Broken Record
Breaking Free: A Journey of Self-Discovery Through Chaos
Lyrics
Going to the same old places,
Expressing a sense of routine or monotony, visiting familiar places repeatedly.
Skipping like a broken record,
Comparing life to a skipping, repetitive record, suggesting a need for change.
I love you all but I gotta get out and change this scenery.
Expressing love for others but feeling the necessity to break away and seek new surroundings.
I've got to find
Indicating a quest or search for a purpose or meaning in life.
What I'm living for,
Searching for the reason or motivation behind one's existence.
I've got to change this life that I'm living.
Expressing a determination to change the current way of living.
Nowhere to run from myself,
Feeling trapped within oneself, unable to escape personal struggles.
No where to hide from the truth
Emphasizing the inability to hide from one's own truths or realities.
I tried to find someone,
Attempting to find someone who understands or shares a similar experience.
Someone who knew,
Seeking a connection with someone who has insight into the struggles being faced.
Somebody to give myself to.
Desiring to give oneself to another person, possibly for support or understanding.
I learned the hard way,
Learning through difficult experiences, possibly involving giving too much of oneself.
When you give yourself away
Understanding the consequences of giving too much, potentially losing one's own life in the process.
You give away your life too.
Highlighting the idea that giving oneself away equates to giving away one's life.
Nowhere to run from myself,
Emphasizing the inescapability of personal struggles and truths.
Nowhere to hide from the truth
Reiterating the theme of being unable to hide from one's own reality.
I tried to find someplace
Attempting to find a place that feels right or suits one's needs.
That seemed right for me,
Expressing a search for a suitable and comfortable environment.
I walked the streets until I lost my mind
Wandering through the streets until experiencing a mental breakdown or loss of clarity.
And that was
Highlighting the moment of losing one's mind as a pivotal experience.
The best place to be
Suggesting that losing one's mind is paradoxically the best place to be.
When I lost my mind the truth set me free
Connecting the loss of the mind to the revelation of truth and freedom.
Set me free
(Refrain) - Emphasizing the liberating effect of losing one's mind and discovering the truth.
Set me free
(Refrain) - Reiteration of the newfound freedom and liberation from personal struggles.
Set me free
(Refrain) - Concluding the song with a repeated emphasis on being set free through the loss of the mind.
