Lyrics
Nobody picks up the phone
Nobody answers the phone
So many people make it easier to feel alone
Feeling isolated is made easier by the presence of many people
Just like the old days I'd come
Reflecting on past times when the singer used to come around
But you're never even home
The person is never at home
And I tried to sell out,
Attempted to conform or compromise, realizing others had already done so
It turns out everybody else was already sold
Being informed that everyone else has already accepted something
At least that's what I'm told
The singer is conveying what they've been told
It's getting old
Feeling tired of the situation
But it's day and night this time around
Continuing struggle or challenge throughout day and night
I put my feet back on the ground
Returning to reality and stability
I run away just to come back again
A cycle of leaving and coming back again
I tried to tell you that it's all in my head
Expressing that issues are internal and psychological
I tried to tell you that it's not dead
Denying that the situation is lifeless or without hope
I changed the locks and still hear knocks
Despite efforts to distance, still experiencing attempts to reconnect
I tried to run and you tried to talk
Trying to escape, while the other party wants to communicate
I tried to tell you that it's all in my head
Reiterating that the issues are internal and psychological
We all change
Acknowledging that change is a universal experience
Everyone's seen better days
Everyone has faced better days in the past
Consequences of the haze
Dealing with the consequences of confusion or unclear situations
Like no one knows
Issues are concealed or not apparent to others
We all pay
We all face challenges and make sacrifices
Blood and bones
Sacrifices involving physical and material aspects of life
Cash and prey
Exchanging money or goods as part of life's struggles
Better days oh better days
Expressing nostalgia for better times
Like no one knows
Similar to line 20, indicating hidden challenges
Sometimes I feel like it's all in my head
Experiencing doubt or uncertainty about reality
I tried to tell you that it's not dead
Reiterating that the situation is not without hope
I changed the locks and still hear knocks
Despite efforts to distance, still experiencing attempts to reconnect (repeated theme)
I tried to run and you tried to talk
Trying to avoid, while the other party wants to communicate (repeated theme)
I tried to tell you that it's all in my head
Reiterating that the issues are internal and psychological (repeated theme)
I tried to tell you that it's all in my head
Emphasizing that the challenges are rooted in the mind
I tried to tell you that it's not dead
Denying that the situation is lifeless or without hope (repeated theme)
I changed the locks and still hear knocks
Despite efforts to distance, still experiencing attempts to reconnect (repeated theme)
I tried to run and you tried to talk
Trying to avoid, while the other party wants to communicate (repeated theme)
I tried to tell you that it's all in my head
Reiterating that the issues are internal and psychological (repeated theme)
