Regression
Unveiling Hidden Realities: Regression by With Some Friends
Lyrics
You can't stand me with a chip on my shoulder
You find it difficult to tolerate me when I'm irritated or annoyed.
We'll see who's laughing when it's said and over
We'll determine who has the last laugh when everything is settled and concluded.
Take me to a better place
Take me to a more positive and favorable environment.
Where they see me as who I'm supposed to be
Bring me to a place where people recognize and accept me for who I truly am.
You were nothing before me
You had no significance or importance before our connection.
Then I gave you a stance
I provided you with a distinct position or perspective.
Had it all right in front you
Everything you needed was right in front of you, but you are aware deep down that you lack the qualities of a true leader.
But deep down you know you're not the man
You may appear in control, but internally, you acknowledge that you don't possess the qualities of a true leader.
A mirror image of me
You are a reflection of me, part of a larger plan or design.
All apart of the plan
All of this is intentional and part of a greater scheme.
Wishing for a perfect life
Desiring a flawless life, but ending up in a disappointing and unpleasant reality.
End up in a bitter dream
The perfect life you wished for turns into a harsh and unfulfilling dream.
I will not get down
Refusing to submit or yield, maintaining strength and resilience.
Down on my knees
Not willing to humble oneself or beg.
Maybe I'm not meant to be perfect
Accepting that perfection might not be achievable.
Keep questioning if it's worth it
Continually questioning whether the pursuit of perfection is worthwhile.
Driving through the city
Traveling through the city.
She told its over
She declared that it's over between us.
You ever feel so fucked up you that you feel sober
Experiencing a state of being messed up to the point of feeling clear-headed or sober.
Sometimes two people have to fall apart
Sometimes, it's necessary for two individuals to separate to understand themselves and determine their true needs.
To figure out who they are
The process of falling apart reveals one's true identity.
And who they need to be
Identifying who one needs to be, either together or apart.
That's together or apart
Expressing the ambivalence of being together or apart.
But I don't wanna be apart
Expressing a desire to remain together despite the challenges.
Wishing for a perfect life
Repeating the theme of desiring a perfect life, which leads to a bitter and disappointing dream.
End up in a bitter dream
Reiterating the contrast between an ideal life and a harsh reality.
I will not get down
Insisting on not surrendering or bowing down.
Down on my knees
Remaining steadfast and not kneeling in submission.
Maybe I'm not meant to be perfect
Accepting imperfection and continually questioning the value of the pursuit of perfection.
Keep questioning if it's worth it
Ongoing reflection on whether the pursuit of perfection is worthwhile.
I don't wanna be apart
Expressing a strong desire not to be separated.
