Lyrics

I remember when

I recall a time

I never needed space

I didn't require personal space

Tipping back again

Returning to a former state

Right into my old ways

Reverting to my previous behavior

Feel like I'm always in the right place, wrong time

I often feel like I'm in the right place but at the wrong time, or vice versa

Or wrong place, right time, whichever the fuck

Indifferent about the right or wrong timing, just taking chances

Don't need to answer this call, thought I'd try my luck

Opting not to respond to a call, trying luck instead

I gotta breathe in ten counts so I don't get stuck

Needing to count and regulate breathing to avoid getting stuck in negative thoughts

In this toxic thought line

Trapped in a harmful pattern of thinking

Whipped by my mind, heard all kinds of stuff

Feeling overwhelmed by thoughts, hearing various opinions

"Take a look at this night, it's such a pleasure

Someone suggesting to enjoy the night while questioning excessive drinking

Why you gotta drink till you don't remember?"

Wishing to return to a previous point in time, seeking closeness to avoid pain

I'd like to go back right to where we were

Symbolizing missing opportunities for connection or joy

Keep me close, I don't know how to be hurt

Desiring emotional closeness to avoid pain or vulnerability

Two speedboats missing every time we turn

Symbolizing missed opportunities or mistakes

Take me back to where you are

Asking to be taken back to a past state or location

Every day I spark in you a wretched kind of sympathy

Causing a particular kind of pity or understanding in someone every day

I can tell you feel it every time you turn to look at me

Noticing someone's empathetic reaction when they look at me

Keep me up all night because the days are getting tiring

Struggling with sleeplessness due to repetitive and tiring days

Bleeding into one another like a broken artery

Describing days merging into one another like a continuous, harmful situation

"I'm talking too much, I'm being crazy, I'm malfunctioning

Feeling like talking too much, worrying about being unwanted

Fuck, I wonder if they even really want my company"

Questioning if my company is genuinely wanted by others

Just be quiet, you're driving me up the wall

Requesting silence from someone because their actions are frustrating

Oh, cause I'm always saying blunt words, mean things

Acknowledging speaking harshly and causing hurt unintentionally

Hurting feelings, it's not what I want

Expressing regret for causing pain through words

I know how that shit feels, hate to pass it along

Understanding the feeling of hurting others and not wanting to perpetuate it

We gotta let go so we can all move on

Recognizing the need to let go of the past to move forward

Are y'all done with me yet?

Questioning if people are finished with me

My friends say no sweat, we're all a bit far gone

Friends reassuring that everyone is dealing with their own struggles

Beaten down by time like cracks in leather

Feeling worn down by time, akin to aged and weathered leather

It's gonna get harder 'fore it gets better

Anticipating things getting more difficult before improving

So spent, though fear still ties us to earth

Despite feeling exhausted, still bound by fears and reality

When these paths close, take me fast and take me first

Asking to be taken away quickly when options are limited

Two speedboats missing every time we turn

Repeatedly experiencing missed opportunities or regrets

Take me back to where you are

Requesting to be taken back to a previous state or place

Oooh
