i'm not ok
Echoes of Solitude: Spencer Stix's Heartfelt Journey in 'i'm not ok'
Lyrics
It's quiet now
Reflecting on a calm and quiet moment.
Silent as a ghost town
Describing the silence akin to a deserted town.
Searching for anything
Searching for something amidst a cluttered mind.
To clear my crowded mind
Seeking clarity and peace of mind.
To find the space and time
Desiring a specific moment in time and space.
Where you were there
Recalling a past when someone was present.
Running those hands through my hair
Remembering tactile affection.
But now they're in theirs
Noticing a change in the person's actions.
And I wonder what you think
Contemplating the thoughts of the other person.
Tell me what you see
Asking for insights into their perspective.
Are you're seeing him, but dreaming me
Questioning the reality of the other person's feelings.
I'm all alone in my mind
Expressing a sense of isolation in one's thoughts.
I just can't seem to find
Struggling to recall comforting words.
The words you said to me
Remembering past reassuring statements.
When I was overwhelmed
Recalling a time of emotional overwhelm.
And you were trying to help
Acknowledging past attempts at support.
Me rationalize my fears
Attempting to rationalize fears with help.
Who got the best of me
Reflecting on who had a significant impact.
I'm feeling super weak
Feeling emotionally vulnerable and powerless.
They got me on my knees
Expressing a state of submission or defeat.
Oh please, please let me breathe
Pleading for relief and space to breathe.
It's been 10:41 for an hour and a half
Noting the prolonged experience of a specific time.
My sheets keep coming up
Experiencing persistent difficulties (metaphorically represented by sheets).
And I'm always runner up
Consistently falling short or being second best.
I might bash in my head
Expressing frustration and thoughts of self-harm.
The silence is deafening
Describing the overwhelming impact of silence.
I can't see a thing
Feeling disoriented and unable to perceive.
Since the day I saw your face
Referencing a significant moment of emotional impact.
You know I could breathe
Recalling a time when breathing was easy and natural.
The pressure is killing me
Expressing the weight of external pressures.
My enemies keep chasing me
Feeling pursued or threatened by adversaries.
They're the axe, I'm the tree
Metaphorically portraying a vulnerable state.
Do you notice me?
Pleading for acknowledgment and attention.
Do you scroll past my name?
Questioning if one is noticed or remembered.
Were all the texts you sent all in vain?
Reflecting on the value of past communication.
I'm all alone in my mind
Reiterating a sense of isolation in one's thoughts.
I just can't seem to find
Continuing to struggle with finding comforting words.
The words you said to me
Recalling past reassuring statements once more.
When I was overwhelmed
Revisiting a time of emotional overwhelm.
And you were trying to help
Acknowledging past attempts at support again.
Me rationalize my fears
Persisting efforts to rationalize fears.
Who got the best of me
Reflecting on who had a lasting impact.
I'm feeling super weak
Reiterating emotional vulnerability and weakness.
They got me on my knees
Expressing submission or defeat once more.
Oh please, please let me breathe
Pleading for relief and the ability to breathe.
