Lyrics
When what you left behind
Reflecting on what was left behind in the past.
Feels more important than the present time
Valuing past experiences more than the present moment.
When you close your eyes
Closing one's eyes, possibly to escape or reminisce.
She's still the first thing that comes to mind
Continuing to think about someone from the past.
I never wanted me to feel this way
Expressing an unexpected or undesired emotional state.
But now I'm here
Acknowledging the current emotional state.
And when she comes around
Positive emotions arise when the mentioned person is present.
I feel that I'm alive, I'm alive
Feeling alive and vibrant when in the presence of that person.
I am only dreaming I'll be waking up late
Realizing the current state might be a dream, postponing awakening.
When you don't recognize yourself
Experiencing a lack of self-recognition or identity.
You never made it past the second shelf
Failing to progress in personal growth, symbolized by "second shelf."
When you keep telling yourself lies
Engaging in self-deception or denial through lies.
Feels like you're breathing but living is hell
Existence feels challenging, possibly indicating a difficult life.
I never wanted me to feel this way
Reiterating the undesired emotional state mentioned earlier.
But now I'm here
Acknowledging the current emotional state again.
And when she comes around
Positive emotions resurface with the presence of the mentioned person.
I feel that I'm alive, I'm alive
Feeling alive and vibrant again in the presence of that person.
I am only dreaming I'll be waking up late
Reiterating the dream-like state, delaying waking up to reality.
