Back on Your Bullshit
Struggling in Your Shadow: The Downcast's Tale of Broken Promises
Lyrics
Here we go again you're back on your bullshit now
Expressing frustration as the person is repeating negative behavior.
Every time I turn around you're there you let me down
Consistently feeling let down whenever the person turns around.
I'm so strung out
Feeling emotionally drained and stressed.
You weigh me down
Feeling burdened or weighed down by the person's actions.
I know I'm better without you
Acknowledging that life is better without the individual in question.
We fall apart but there's something about you
Despite falling apart, there's a lingering attraction or connection.
I want to stay I want to go
Conflicted feelings about staying or leaving.
If I forget you life would be so simple
Imagining life would be simpler if the person is forgotten.
But you live inside my head
The person's influence persists in the mind despite attempts to forget.
I think it's time I raise the rent
Considering raising the emotional "rent" or the cost of being in the person's life.
Here we go again you're back on your bullshit now
Reiterating frustration with the person's recurring negative behavior.
Every time I turn around you're there you let me down
Continued disappointment and letdowns.
In my mind I picture you in that beach front house
Imagining the person in an idealized setting, possibly reflecting on past dreams together.
With empty promises you pull me in again
Being drawn in again by promises that end up being empty.
You pull me in again
Repeatedly getting pulled back into the same negative cycle.
I'll think this time
Skeptical about the person's sincerity this time.
That you're wasting mine
Feeling that the person is wasting the speaker's time.
No choices on the line when all you want to do is
No options or decisions are clear when the person is only pretending.
Fake your way through everything
Faking their way through life, avoiding authenticity.
With cigarettes and promise rings
Using destructive habits like cigarettes and insincere commitments.
While I live inside your phone
The speaker's presence exists primarily in the person's phone, suggesting a distant connection.
So call me when you feel alone
A request to be called when the person feels lonely, indicating dependency.
Here we go again you're back on your bullshit now
Repetition of frustration with the person's recurring negative behavior.
Every time I turn around you're there you let me down
Continued disappointment and letdowns.
In my mind I picture you in that beach front house
Revisiting the imagined scenario of the person in a beachfront house with broken promises.
With empty promises you pull me in again
Getting drawn in again by the person's empty promises.
You pull me in again
Repetition of being pulled back into the negative cycle.
You pull me in again
Emphasizing the recurring nature of being pulled in.
You pull me in again
Highlighting the repeated cycle of getting drawn back in.
You pull me in again
Repetition to emphasize being pulled in again.
Here we go again you're back on your bullshit now
Reiterating frustration with the person's recurring negative behavior.
Every time I turn around you're there you let me down
Continued disappointment and letdowns.
In my mind I picture you in that beach front house
Imagining the person in an idealized setting, possibly reflecting on past dreams together.
With empty promises you pull me in again
Being drawn in again by promises that end up being empty.
