Lyrics

Everyone's so cold here

Expressing a perception of people being emotionally distant or unkind.

Just blame it on the weather

Suggesting attributing the emotional atmosphere to external factors like the weather.

A year spent in a circle

Reflecting on a year spent in a repetitive or unfulfilling cycle.

Just trying to hold together

Describing a struggle to keep things intact or maintain stability.

Some picture in our heads of how it's all supposed to be

Highlighting the existence of idealized images in our minds about how life should be.

The only reason we're not dead yet: we're not ready to be free

Suggesting the survival instinct is the only reason for being alive, not readiness for freedom.

I need help

Expressing a plea for assistance.

I need help getting up out of bed in the morning

Specifically mentioning the difficulty of getting out of bed in the morning.

And I could tell you every reason, but I think they're all boring

Conveying a belief that the reasons for needing help are uninteresting or commonplace.

I wake up in a panic, I need to stare at my screen

Describing a state of panic upon waking and a reliance on screens for comfort.

I can't breathe, it's all poison, and it's all inside of me

Indicating a feeling of suffocation and internal struggle with negativity.

No more pain

Expressing a desire for an end to pain.

Take me somewhere it rains

Yearning to be taken to a place symbolized by rain, possibly associated with cleansing.

Where no one acts like you're family

Desiring a space where people don't pretend to be like family.

Until you're ripped off the stage

Commenting on the fickle nature of relationships, especially in the spotlight.

Then you're no one

Emphasizing the loss of identity or significance once removed from the stage.

And you're no one

Reiterating the feeling of insignificance or being unnoticed.

And you're no one

Continuing the theme of feeling like nobody.

Oh god, I wish I was no one

Expressing a deep wish for anonymity or non-existence.

I need help getting up out of bed in the morning

Repeating the need for help in the morning routine.

And I could tell you every reason, but I think they're all boring

Reiterating the belief that explaining reasons for needing help is uninteresting.

I wake up in a panic, I need to stare at my screen

Echoing the morning panic and dependence on a screen for solace.

I can't breathe, it's all poison, and it's all inside of me

Restating the internal struggle and the feeling of toxicity within.
