Lyrics

The day I realized it was too late

The realization of a missed opportunity or mistake occurred too late.

That I was fighting against myself

The internal struggle or conflict involves battling against oneself.

Overthinking every little step I take

Excessive contemplation of every small action or decision.

Has been keeping me awake at night

The constant overthinking is causing insomnia or sleeplessness.


I wanted everything, but nothing’s ever good enough

A desire for everything, yet nothing seems satisfying or fulfilling.

How could I be this way?

Questioning one's own nature or behavior.

How could I live my life and not realize that I am the one

Living life without self-awareness, not realizing personal responsibility.

Standing in my own way - standing in my wa-aa-aay, standing in my wa-aa-ay

The realization that the person is hindering their own progress and success.


Waking up already running out of time

Starting the day already feeling rushed or pressured by time.

But maybe that is life

Acceptance that feeling time-poor might be an inherent aspect of life.

Letting my mind go traveling

Allowing the mind to wander while physically staying in one place.

While I remain quietly in place

A contrast between mental exploration and physical stagnation.


I wanted everything, but nothing’s ever good enough

Despite wanting everything, nothing seems to meet expectations.

How could I be this way?

Continued self-reflection on one's own nature or actions.

How could I live my life and not realize that I am the one

Living life without recognizing one's own role in hindering progress.

Standing in my own way - standing in my wa-aa-aay, standing in my wa-aa-ay

Acknowledging self-sabotage and obstructing personal growth.


These fights in my head

Internal conflicts causing mental distress and anxiety.

Driving me insane

Frustration and distress intensify due to ongoing mental battles.

Afraid something's gonna change

Fearful anticipation of change and its potential consequences.

And I hate

An expression of strong dislike or resentment towards something.

These nights in my bed

Nights filled with internal struggles and difficulty in finding peace.

Tryna get some sleep

Attempting to sleep while facing internal turmoil.

For once

An expressed desire for a rare moment of rest or tranquility.


I wanted everything, but nothing’s ever good enough

Yearning for everything, yet facing perpetual dissatisfaction.

How could I be this way?

Ongoing self-reflection and questioning of personal behavior.

How could I live my life and not realize that I am the one

Living without realizing personal responsibility for hindering progress.

Standing in my own way

A reaffirmation of obstructing one's own path to success.

standing in my wa-aa-aay, standing in my wa-aa-aay, standing in my wa-aa-ay

Reiteration of the acknowledgment of self-sabotage.
