This Is Not The End
Rising from Heartbreak: Small Talk's Anthem of Resilience
Lyrics
Medication prescription drugs that's what it takes to fall out of love
Medication and prescription drugs are used to numb the emotions of falling out of love.
And therapy and old TV
Therapy and old TV fail to erase memories.
It will never clear my memories
Memories from childhood dreams and deceptive schemes don't restore self-esteem.
And the childhood dreams and Ponzi schemes
Unrequited love, detached from reality, ignites like gasoline.
Won't restore my crumbling self-esteem
During an evening show, there's a fleeting escape from loneliness, experiencing excitement.
And this out of touch unrequited love got set alight with gasoline
Feeling connected and alive only during adrenaline-fueled moments, away from loneliness.
Pick myself up for an evening show
Escaping loneliness by indulging in highs with admired individuals.
My heart beats faster my adrenaline flows
Seeking solace and distraction by idolizing others.
It's the only time I don't feel lonely
Expressing the belief that this coping mechanism is the only way to move on.
I'm down backstage and I'm getting high with the people I will idolise
The reassurance that despite difficulties, this isn’t the ultimate conclusion.
It's the only way I will ever get over you
Repeated acknowledgment that this situation continues endlessly.
This is not the end
Trying to fill the void with temporary pleasures.
This is not the end
Describing efforts to numb emotions with substances and distractions.
And it goes over and over and over and over again
Repetitive cycles of attempting to escape feelings of love and loss.
This is not the end
Insisting that despite struggles, this isn’t the ultimate conclusion.
This is not the end
Reaffirming that the cycle continues indefinitely.
Topping up on the empty glass
Refilling an empty glass symbolizes seeking fulfillment through temporary means.
Cheap thrills blue pills and expensive fags
Engaging in transient pleasures, substances, and habits to cope.
A flush of blood a dopamine rush
Triggering pleasure responses artificially to escape from love.
Whatever it takes to fall out of love
Despite attempts to escape, waking up on Monday mornings brings a stark reminder of absence.
But I'll wake back up on a Monday morning you're missing from my bed
Feeling overwhelmed by conflicting emotions, a mix of relief and dread.
It's an overwhelming cathartic feeling
Reiteration that this isn’t the definitive conclusion.
A killer sense of dread
Stating the repetitive nature of enduring cycles of emotions.
This is not the end
Overdosing figuratively on serotonin, affecting emotional stability.
This is not the end
Struggling, feeling suffocated by self-criticism.
And it goes over and over and over and over again
Experiencing emotional devastation and annihilation.
This is not the end
Recognizing signs of distress in desperate moments.
This is not the end
Expressing intense longing for a lost lover.
Oh my god I've overdosed
An intense desire to end the emotional pain.
On serotonin
Describing an overwhelming emotional state due to serotonin levels.
And I'm left choking
Feeling choked and overwhelmed by emotions.
Oh my god self-deprecation
Extreme self-deprecation and destructive thoughts.
Annihilation devastation
Expressing emotional devastation and loss in severe situations.
Surefire signs in desperate times
The narrator admits missing the person intensely.
Oh god I miss her
Metaphorically contemplating ending the emotional pain.
Pull the trigger
Describing emotional distress and desperation, feeling powerless.
And the heartless cries and lonely seas
Feeling abandoned and isolated, expressing deep emotional pain.
The bedroom floor I'm on my knees
Sinking to the lowest emotional state, feeling vulnerable.
This is not the end
Repeated assertion that despite the agony, this isn’t the ultimate conclusion.
This is not the end
Continued cycles of grappling with unresolved emotions.
And it goes over and over and over and over again
Insisting that despite the torment, this isn’t the ultimate conclusion.
This is not the end
Reaffirming the ongoing cycle of emotional turmoil.
This is not the end
Stating that despite the pain, this isn’t the ultimate conclusion.
