Lyrics

Pull down the blinds

Pulling down the blinds, seeking privacy or shutting out the outside world.

Don't think I'll make it out today

Expressing difficulty or reluctance to face the challenges of the day.

Spilling down from the sky

Describing rain or tears metaphorically falling from the sky, symbolizing emotional weight.

Another day one more than I can take

Feeling overwhelmed, with each day becoming increasingly burdensome.


Get my irons from the fire

Retrieving tools or solutions to address problems, acknowledging a pattern of mistakes.

Cause mistakes are all I seem able to make these days

Admitting a series of errors and challenges in recent times.

Later to bed, later to rise

Adopting a lifestyle of staying up late and waking up late, possibly due to emotional strain.

Feeling unhealthy, unwealthy and unwise

Expressing a state of physical and mental unwellness and financial challenges.


I'm not screening calls

Not actively avoiding calls but not motivated to answer them, suggesting emotional withdrawal.

I just ain't answering the phone

Rejecting social interaction and avoiding communication.

Don't come banging on my door

Discouraging others from seeking attention or attempting to engage.

Please just leave me alone

Requesting solitude and independence, emphasizing the desire to be left alone.


I don't know another way

Expressing a lack of alternative approaches or solutions to the current situation.

I'm waiting for my luck to change

Awaiting a positive change in fortune, possibly linked to a relationship.

Without you by my side

Feeling incomplete or challenged without the presence of a significant other.


This loneliness I feel

Describing a profound and persistent feeling of being alone.

Is the kind I fear I'll keep

Anticipating a lasting sense of loneliness, fearing it may not change.

I'm trying to fall out of love

Attempting to move on from a romantic attachment but struggling to do so.

But I'm only falling asleep

Unable to escape thoughts of the past, possibly hindered by emotional sleeplessness.


I miss you so much

Conveying the profound impact of missing someone, suggesting an overwhelming emotional void.

I might as well miss everyone

Reflecting on the universality of missing loved ones, possibly in a resigned or melancholic tone.

Ain't we having fun

Ironically acknowledging the challenging or painful nature of the current emotional state.
