Residual
Navigating Inner Storms: Unveiling the Depths of 'Residual'
Lyrics
My head is in a raging storm, trapped in the eye
Feeling overwhelmed and trapped in inner turmoil, a metaphorical storm.
I see no way to free myself from this place
Expressing a sense of hopelessness, unable to find a way out of the difficult situation.
The seas are rolling higher these days
Describing challenges and obstacles that have intensified over time.
Blissfully I walked here one day
Recalling a past moment of happiness or contentment.
Never knew how long I would stay
Reflecting on an unexpected and prolonged stay in a certain state or condition.
Brought upon myself for thinking
Taking responsibility for the situation by acknowledging personal thoughts or assumptions.
Nobody was ever looking
Feeling neglected or unnoticed by others.
I tried so hard to make a change
Struggling to bring about a positive change in life.
I threw my real self out
Choosing to hide one's true self, resulting in emptiness.
And found that I was empty
Realizing the void within after abandoning authenticity.
Only searching for someone to love me
Seeking love and acceptance from others.
A black husk of the man before
Describing a diminished version of the person's former self.
I'm desperately running back for
Desperation to reclaim a lost opportunity or connection.
A second chance to write my story
Expressing a desire for a second chance to shape one's life.
Before I die and am free from
Contemplating mortality and the prospect of freedom from pain through death.
Pain, the only one that never goes away
Acknowledging pain as a persistent and enduring aspect of life.
But it's okay, another day and I'll be straight
Optimistic about a future day when things will improve.
I'll be straight
Reiterating the hope for a positive change.
Don't know what I was waiting for
Regretting a missed opportunity or failure to act.
After I failed to find you
Reflecting on the aftermath of a failed search or pursuit.
I should have never let my feelings
Recognizing a mistake in expressing emotions too soon.
Get as far as my mouth leaving
Acknowledging a change in oneself after a significant event.
No longer the same there after
Moving on to a new phase or chapter in life.
Turning to another chapter
Expressing determination not to repeat past mistakes.
Maybe next time I won't fuck up
Expressing a commitment to avoid causing harm or failure in the future.
Everything, I'll just shut up
Choosing silence or restraint to prevent further mistakes.
Maybe if I can leave behind
Expressing a desire to leave behind emotional baggage.
All of the feelings I felt
Hoping that distancing oneself from emotions will lessen the pain.
It won't hurt so much to think of
Anticipating reduced emotional pain by leaving behind memories.
All the times we laughed and stayed up
Recalling positive moments of laughter and shared experiences.
Were the years so meaningless
Questioning the significance or value of past years.
You told me that my feelings were not
Being told that one's feelings were not genuine or strong enough.
Real enough
Questioning the nature and authenticity of love.
What is love
Pondering the meaning and nature of love in the context of pain.
Pain, the only one that never goes away
Reiterating pain as an enduring aspect of life.
But it's okay, another day and I'll be straight
Optimism about overcoming pain in the future.
I'll be straight
Reaffirming the hope for a positive change.
Pain, the only one that never goes away
Highlighting the persistent nature of pain.
But it's okay, another day and I'll be straight
Optimism about a future day when things will improve.
I'll be straight
Reiterating the hope for a positive change.
