In My Room
Embracing Shadows: Finding Solace In My Room
Lyrics
I avoid the sun
I deliberately stay away from the sun.
And I avoid the moon
I deliberately avoid the moon as well.
I can't be myself around you
I feel unable to express my true self when I'm with you.
I avoid the sun
Similar to line 1, emphasizing the deliberate avoidance of the sun.
And I avoid the moon
Similar to line 2, underlining the intentional avoidance of the moon.
I can't be myself around you
Reiteration of feeling unable to be authentic around you.
Why is it that I only find peace in my mind?
Expressing a quest for inner peace confined to the mind.
I don't understand why I can't be me all of the time
Expressing confusion about the inability to be oneself at all times.
I wonder why you all are unsafe in my mind
Expressing curiosity about others being unsafe in the singer's mind.
Now I only hide In My Room where I am fine
Choosing isolation and finding solace in one's room as a coping mechanism.
I am alive
Stating existence and being present.
In My Room
Emphasizing the singer's state of being "In My Room."
I avoid the sun
Repeating the theme of deliberately avoiding exposure to the sun.
And I avoid the moon
Repeating the deliberate avoidance of the moon.
I can't be myself around you
Reiterating the struggle to be authentic in the presence of someone.
I avoid the sun
Repeating the intentional avoidance of the sun.
And I avoid the moon
Repeating the intentional avoidance of the moon.
I can't be myself around you
Reiterating the difficulty in being oneself around a specific person.
Every single time I try I am beat down from the lies
Expressing repeated disappointment and emotional pain from deceit.
The only ones I can trust I can't see but not 'cause I'm blind
Acknowledging a paradox where the trustworthy individuals are unseen.
My familiar friends are here with me safe in my room
Finding comfort and safety in the presence of familiar thoughts or mental constructs.
It will take a lot for you to be here beside me too
Implying that earning trust requires significant effort from others.
I am alive
Reiteration of existence and being alive while in the singer's room.
In My Room
Reiterating the significance of the singer's state of being "In My Room."
I am alive
Repetition of the declaration of being alive while in the room.
In My Room
Repetition of the importance of the singer's state of being "In My Room."
I avoid the sun
Repeating the intentional avoidance of the sun.
And I avoid the moon
Repeating the deliberate avoidance of the moon.
I can't be myself around you
Reiterating the ongoing struggle to be genuine in the presence of someone.
