Lyrics
Agonizing over every word I want to say
Expressing intense distress and scrutiny over choosing each word carefully.
Controlled by fears and consequences of feelings I betray
Feeling controlled by fears and anticipating negative consequences for betraying emotions.
Flinch because I wonder when
Reacting with a flinch due to anticipation or anxiety about future events.
Elbowed in the head again
Experiencing physical pain, possibly as a metaphor for emotional distress.
Minding my own business on the couch
Engaged in one's own activities, unaware of external disturbances.
And I'm ashamed that all I ever have to say is ouch
Expressing shame at consistently responding with "ouch" in situations.
Forgetful, regretful, I'm feeling your head full of doubts
Feeling forgetful and regretful, contributing to doubts in someone else's mind.
"why do you like me?"
Quoting a question about personal preferences, possibly expressing insecurity.
But I like to complain my low threshold for pain doesn't help
Complaining about a low pain threshold, potentially as a defense mechanism.
Darling get off my knee
Requesting someone to move away, possibly due to discomfort or annoyance.
Flinch because I wonder when
Experiencing a flinch again, suggesting a recurring theme of unease or pain.
Poked me in the eye again
Experiencing physical pain, metaphorically represented as being poked in the eye.
Minding my own business on the couch
Engaged in personal activities, yet vulnerable to unexpected disturbances.
And I'm ashamed that all I ever have to say is ouch
Expressing shame at consistently responding with "ouch" in situations (repeated).
Well it doesn't bother me quite as much as you think
Asserting that a situation is not as bothersome as perceived by others.
I'm just extra sensitive after my second drink
Attributing heightened sensitivity to alcohol consumption.
And there's nothing I can do because I'm constantly annoyed
Expressing helplessness in dealing with constant annoyance and avoiding confrontations.
These heavy conversations, abrasions I avoid
Avoiding deep or serious conversations to prevent emotional injuries.
Flinch because I wonder when
Experiencing a flinch again, emphasizing a persistent sense of unease or pain.
Kicked me in the shin again
Experiencing physical pain, metaphorically represented as being kicked in the shin.
Minding my own business on the couch
Engaged in personal activities, yet vulnerable to unexpected disturbances (repeated).
And I'm ashamed that all I ever have to say is ouch
Expressing shame at consistently responding with "ouch" in situations (repeated).
