I’ve been meaning to ask the question
of why I always come up short
All this effort in trying to be someone
has me shut down and closing doors
So I’ll quit all the meaningless shit
I say to myself when I feel so down
Like ‘you’ve got so far to go kid,
you gotta brave another storm’
But out on these open seas
is just an aimless catastrophe
I’d pick up the pieces I lost of myself if I only could
Why can’t I see that all the love left in my heart
Is always revealing at the worst times with open arms?
Keep it in, bottle up,
all the feelings I end up blaming myself about
Like the mess in the family name,
We all inherited this
Take away all the fear
from the entropy and uncertainty
It’s become so clear, When our time is up
we’re all gonna disappear
I will carry on with an injured soul
to spark a flame and ignite the love
Patiently I’m waiting, but I know now
this is the last chance to do this now
The last chance to do this now
The verse "Can't even buy a coffee without exploiting someone" got me. It really hits hard. For the entire length of the album it felt like the end of the world.
But to be perfectly honest, it's just how life is these days. And it's fucked up. szczur
