Lyrics
I'm shaking like a kettle
I feel anxious or nervous, like a kettle about to boil.
That's been filled beyond the safety line
I've exceeded a safe limit, possibly in a risky situation.
You came to test my mettle
You've come to challenge my strength or resilience.
But I'm plastic
I am resilient and unyielding, like plastic.
I'm plastic
-I'm sinking like a stomach
I'm sinking emotionally, feeling heavy like a troubled stomach.
Inside a man you say is not good enough
I'm sinking because someone says I'm not good enough.
Simon says that I should play more gigs
Advice to perform more and gain experience from Simon.
Expose myself and get experienced
Expose myself to new things to grow.
I'm alone
I'm physically alone, but I don't feel lonely.
But I'm not lonely
-I'm a fool
Admitting foolishness but asserting resistance to deception.
But you won't fool me
-I'm not cruel
I'm not intentionally unkind, but I need guidance.
But I need you to show me
-I'm a fool
Repetition of being a fool, questioning if the other person truly knows me.
Do you even know me
-Forget the family
Suggesting to forget family ties.
Kill the know it all
Rejecting know-it-alls and their influence.
Ashes fall and dust coats the wall
Describing a scene of destruction, urging to endure it without resistance.
Breathe it in
-Hold back the cough
-Coat your lungs
-Don't shake it off
Resist the urge to shake off difficulties.
I'm alone
Reiteration of being physically alone but not feeling lonely.
But I'm not lonely
-I'm a fool
Acknowledging foolishness but resisting deception.
But you won't fool me
-I'm not cruel
Not intentionally unkind, seeking guidance.
But I need you to show me
-I'm a fool
Repetition of being a fool, questioning if the other person truly knows me.
Do you even know me
-Writing words in my home
Writing words at home, acknowledging that every line is dedicated to someone.
On my sofa my throne
-And you know every line is for you
-I'm a fool guess it's true
Admitting foolishness and learning from someone else.
But I learned that from you
-Thank the friends and the fans for the years
Expressing gratitude to friends and fans for being part of the journey.
And for being a part of it
-Do you know how it feels
Reflecting on the struggles and fights for success.
I've been fighting for years
-I've been close to the top
-We've been close to the top
Highlighting nearness to achieving a dream.
Is a teenage dream worth all this loss
Questioning if the dream is worth the losses.
I'm alone
Reiteration of physical aloneness but emotional resilience.
But I'm not lonely
-I'm a fool
Acknowledging foolishness but resisting deception.
But you won't fool me
-I'm not cruel
Not intentionally unkind, seeking guidance.
But I need you to show me
-I'm a fool
Repetition of being a fool, questioning if the other person truly knows me.
Do you even know me
-I'm not cruel but it's true
Not intentionally unkind, but acknowledging the truth of a situation.
It takes two but I'm not over it
-Alone but I don't feel the need
Being alone without feeling the need to change.
For me to snap out of it
-Writing words in my home
Writing words at home, asserting the truth in every line.
On my sofa my throne
-And you know every line is the truth
-I'm a fool guess it's true
Admitting foolishness and learning from someone else.
But I learned that from you
-Thank the friends and the fans for the years
Expressing gratitude to friends and fans for being part of the journey.
And for being a part of it
