Bad Timing
Embracing Growth Through Bad Timing
Lyrics
Timing, bad timing
Expressing the theme of bad timing as a recurrent issue.
That's all I have always been
Identifying with a consistent pattern of having bad timing throughout life.
Finding ways to quit
Searching for ways to quit or break free from negative patterns.
Til ya pick back up those same habits
Resuming old habits despite the intention to quit.
I was so close, nose to nose
Describing a close encounter, being face-to-face, yet losing control with closed eyes.
Staring straight into those holes
-But my eyes closed, lost control
-You don't win
Philosophical reflection on growth; it's neither winning nor losing but evolving.
You don't lose
-You just grow
-Trying, keep trying
Continuing efforts to break free from a confined situation or mindset.
To escape this jar you've been trapped in
-For the lightning starts to bleed
-And we all need holes in lids to breathe
-I was so close, nose to nose
Reiterating the theme of a close encounter with loss of control.
Staring straight into those holes
-But my eyes closed, lost control
-You don't win
Reiterating the idea that growth is the constant, regardless of winning or losing.
You don't lose
-You just grow
-I was so close, nose to nose
Repeating the pattern of a close encounter and the subsequent growth.
Staring straight into those holes
-But my eyes closed, lost control
-You don't win
-You don't lose
-You just grow
-There's a last call coming
Introducing the concept of a decisive moment (last call) with potential life-changing consequences.
Last call take it from me
-Gonna close down everything you used to think you believed
-But they're never gonna let you, never gonna let you leave
-Gotta gift, stop taking the lift, start waking up
Suggesting a need to change, stop relying on external influences, and awaken from a brainwashed state.
Brainwashed waiting for a reason not to stay stuck
-But your wheels keep spinning
Despite efforts to move forward, facing obstacles or getting stuck in a repetitive cycle.
Wheels keep spinning mud
-Its never gonna set you
Expressing doubt about finding freedom and hope for someone to stop waiting for a change.
Never gonna set you free
-Hoped you'd quit waiting
-Staying up waiting for me
