Lyrics
Submerged, it hurts
Expressing the pain of being submerged.
When you feel like the whole weight of the world
Feeling the overwhelming burden of the world.
Is trapped on your shoulders
Sense of being trapped with heavy responsibilities.
And everything you do just seems to make it worse
Actions seem to worsen the situation despite efforts.
Underwater
Metaphorically underwater, suffocating under life's challenges.
Feeling like you're suffocating under the Earth
Intense feeling of suffocation and pressure.
The stars look like the sky's chandelier
Stars symbolize beauty, but they are distant and unattainable.
And I cannot seem to ever make them reappear
Difficulty in bringing back joy or positive aspects.
The ocean is surrounding me
Surrounded by vastness, symbolizing life's complexities.
But I can't find out what's underneath
Struggling to understand the depth of life's challenges.
I need a lifeguard, I need a jumpstart
Desire for external help, a metaphor for seeking assistance.
Help me, I'm drowning
Direct plea for help, feeling overwhelmed and drowning.
Beachballs, seagulls
Imagery of carefree beach life in contrast to personal struggles.
What I first see when washed up on the shore
Initial observations upon facing personal challenges.
When I was on the ocean floor
Reflecting on a challenging time spent at rock bottom.
I felt like I was Poseidon's prisoner of war
Feeling captive, drawing a mythological reference to Poseidon.
Sailboats, raincoats
References to ordinary life amidst personal struggles.
I know it ain't much, but I'm makin' the most
Finding positivity in making the most of limited circumstances.
Feeling dead, just undiagnosed
Sense of emotional numbness without a clear diagnosis.
And my head is filled with water, and I just can't float
Mental state is overwhelmed, making it challenging to stay afloat.
The ocean is surrounding me
Continued struggle to comprehend life's complexities.
And I can't find out what's underneath
Seeking assistance and guidance from an external source.
I need a lifeguard, I need a jumpstart
Reiteration of the need for a lifeguard and a fresh start.
Help me, I'm drowning
Repetition of the plea for help and the drowning metaphor.
The ocean is surrounding me
Reaffirmation of being surrounded by life's complexities.
But I can't find out what's underneath
Continued struggle to understand the depth of challenges.
I need a lifeguard, I need a jumpstart
Persisting call for external intervention and a fresh start.
Help me, I'm drowning
Reiteration of the desperate plea for help and drowning imagery.
Help me, I'm drowning
Emphatic repetition of the cry for assistance.
Help me, I'm drowning
Final plea for help, emphasizing the severity of the situation.
