Lyrics

Lost in my head again, voided existence

Feeling mentally preoccupied again, experiencing a sense of emptiness in existence.

But I stay trapped in the same routine

Stuck in a repetitive and unchanging daily pattern or lifestyle.

Push everyone I love away

Actively distancing oneself from those they care about.

I felt my best when I was all alone

Found personal contentment when in solitude.

Just force me right back into my heart of stone

External forces compel a return to a emotionally hardened state.


Our makeshift happiness is burned in a moment then its gone

Temporary or makeshift happiness is fleeting, lasting only for a brief moment before disappearing.


Type up your resume and file under alone

Summarizing life struggles and experiences on a resume, emphasizing a sense of isolation.

They caught us in a daze

Caught in a state of confusion or distraction.

Right where they want us to be

Being manipulated or controlled into a certain state, possibly one of vulnerability.

Last dance with mary jane on the radio

Listening to "Last Dance with Mary Jane" on the radio, a song that often explores themes of escapism.

And straight to hell we go

Heading towards a negative or difficult situation, metaphorically described as going straight to hell.


My lungs fill up with smoke

Breathing in something harmful or negative, possibly a metaphor for self-destructive behavior.

Numb and exactly what I need for me to forget there is nothing left for me

Seeking numbness as a coping mechanism and emphasizing the need to forget due to a lack of positive aspects in life.

My grave is full with the weight of regret

Feeling burdened by the weight of past mistakes and remorse.

No one can judge me when there's nothing left

Claiming immunity from judgment when there's nothing left to lose or be judged for.
