Lyrics
My name is Leah and I drink juice
Introducing the speaker as Leah who consumes juice regularly.
Every morning when I wake up but it's no use
Despite drinking juice, it doesn't have a positive impact on the speaker's well-being.
I'm unwell
Expressing a state of being unwell.
Can you tell that I'm sick in the brain?
Asking if the listener can perceive the speaker's mental distress.
3: 11 I look at the clock everyday
Noting a specific time (3:11) as a recurring moment of reflection for the speaker.
It's the same and I can't make it stop
Describing a repetitive and uncontrollable aspect of the speaker's life.
It's not right
Declaring a sense of wrongness or discomfort.
Can you F-I-G-U-R-E it out?
Challenging the listener to figure out the cause of the speaker's distress.
I miss you when you're gone
Expressing a longing for someone when they are absent.
But resent you when you're here
Revealing conflicting emotions of missing and resenting someone when they are present.
And crawl inside myself
Describing a retreat into oneself, possibly for introspection or coping.
And whisper into my own ear
Depicting a form of self-comfort through whispered reassurances.
"I'm an animal"
Identifying with an animalistic nature, suggesting vulnerability.
And I'm a hamster in a plastic ball
Comparing oneself to a hamster in a confined, artificial environment.
And I am running toward your fireplace
Imagining a journey toward someone's emotional warmth, using vivid imagery.
Chemicals are melted in my fur
Metaphorically describing the impact of emotions on the speaker's well-being.
No whiskers left to poke my face
Highlighting the toll of emotional experiences on the speaker's resilience.
You pick me up and then you put me back down
Expressing a cycle of being picked up and put down, possibly in relationships.
I wanna piggyback ride all over the town
Expressing a desire for care and closeness through a playful image.
Do your knees hurt?
Possibly questioning the listener's well-being or hinting at shared experiences.
Do your knees hurt?
Repetition of a question about physical discomfort, emphasizing a theme.
And I'm a hamster in a plastic ball
Reiteration of being a hamster, emphasizing a sense of limitation or repetition.
And I am running toward your fireplace
Recalling the earlier imagery of running towards emotional warmth.
Chemicals are melted in my fur
Reiterating the impact of emotions on the speaker's well-being.
No whiskers left to poke my face
Concluding with an image of vulnerability and loss of resilience.
