Lyrics

Am I stuck in the past looking forward

Feeling trapped or fixated on past experiences while trying to move forward.

Did I stray too far from the lane

Questioning if deviating from a chosen path has led to challenges or regrets.

Everybody's moving, changing

Observing the constant changes around, possibly feeling stagnant or resistant.

But here I remain

Despite changes, remaining in the same situation or mindset.

I retrace the steps I haven't taken

Reflecting on unexplored paths and questioning personal identity.

Have I lost myself along the way

Concern about losing one's true self in the journey of life.

Everybody's thinking long-term

Others planning for the long term, while the speaker struggles with day-to-day challenges.

How do I last the day

Questioning how to endure or survive daily life.

Freedom is an illusion

Suggesting that the idea of freedom may be deceptive or unattainable.

Certainty is a myth

Expressing skepticism about the existence of certainty in life.

When you are the last person

Being the least desirable person to be with, possibly due to internal struggles.

You would want to be with

Feeling isolated or undesirable in relationships.

Somewhere on the outside looking inward

Being an outsider looking into one's own life, concealing emotions.

Hiding everything behind my hair

Using physical appearance, specifically hair, as a metaphor for hiding emotions.

Where do I fit in

Questioning one's place or role in the world.

I'm out of place everywhere

Feeling out of sync or out of place in various aspects of life.

Wondering why the years feel shorter

Reflecting on the perceived acceleration of time and its impact on the individual.

Why I spend more time inside my head

Spending more time in introspection, possibly at the expense of external experiences.

Everybody's up and about

Others engaging with life actively while the speaker feels immobilized.

I'm stuck in my bed

Literally or metaphorically feeling stuck and unable to participate in life.

Freedom is an illusion

Reiteration of the idea that freedom may not be as attainable as it seems.

Certainty is a myth

Reinforcing skepticism about the existence of certainty in life.

When you are the last person

Repeating the sense of being undesirable in relationships.

You would want to

Repetition, possibly emphasizing the desire to be with someone despite challenges.

You would want to

-

You would want to

-

To be

-

To be with

Desire for connection or companionship, echoing themes of loneliness.
