Left Hand
Navigating the Maze of Emotions: Yellowlees' 'Left Hand' Meaning
Lyrics
I'm caught up between fight or flight
I am torn between the instinct to fight and the instinct to flee
I've had enough of keeping things inside
I've reached a point where I can't keep my emotions bottled up anymore
I think I want to run but my legs are paralyzed
Though I desire to escape, my fear or anxiety is preventing me from moving
Every single one of my yesterdays has turned into paradise
All my past experiences have transformed into something positive
I know I'm no fun anymore
I acknowledge that I'm no longer enjoyable or lively
I've settled in to the cold, and I'm scared of getting warm
I've adapted to a cold and distant state, fearing the vulnerability of becoming warm
Does anybody know how to be a human being
Seeking guidance on how to navigate the complexities of being a human
Can anybody show me what to do with all the feelings
Yearning for someone to guide and help cope with overwhelming emotions
Teach me how to live, remind me how to spend the time
Requesting assistance in learning how to live and effectively utilize time
I'm dying to remember what that is, I'd kill to know what it's like
Expressing a strong desire to recall past experiences and understand their significance
I just wish that I could wake myself up from this daze, because these days I've been feeling so rough
Wishing to break free from a state of confusion or numbness, feeling physically and emotionally rough
And I can't recall my old ways, it's all just notes that I can't play
Unable to remember previous behaviors, struggling with musical metaphors to convey the loss
Help me out, I can't find my way down
Seeking assistance to find a way out of a difficult situation or emotional state
I hate to fixate, but I can't make it go away
Expressing dislike for obsessive thoughts that persist but can't be eliminated
Does anybody know how to be a human being
Reiterating the plea for guidance on how to navigate the complexities of being human
Can anybody show me what to do with all the feelings
Continuing the request for assistance in dealing with overwhelming emotions
I'm so scared I'll never be what I used to
Fearful of not returning to a previous state of being
I'm so scared that it's a feeling I've grown used to
Expressing fear of becoming accustomed to a negative feeling or state
I'm sure that it'll pass, but I'm scared at how my parts aren't working like they should
Believing that the challenging phase will pass, but concerned about bodily functions not working properly
I'll fight it in the morning, but tonight just indulge me, when I say I don't feel good
Planning to confront challenges in the morning, but seeking understanding and empathy for the current emotional state
Does anybody know how to be a human being
Reiterating the need for guidance in navigating human experiences
Can anybody show me what to do with all the feelings
Continuing the plea for assistance in managing overwhelming emotions
I'm so scared I'll never be what I used to
Fearful of not returning to a previous state of being
I'm so scared that it's a feeling I've grown used to
Expressing fear of becoming accustomed to a negative feeling or state
