Lyrics
So tell me what you'd find
Expressing a desire for insight into the speaker's thoughts or feelings.
If you looked inside my mind
Asking what one would discover if they delved into the speaker's mind.
Wishful thinking, but second guessing all the time
Acknowledging hopeful thoughts but frequently questioning decisions.
Never been too numb to cry
Never being emotionally detached enough to not cry.
But these days I have to try
Struggling to evoke emotions and having to make an effort to feel.
To feel anything at all inside my life
Expressing a difficulty in experiencing anything meaningful in life.
Are you sick of me yet?
Inquiring if the listener is growing tired or fed up with the speaker.
Stumbled out the front door, wish I could have said more
Regretting not expressing more before leaving, possibly a departure.
But I can't change anything about how you're far away
Feeling helpless about the distance between the speaker and someone else.
And how we're both struggling
Both individuals facing challenges, possibly in their relationship.
It gets hard I'm told, but it all gets old
Life becoming difficult and monotonous, losing its novelty.
When I'm sick of everything
Expressing weariness and dissatisfaction with everything.
And I don't know me
A sense of self-estrangement and confusion about personal identity.
Anymore
Feeling disconnected and not recognizing oneself anymore.
Guess I'm sick of going out the back door
Expressing weariness of leaving or avoiding situations through the back door.
And wearing thin for nothing more
Feeling emotionally drained without achieving anything substantial.
Than a faded dream I don't want anymore
Describing a dream or aspiration that has lost its significance.
And I know it's sad to be so sad
Acknowledging the sadness of being so unhappy.
But I'm doing my best with what I have
Trying one's best to cope with the available resources.
Sometimes I'm not enough, so I have to ask
Admitting inadequacy and seeking reassurance from the listener.
Are you sick of me yet?
Repeating the question about the listener's patience with the speaker.
Stumbled out the front door, wish I could have said more
Reflecting on missed opportunities to communicate before parting.
But I can't change anything about how you're far away
Reiterating the frustration of being distant from someone.
And how we're both struggling
Both individuals facing challenges, possibly in their relationship (repeated).
It gets hard I'm told, but it all gets old
Life becoming difficult and monotonous, losing its novelty (repeated).
When I'm sick of everything
Expressing weariness and dissatisfaction with everything (repeated).
And I don't know me
A sense of self-estrangement and confusion about personal identity (repeated).
Why don't I know me?
Pondering the lack of self-awareness and understanding.
And why don't I want this anymore?
Questioning the desire or need for a particular aspiration or situation.
