Lyrics
As I stand here waiting on the outside
Expressing a sense of anticipation or readiness while being outside.
Loneliness stands with me watching time go by
Loneliness is a constant companion, observing the passage of time.
My memory fades of what's been before
The speaker's recollection of the past is fading.
Trying to prepare for what life has in store
Preparing for the uncertainties that life holds.
I don't think that I need anybody with me
Asserting independence, claiming not to need anyone.
But when I'm gone it might be nice if someone missed me
Recognizing the desire for companionship and the impact of absence.
Just hold me in your heart if you can't hold me in your arms
Suggesting that emotional connection matters more than physical presence.
And I'll leave tonight before the sunrise
Deciding to leave before dawn.
And I run away in my sleep where they can't hear me scream
Seeking solace in dreams to escape from reality.
Sometimes you are with me in my dreams
Acknowledging the presence of a significant other in dreams.
Don't worry, I will find my way I'm on my own, but that's okay
Embracing self-reliance, expressing resilience in solitude.
I've been knocked down, it's not the end
Facing challenges but emphasizing that it's not the end.
Pick myself up and start again
Emphasizing resilience, picking oneself up after setbacks.
As I eat all these bitter pills you feed me
Metaphorically ingesting harsh realities or experiences.
I lick my wounds but they keep bleeding
Continued suffering despite attempts to heal.
Can you please just hear the words that I've gotta say
Pleading for understanding rather than rejection.
Instead of just telling me to go the fuck away
Expressing a desire for empathy instead of being pushed away.
Sometimes I wish I could just coast through and not care
Longing for carefree moments and indifference to troubles.
But when I'm gone will you notice that I am not there
Raising the question of whether absence will be noticed.
Just hold me in your heart if you can't hold me in your arms
Reiterating the importance of emotional connection over physical presence.
And I'll leave tonight before the sunrise
Repeating the decision to leave before sunrise.
And I run away in my sleep where they can't hear me scream Sometimes you are with me in my dreams
Revisiting the theme of seeking refuge in dreams to escape.
Don't worry, I will find my way I'm on my own, but that's okay
Reaffirming self-reliance and acceptance of solitude.
I've been knocked down, it's not the end
Stressing resilience after facing challenges.
Pick myself up and start again
Repeating the message of bouncing back after setbacks.
And start again And start again
Emphasizing the idea of starting anew, possibly a mantra for resilience.
And start again And start again
-And start again And start again
-And start again And start again
-And I run away in my sleep Where they can't hear me scream
Reiterating the use of dreams as an escape from reality.
Sometimes you're with me in my dreams
Acknowledging the presence of a significant other in dreams.
Don't worry, I will find my way I'm on my own, but that's okay
Reiterating self-reliance and acceptance of solitude.
I may be knocked down, it's not the end Pick myself up
Highlighting the temporary nature of setbacks, emphasizing resilience.
And start again
Reaffirming the commitment to pick oneself up and begin anew.
