Lyrics
There's a voice in my head
There is a persistent thought or inner dialogue in the speaker's mind.
I hate that it surfaced again
The speaker dislikes the recurrence of this thought.
It's a tongue I know
The thought is familiar or related to the speaker in some way.
Will it ever leave
The speaker wonders if this thought will ever go away.
When you feel like you're on your own
When one feels isolated or abandoned.
You feel like there's nothing left
Feeling depleted or without purpose.
Brush all the dust off the ones you love
Encouragement to reconnect with loved ones and mend relationships.
Run to them and find where you're meant to be
Advocating seeking solace and purpose in the company of loved ones.
The voice says "You're on your own"
The inner voice suggests the speaker is alone.
"Stop looking for love and go home"
The inner voice discourages seeking love elsewhere and encourages returning home.
"You'll never achieve anything"
The inner voice undermines the speaker's confidence in achieving goals.
"It would be better if you faded away"
Suggesting it would be better for the speaker to disappear or give up.
When you feel like you're on your own
Reiteration of the feeling of isolation.
You feel like there's nothing left
Reiteration of feeling purposeless.
Brush all the dust off the ones you love
Encouragement to reconnect with loved ones, emphasizing its importance.
Run to them and find where you're meant to be
Reiteration of seeking solace and purpose in the company of loved ones.
It calls this inspiration, I call it fear
The inner voice is labeled as inspiration, but the speaker perceives it as fear.
It pushes me down
The fear or negative thought suppresses the speaker.
I'm not getting younger here
The speaker reflects on the passing of time and aging.
I've wasted every single day
Regret for not making the most of each day.
And when I see myself, all I see is shame
Self-perception tainted by shame.
When you feel like you're on your own
Reiteration of the feeling of isolation.
You feel like there's nothing left
Reiteration of feeling purposeless.
Brush all the dust off the ones you love
Encouragement to reconnect with loved ones, emphasizing its importance.
Run to them and find where you're meant to be
Reiteration of seeking solace and purpose in the company of loved ones.
I promise I won't let fear hold me down
The speaker pledges not to let fear control them.
Run to the light where you belong
Encouragement to move towards positivity and where one truly belongs.
And just hold on, just hold on
An urging to persevere and endure challenges.
Hold onto whatever keeps you striving
Encouragement to hold onto whatever motivates and drives the speaker.
Cling to whatever keeps you living
Encouragement to cling to whatever makes life meaningful.
Look for a start, invest your heart
Suggests seeking a new beginning and investing emotions.
Plant your seed and watch it reach
Symbolic language about nurturing growth and potential.
That goddamn voice won't go away
The persistent negative inner voice remains.
It tells me "Kid, you are on your own"
The inner voice repeats the notion of being alone and discouraged from seeking love elsewhere.
"Stop looking for love and just go home"
Reiteration of the inner voice discouraging love and encouraging returning home.
When you feel like you're on your own
Reiteration of the feeling of isolation.
You feel like there's nothing left
Reiteration of feeling purposeless.
Brush all the dust off the ones you love
Encouragement to reconnect with loved ones, emphasizing its importance.
Run to them and find where you're meant to be
Reiteration of seeking solace and purpose in the company of loved ones.
I promise I won't let fear hold me down
The speaker reaffirms their commitment not to be held back by fear.
Run to the light where you belong
Encouragement to move towards positivity and where one truly belongs.
And just hold on, just hold on
An urging to persevere and endure challenges.
