Riding Through Shadows: The Emotional Journey of 'Depression Bike'
Lyrics
I built a bike last summer
I constructed a bicycle during the past summer
My only friend
The bike became my sole companion
Not even you
Even you (another person) were not a companion
Not even you could understand
Not even you could comprehend my feelings or experiences
Looking back I don't regret it
Reflecting on the past, I do not feel remorse for building the bike
Looking back at the summer sunset
Recalling the summer sunset
My wheels wouldn't spin
The wheels of my bike were stationary
I questioned everything
I doubted and questioned various aspects of life
My yellow bike
Referring to the yellow bike as a source of tranquility
My peace of mind
The yellow bike provided a sense of peace and stability
Now everyone wants to forget it
Others wish to disregard or erase the memory of the bike
Everyone wants to bury it deep
People want to bury the past deeply
Isn't that how we move forward
Suggesting that moving forward involves forgetting and burying past experiences
Like my depression bike
Comparing the bike to depression, possibly indicating a connection between the two
Then I got a girlfriend later that year
Later in the same year, I entered into a relationship
Being with her was like uphill in high gear
Being with the girlfriend felt challenging, like riding uphill in high gear
Why I stayed I am still unclear
Uncertain why I stayed in the relationship
About everything I'm still unclear
General uncertainty about various aspects of life
Looking back I don't regret it
No regret when looking back at the relationship
Looking back at the sunburnt sunset
Recalling a sunset with a sunburnt appearance
My wheels wouldn't spin
The wheels of the bike were still
I questioned everything
Questioning and doubting aspects of life continued
My yellow bike
Referring to the yellow bike as a source of tranquility (repeated)
My peace of mind
The yellow bike provided a sense of peace and stability (repeated)
Now everyone wants to forget it
Others wish to disregard or erase the memory of both relationships (bike and girlfriend)
Everyone wants to bury it deep
People want to bury the past deeply (repeated)
Isn't that how we move forward
Suggesting that moving forward involves forgetting and burying past experiences (repeated)
Like my depression bike
Comparing both the bike and the relationship to depression
Now I'm afraid of getting older here I am getting older
Expressing fear and apprehension about the aging process
My bike used to comfort me here I am backpedaling
The bike, which once provided comfort, now feels like a regression or retreat
I'm afraid of getting older here I am getting older
Reiterating the fear of getting older
My bike used to comfort me here I am backpedaling
The bike, which used to bring comfort, now feels like a backward movement or reconsideration
