Lyrics
Here you thought you'd put the past behind you
Reflecting on attempting to move on from the past.
Why does it all keep coming up again?
Questioning why past issues continue to resurface.
Doubled over in the bathroom crying
Expressing emotional distress, possibly in a private space.
Why does it all keep coming up again?
Reiterating the frustration of recurring past issues.
Like a tourist coming home everything how you left it
Returning home to find everything unchanged, like a tourist.
cnd you thought you'd put the past behind you
Repeating the desire to move on from the past.
Why does it all keep coming up again?
Questioning the persistence of past challenges.
Toss and turn until the nightmare finds you
Experiencing anxiety or nightmares that disrupt sleep.
Why does it always wake you up again?
Questioning why issues always resurface and disturb one's peace.
You stumble out of bed reaching for your medicine
Seeking medication to cope with emotional distress.
Yeah you thought you'd put the past behind you
Reiterating the attempt to leave the past behind.
Why does it all keep coming up again?
Expressing frustration at the persistent return of past issues.
Out your window see the graveyard rising
Observing a rising graveyard outside, symbolizing past troubles.
It's alive - they're all just coming up again
Highlighting the resurgence of past problems and challenges.
Oh god now they're heading this way
Expressing fear as the past issues approach again.
It's the dark night of the living dead
Using a metaphor of the living dead to describe the return of troubles.
cnd you're losing your head
Suggesting a sense of panic and chaos.
You go for your phone
Reaching for the phone, possibly seeking help or escape.
cs the sleeping pills start kicking in
Referencing the influence of sleeping pills.
cnd the room starts to spin
Describing a disorienting and unsettling experience.
You think to yourself
Internal monologue questioning the unexpected turn of events.
This isn't how it's supposed to happen
Expressing disbelief at the current situation.
But you got what wanted
Acknowledging achievement but with unexpected consequences.
Yeah they all want you now
Highlighting newfound attention or recognition.
The pale faces looking in
Describing the gaze of others, possibly critical or judgmental.
cnd this where we leave you
Announcing a departure or conclusion.
It won't come up again.
Asserting that the past won't resurface again.
