Lyrics
Day after day, I'm wasting away
Expressing a sense of deterioration and despair in daily life.
Erase all my thoughts as my body decays
Trying to eliminate negative thoughts while the body undergoes decay.
This future is dead, theres poison thoughts in my head
Describing a bleak and hopeless future, plagued by toxic thoughts.
Am i doomed to repeat all these words that you said?
Questioning the repetition of negative words and experiences.
I am not your victim, and i won't give in
Asserting independence and resilience against becoming a victim.
I will not be controlled by my fear
Refusing to be controlled by fear, indicating a determination to overcome it.
Just let go, of everything
Encouraging the act of letting go, releasing attachments and burdens.
It's all you know
Suggesting that letting go is the only familiar or habitual response.
Theres a world outside your window
Pointing out the existence of a broader world beyond personal struggles.
A life outside of your door

All this time you have been searching
Reflecting on a prolonged search for something elusive.
When you could have had it all

So sick of running

From all the trouble chasing you
Acknowledging the persistent challenges pursuing the individual.
Don't get yourself stuck
Warning against getting trapped or immobilized in difficult situations.
Lying on the ground all alone
Visualizing a sense of isolation and vulnerability on the ground.
A thousand times it has been said to me
Reiteration of advice to let go and liberate oneself from burdens.
Just let it go set yourself free
Emphasizing the importance of releasing and freeing oneself.
I have a stomach for a heart
Metaphorically describing emotional resilience with a strong stomach.
I am a hybrid machine
Describing a personal identity that combines human and machine elements.
This air we breathe is toxic
Portraying the surrounding environment as harmful and debilitating.
And it'll bring you to your knees
Indicating the potential to be brought to a submissive position by external factors.
I am not your victim, and i won't give in
Reiterating resistance against victimhood and fear control.
I will not be controlled by my fear
Affirming determination to resist control by fear.
Just let go, of everything
Echoing the theme of letting go as a solution to inner conflicts.
It's all you know

This is the art of letting go
Explicitly stating that the essence of the message is the art of letting go.
Theres a world outside your window
Restating the existence of a world beyond personal struggles.
A life outside of your door
