I'm So Pathetic
Embracing Longing: The Profound Journey of 'I'm So Pathetic'
Lyrics
You long for rest
You desire a break or relief.
And count the awful days.
You keep track of the difficult or unpleasant days.
You speak like
You talk as if you've never faced challenges before.
Nothings ever challenged you before.
You appear to be in denial or avoiding acknowledging difficulties.
Away with words,
You express disagreement or objection.
You start to disagree.
You begin to contradict or dispute.
You look like
You seem like something has affected you negatively in the past.
Something must've had at you before,
You give the impression that something has hurt you previously.
And I knew it would happen.
The speaker anticipated the negative outcome.
I tried to get the light.
The speaker attempted to find brightness or positivity.
It's part of why I risk my head
Part of the reason the speaker takes risks is to gain enlightenment.
In light of having more;
Despite challenges, the speaker seeks more.
And heaven knows,
A reference to seeking understanding or acknowledgment from a higher power.
Heaven knows me.
A repetition emphasizing divine awareness or recognition.
It's in my work,
The challenges are reflected in the speaker's work.
The cast is setting in.
A metaphorical indication that circumstances are solidifying or becoming fixed.
I hang like no one's ever
The speaker hangs in uncertainty, possibly avoiding confrontation.
Knocking at the door.
There is a sense of isolation or reluctance to open up to others.
So love this sense,
Encouragement to appreciate and cherish this feeling or understanding.
And start your bothering.
Initiate action and confront what troubles you.
I paint the colors that
The speaker recreates the positive aspects that attracted someone before.
Enamored you before.
Using art to revive the attraction or admiration.
I'm so pathetic.
An admission of feeling low in self-worth or significance.
It knows me well enough
The speaker is familiar with their own shortcomings.
To understand my longing.
The walls symbolize confinement or pressure, and the speaker is acknowledging it.
Those walls are closing in.
The pressure is intensifying, and a decision to separate or break free is made.
I will divide.
A declaration of readiness to face challenges or make a decisive move.
I'm ready.
The speaker is prepared for a change or a new phase.
