Lyrics

I see better in the dark

I perceive things more clearly in challenging or obscure situations.

It takes a while but I adjust

Adaptation takes time, but eventually, I find my equilibrium.

The sky hangs over like a ceiling

The sky above seems like a barrier or limit.

The ground is solid steel and

The ground is unyielding and strong, emphasizing stability.

I'm magnetized down

I feel irresistibly drawn or attached to the ground.


Moon feels hazy in my arms

The moon has a dreamlike quality as I hold it in my arms.

The fog comes creeping up the lawn

A mysterious fog approaches, covering the surroundings.

It hits my mouth so I can feel the

The fog reaches my mouth, creating a sensation of anticipation.

Condensation waiting

Condensation is building up, hinting at a looming emotional saturation.

To drown me out

This saturation is waiting to overwhelm and silence me.


I wish that I could know myself

Expressing a desire for self-understanding.

But I don't want to know

Simultaneously, a reluctance to fully know oneself.

So I wouldn't need nobody else

Not wanting to rely on others by being self-sufficient.

To come in close

Yearning for closeness without vulnerability.


I wish that I could leave myself

Expressing a desire to escape from oneself.

But there's nowhere to go

Feeling trapped with no apparent escape.

So I wouldn't need nobody else

Desiring connection with others to alleviate the sense of entrapment.

To come in close

Seeking closeness with others for emotional relief.


'Cause I'm always looking for somebody

Repeatedly searching for someone who can provide temporary emotional numbness.

I'm always looking for somebody

-

I'm always looking for somebody

-

Who can make my body temporarily numb

Desiring someone who can provide a temporary escape from emotions.


The longer I look up the lower I go

Emphasizing a pattern of descending or sinking further into emotional turmoil.

The longer I look up the lower I go

-

The longer I look up the lower I go

-

Longer I look up the lower I go

-

The longer I look up the lower I go

-

(Longer I look up the lower I go)

-

Longer I look up the lower I go

-

(The longer I look up the lower I go)

-

Longer I look up the lower I go

-

(Longer I look up the lower I go)

-

The longer I look up the lower I go

-

I'm always looking to the sky like

Continuously looking upward, possibly seeking answers or salvation.

Maybe if I tried to float

Contemplating the possibility of transcending the current state.

Out of my body through my eyes

Suggesting an out-of-body experience as a potential solution.

Could you come in close?

Questioning if closeness is achievable through this transcendence.

I'm always looking to the light like

Continuously looking towards the light, symbolizing hope or clarity.

Baby, if you want to hold me down

Considering the impact of external influences on one's mental state.

You'd make me want to lose my mind

The idea that someone's actions could disrupt emotional stability.


'Cause I'm always looking for somebody

Reiterating the persistent search for someone to provide temporary relief.

I'm always looking for somebody

-

I'm always looking for somebody

-

Who can make my body temporarily numb

Seeking someone who can provide a short-lived escape from emotional pain.
