Spaced Out
Finding Meaning Amidst Distractions: Spaced Out by The Deadrise
Lyrics
I thought I woke up from my rest that lasted
I believed I woke up from a long period of rest
A few long years, I don't want to talk about it
I don't want to discuss the details of the past few years
But as soon as I get kicked on these old habits
Despite trying to break old habits, I find myself dissatisfied
I'm just never satisfied, I'm so distracted
I am easily distracted and never feel content
Mmm, Mmm
(Repetition, no specific meaning)
To put this to who's listening
Addressing those who are listening
And moving through this life
Reflecting on the journey through life
We've been around this world here
Expressing experience of traversing the world multiple times
For many countless times
Reiteration of extensive worldly experience
So why don't you give up
Suggesting giving up or surrendering
And why don't you give in
Repeating the idea of yielding or giving in
When I just want to walk away and go running with this content heart I've found
Expressing a desire to walk away and embrace a content heart
What have I been doing
Questioning one's actions during the passage of time
When months have passed me by
Reflecting on time passing without a clear purpose
When something's got me stuck here
Feeling stuck or hindered by something
When I just can't see why
Unable to comprehend the reason for feeling stuck
And now I'm spaced out, I was looking down
Describing a state of detachment or distraction
Thinking of hanging it up for awhile
Contemplating taking a break or giving up for a while
Spaced out, now it's hard to talk about
Finding it challenging to discuss the detached state
Spaced out, I was looking down
Repeating the feeling of looking down and considering quitting
Thinking of hanging it up for awhile
Reiterating the difficulty of talking about the detached state
Spaced out, now it's hard to talk about
Expressing the difficulty of discussing the detached state
Now I cannot say the least, that this is not for me
Claiming an inability to say for certain that a situation is not suitable
It's just another way the whole world wants you to think
Suggesting societal expectations influencing thoughts
Oh, Contrary to belief, this self-love's not what I need
Challenging the idea that self-love is essential
I'd rather die to self no matter what the cost
Expressing a preference for self-sacrifice regardless of the consequences
And now I'm spaced out, I was looking down
Repeating the theme of feeling detached or distracted
Thinking of hanging it up for awhile
Reiterating the contemplation of taking a break or quitting
Spaced out, now it's hard to talk about
Repeating the challenge of discussing the detached state
Spaced out, I was looking down
Repeating the feeling of looking down and considering quitting
Thinking of hanging it up for awhile
Reiterating the difficulty of talking about the detached state
Spaced out, now it's hard to talk about
Expressing the ongoing challenge of discussing the detached state
