Lyrics

Stuck in the ground

Feeling trapped or stuck in a difficult situation.

Shopping for support, nothing can be found

Seeking support but finding none.

The mind floats around

The mind is unsettled and wandering.

Crashing back and forth, never really stopping

Experiencing constant turmoil and instability.


Turn around and try to face yourself

Suggests an attempt at self-reflection.

You may think it looks like someone else

Perception of oneself may be distorted.


Look from outside, they don't heal

Observing from an external perspective, recognizing lack of healing.

I'm passing through, shaking hands

Passing through life, engaging in superficial interactions.

Eyeless, shit-faced, they're not real

Describing others as eyeless, intoxicated, and not genuine.

Mud in the brain, all insane

Mind affected, possibly by negative influences, causing madness.


Turn around and try to face yourself

Reiteration of the attempt to face one's true self.

You may think it looks like someone else

Perception of oneself may be misleading.


Raw display of pain

Expression of intense emotional suffering.

No shelter, refugee

No refuge, feeling like a displaced person.


Floaters in mud

Metaphorically describing oneself as floaters in mud, feeling stuck and mired.


Turn around and face yourself

Reiteration of the call to face one's true self.
