Escape
Escape the Chains of Self-Doubt: Thomas Day's Poetic Journey
Lyrics
I think I've got a deeper problem
The speaker feels they have a profound issue.
Its rooted in my mind these seeds they start to slowly blossom
This problem originates in their mind and gradually develops.
And all the words that should've never been said
Regret for spoken words that should have stayed unsaid.
Yeah they come tumbling out my mouth before I fall into my bed yeah
Words spill out before sleep, possibly causing trouble.
Oh did I fuck it up again
Admitting to making a mistake again.
Babe I'd rather tell you someday than wait until the bitter end
Prefer honesty before things worsen.
So dont go before you've even let me know
Asking the partner not to leave without communication.
A time and place where we can kick it out
Wanting to resolve issues at a designated time and place.
Where you can maybe show me how
Openness to learning from the partner.
You really like to get down
Interest in the partner's preferences.
We can take it slow or we can put it in surround
Offering choices in the relationship pace.
I don't really mind if I waste away the night with ya
Comfortable spending time together, regardless of activity.
There ain't a better thing in my mind baby I assure ya
Expressing the partner's value.
So don't strain you ain't gotta explain
Asking the partner not to explain painful past experiences.
The darkest corners of your heart that others filled with so much pain
Encouraging self-compassion and forgiveness.
Just give yourself a break babe
Encouraging the partner to take a break from distress.
Honey come with me we'll get away yeah we can escape
Inviting the partner to escape hardships together.
Honey come with me we'll get away yeah we can escape
Repetition of the invitation to escape together.
I'm spending half my time just freaking out
Feeling anxious and troubled frequently.
Wrestling with demons tied up with my own self doubt
Struggling with personal doubts and inner conflicts.
And maybe it's a curse followed by a verse on how I feel
Considering expressing feelings through music or art.
Can't conceal how words are painting sounds to make it real
Words create vivid emotions and realities.
And yeah I need a bit of space sometimes
Expressing the need for personal space occasionally.
It ain't a crime right?
Asserting that needing space isn't wrong.
Don't be so uptight
Encouraging a more relaxed attitude.
You can try and bell me on my phone
Acknowledging missed calls but occupied elsewhere.
But I'll be chilling with the bros
Spending time with friends or alone with music.
Or on my own with Loyle seeping through my headphones
Listening to music alone, possibly for solace.
And baby I ain't being mean
Asserting a lack of intention to hurt.
Yeah that's the last thing I ever wanted you to still believe
Reaffirming a desire for understanding.
So don't come out on attack
Requesting not to confront aggressively.
To distract from the fact that you need
Advising the partner to acknowledge their need for support.
Someone that can always pick you up when you're deceived
Offering continuous support in tough times.
And don't you ever let the pain
Urging not to let pain overpower.
Tower over you like clouds of darker rain
Commitment to be present through difficult moments.
I'll be here from setting sun to break of day
Willingness to escape hardships together.
Say the word we'll get away just leave and escape
Ready to depart together, seeking an escape.
Honey come with me we'll get away yeah we can escape
Reiteration of the desire to escape hardships together.
