Lyrics

So this is your life

This is an introduction to the subject's life.

And how you feel

Addressing the emotions or mental state of the individual.

I see you reaching out

Noticing the person seeking genuine connection or authenticity.

For something real

Desire for something real or meaningful.

You're trapped inside your head again can't find no peace of mind

Feeling mentally confined and unable to find peace.

Falling over backwards but you can't fall in line

Struggling to conform to societal norms or expectations.

This is your life

Reiteration of the subject's life.

And this is how you feel

Revisiting the emotional state or perspective of the person.

They're gonna take it all

Expectation of losing everything and being dismissed.

Then send you on your way

Being abandoned or disregarded after losing possessions or status.

You're always drifting off

Tendency to drift away, possibly from reality or focus.

Got your head in space

Being preoccupied with thoughts or ideas that are distant or impractical.

You're reaching for that future but you can't shake the past

Aspiring for the future but being haunted by past experiences.

Tryna move on forward but you can't make it last

Attempting progress but struggling to maintain it.

This is your life

Reiteration of the subject's life and emotional state.

And this is how you feel

Reemphasizing how the person feels about their life.

They're gonna burn it all down

Expectation of destruction or ruin of everything.

While you're standing on that shore

While facing an inevitable catastrophe or change.

Are you ready for that hell

Questioning readiness for a challenging situation or experience.

And while you're standing hands out

In a vulnerable position, seeking help or support.

And you're begging them for more

Begging for assistance or solutions while facing difficulties.

This is my life in my hometown

Personal reflection on life within the home environment or familiar surroundings.

Said I'll be living my life

Commitment to living life in a certain way after a specific time.

Ten years on

Reflecting on a decade that has passed.

Don't ya know it's lovely here

Describing the current place or situation as pleasant and harmonious.

Yeah we all get along

Claiming that everyone gets along in this context.

I'll be sippin' on my wine again, I'm always in the grass

Engaging in leisure activities, possibly escaping or avoiding reality.

Toastin' to that future coz I finally made it last

Celebrating a successful continuation or accomplishment in life.

This is my life

Reiteration of the individual's life perspective.

And this is how I feel

Reemphasizing personal emotions or state of being.

They're gonna burn it all down

Anticipating the destruction of everything again.

While you're standing on that shore

While facing a catastrophic event or change as an observer.

Are you ready for that hell

Asking if preparedness exists for an impending challenging situation or experience.

And while you're standing hands out

In a vulnerable position again, seeking assistance or support.

And you're begging them for more

Begging for help or solutions in a difficult scenario.

This is my life in my hometown

Reflecting on life within the hometown, emphasizing personal roots or origins.

Because the blind man

Highlighting a lack of guidance or leadership.

Has no leader

Indicating that without guidance, certain concepts or facts might be forgotten.

You'll forget it

A declaration of removing or erasing something.

I'll delete it

A statement emphasizing the need for progress and advancement.

Get with the program

Encouraging conformity or adherence to a plan or idea for progress.

We want progress

Expressing a collective desire for advancement or development.

We want more

An assertion for wanting more or further progress.
