I Got Lost
Navigating Life's Detours: The Meaning Behind 'I Got Lost' by The March Divide
Lyrics
Every morning, I drag myself to the mirror,
Reflecting on the start of each day, facing oneself in the mirror.
Pull a comb through my hair, & hope I'm ready for the day
Performing routine grooming with the anticipation of being prepared for the day ahead.
Where'd I put my keys? I hate this routine,
Expressing frustration with the mundane task of finding keys.
Grab a coffee to go, & it's out the door for me
Getting a coffee and leaving home in a hurry.
Wondering, How the hell did this ever happen to me?
Questioning how the current life situation came to be.
But I got lost on my way to work,
Acknowledging a deviation from the usual route to work.
I took a path I'd never took,
Choosing an unfamiliar path on the way to work.
& I feel like I've got somewhere else to be,
Feeling a sense of belonging elsewhere, not at the workplace.
Like there's so much more out here for me
Sensing that there is more to life outside the current routine.
& when I finally find my way,
Successfully finding the correct route but realizing it's too late.
I've missed half the day, & I can't explain why I'm late
Regretting the lost time and struggling to justify being late.
I just came to say, I won't make it in today
Announcing the decision not to go to work due to being lost and late.
Cause I got lost on my way to work,
Reiterating the theme of getting lost on the way to work.
I took a path I'd never took,
Continuing the narrative of taking an unfamiliar path.
& I feel like I've got somewhere else to be,
Expressing a feeling of being meant for something beyond the current job.
Like there's so much more out here for me
Believing that there are greater opportunities outside the usual routine.
Every morning, I drag myself to the mirror,
Repeating the morning routine, emphasizing the cyclical nature of the experience.
Pull a comb through my hair, & hope I'm ready for the day
Ending the day with the same routine, suggesting a lack of progress or change.
