital interactions.
For the hope in all this
Desiring hope amid challenges.
While I totally miss
Expressing a sense of missing the truth amid distractions.
The truth
The recognition of the need for clarity and authenticity.
I'm tired, I'm so bone tired
Reiteration of profound exhaustion and solitude.
Of solo flying tonight
Repeating the desire to escape from self-created challenges.
I need to escape from the world I created
Reiterating the internal struggle regardless of external perceptions.
Love it or hate it, I'm dying inside
Re-emphasizing the need for a break from digital confinement.
Give me a break from this digital cage, yeah
Repeating the inevitability of a mental breakdown.
Sooner or later, I'm losing my mind
Reiterating the desire for personal growth and productivity.
Make me a tree bearing fruit in its season
Repeating the call for a broader perspective on life.
Help me to see that there's more to my life than the likes on my posts
Reiterating the need to see beyond social media validation.
On my phone, at my desk, all alone
Reiteration of isolation in various aspects of life.
Cause I can't go one more day
Repeating the urgency for change in daily routine.
Without a breath of fresh air
Reiterating the craving for a literal breath of fresh air.
Make me a tree bearing fruit in its season
Repeating the desire for personal growth and productivity.
Help me to see that there's more to delight in than voices of ghosts
Reiterating the need for a broader perspective beyond superficial influences.
God, I can't go one more day
Expressing a plea to break free from haunting voices or memories.
Without a breath of fresh air
Reiterating the urgent need for renewal and change.
