Double Arrows Down
Defying Fear: The Bombpops' Anthem of Resilience and Struggle
Lyrics
I'm sitting here
I am currently in a state of contemplation or reflection.
Tired of living life that's filled with fear
Feeling fatigued from a life dominated by fear.
It's not fair
Expressing a sense of injustice or dissatisfaction with the current situation.
I'm just sick of being scared
Frustration with the constant state of fear.
Sometimes life deals you a shitty hand
Life sometimes presents challenging situations.
Sometimes your day doesn't go as planned
Days don't always go according to plans.
But with me
Referring to the speaker.
I feel like all I do is bleed
Feeling emotionally drained and wounded.
There's days I wanna close my eyes and never wake up to my numbers high
Contemplating a desire to escape from the challenges, particularly related to health.
Just lay there until all I read is low
Wanting to avoid facing the reality of high numbers, possibly related to a medical condition.
I'm sick as shit of all these pricks
Expressing frustration with unpleasant people.
And everybody's ignorance
Frustration with the lack of understanding from others.
This needle's wearing thin
Metaphorically referring to the exhaustion of medical treatment.
And there's no end
Feeling trapped with no apparent solution or relief.
I'm sitting there
Returning to a situation involving medical treatment.
In another cold pharmacy chair
In another uncomfortable situation related to health care.
Standing by
Observing the financial and physical toll of medical procedures.
While they suck my veins and wallet dry
Feeling drained emotionally and financially by medical processes.
I can write all these defiant songs
Despite rebellious expressions, life depends on medical technology.
But my life is still reliant on machines
Despite defiance, life is reliant on machines for survival.
And all I do is bleed
Continuing to feel emotionally wounded and drained.
There's days I wanna close my eyes and never wake up to my numbers high
Repetition of the desire to avoid waking up to high numbers, suggesting a chronic health condition.
Just lay there until all I read is low
Continued desire to avoid confronting the reality of health issues.
I'm sick as shit of all these pricks
Frustration with unpleasant people and their lack of understanding.
And everybody's ignorance
Expressing frustration with the ignorance of others.
This needle's wearing thin
Metaphorically referring to the diminishing effectiveness of medical treatment.
And there's no end
No apparent solution or relief in sight.
Last thing I remember
Recalling a memory before a medical procedure involving a needle.
Before you plunged the needle
Describing the moment before receiving an injection.
I lied there shaking on this cold gas station floor
Experiencing physical and emotional distress in a cold environment.
Eyes are rolling back
Describing the effects of the injection on the speaker's consciousness.
Into my skull it fades to black
Descending into unconsciousness and a sense of nothingness.
There's days I wanna close my eyes and never wake up to my numbers high
Repetition of the desire to avoid waking up to high numbers, emphasizing the struggle with a medical condition.
Just lay there until all I read is low
Continued desire to escape the challenges of dealing with health issues.
The highs and lows and insulin
Acknowledging the fluctuating nature of health, referencing insulin as a part of managing a medical condition.
I'm so tired of explaining it
Expressing exhaustion from explaining the challenges of dealing with a medical condition.
This needles wearing thin and there's no end
Reiterating the weariness of medical treatment with no apparent resolution.
