breakdown
Navigating the Brink: Embracing Chaos with This Coast Bias
Lyrics
I think we're heading for a breakdown
I sense that a crisis or emotional collapse is approaching.
I feel on top of the world and no I ain't coming down
I currently feel extremely happy and successful, and I don't want this feeling to end.
Can't talk me outta my feels, Imma tread water till I drown
My emotions are intense, and I won't let anyone persuade me otherwise. I'll keep going until I can't handle it anymore.
Don't tell me to tap on the brakes, you know you're wasting your breath
Don't advise me to slow down or be cautious; it's futile.
Someday, I'll learn, but for now
Eventually, I'll gain wisdom, but for now,
I'm gonna make the miles count
I will make the most of every moment and experience.
I think we're heading for a breakdown
The belief that a breakdown is imminent persists.
Check engine light is on
The warning signs (check engine light) are visible.
We've been on empty since the last town
We've been running on empty, lacking resources, since the last town.
And money for gas is gone
We're out of money for fuel.
Last exit coming up now
The last opportunity to exit is approaching.
But I still smash the pedal
Despite the impending crisis, I continue to accelerate.
I know we're headed for a breakdown
I acknowledge that we're headed for a breakdown.
With no sign of coming dawn
No indication that a positive change is on the horizon.
Road weary down to the core but I won't cut off the side
Exhausted from the journey but unwilling to take a break.
Won't take my foot off the gas, ain't gonna look at the signs
Refusing to slow down or pay attention to warnings.
All I do is I do what I want, may as well have my fun
Choosing to do what I want, prioritizing enjoyment over consequences.
One day, I'll stop, but for now
Someday, I'll stop and be responsible, but not now.
Not gonna take the scenic route
Avoiding the scenic, leisurely route, and sticking to the direct path towards the breakdown.
I think we're heading for a breakdown
The belief in an impending crisis persists.
Check engine light is on
The warning signs (check engine light) persist.
We've been on empty since the last town
Continuing with no resources since the last town.
And money for gas is gone
Out of money for fuel again.
Last exit coming up now
Last chance to exit is approaching again.
But I still smash the pedal
Despite the impending crisis, I continue to accelerate.
I know we're headed for a breakdown
Reaffirming the knowledge that a breakdown is inevitable.
With no sign of coming dawn
No sign that a positive change is on the way.
