Lyrics
It's late at night
Expressing the lateness of the night.
But you're not giving up
Demonstrating resilience and determination despite challenges.
I can run but I just can't hide
Feeling unable to escape or avoid a situation.
Don't wanna play this game
Expressing a reluctance to participate in a problematic situation.
Cause I've had enough
Conveying a sense of reaching a limit or breaking point.
I always end up on the losing side
Consistently ending up on the losing side in situations.
If I let you into my head
Considering the consequences of allowing someone into one's thoughts.
I know I'll be dead
Expecting negative outcomes if someone gains access to one's thoughts.
You're gonna send me
Anticipating negative effects or influence from the person.
Right out of my mind
Fearing a loss of mental stability or control.
If you get me in a choke hold
Expressing vulnerability to a potentially harmful situation.
I know there's no hope
Losing hope in a situation that seems dire.
They'll be looking for a sign of life
Expecting others to notice or search for evidence of vitality.
My eyes can't seem
Unable to see or acknowledge something crucial.
To recognise
Difficulty in recognizing the depth of a problematic situation.
The hole that you've dug me in
Feeling trapped or overwhelmed by circumstances.
You lit the fire inside
Being ignited emotionally, followed by abandonment.
And then you cut me off
Experiencing emotional distress again after being left.
Now I'm burnin' up all over again
Metaphorical burning up with intense emotions.
If I let you into my head
Reiterating the potential harm of allowing someone into thoughts.
I know I'll be dead
Expecting negative consequences if thoughts are shared.
You're gonna send me
Anticipating mental disturbance if influenced by the person.
Right out of my mind
Fearing loss of sanity if caught in a harmful situation.
If you get me in a choke hold
Expressing hopelessness in a situation with no apparent solution.
I know there's no hope
Feeling despair in a situation with little or no optimism.
They'll be looking for a sign of life
Anticipating others searching for evidence of vitality or existence.
How'd you get under my skin?
Questioning how someone managed to deeply affect the speaker.
To pick the bones from within
Metaphorically extracting the essential elements from within.
I know you're turning me inside out
Acknowledging the transformative impact of someone on the speaker.
When they pull me out of the flood
Reflecting on a rescue from a challenging situation.
And I'm staring down from above
Contemplating the aftermath and consequences of a challenging experience.
They'll be looking for a sign of life
Expecting others to search for signs of life after a difficult ordeal.
