Polaroid
Imagine Dragons Lyrics

I'm a reckless mistake
I make impulsive decisions that often lead to negative consequences

I'm a cold night's intake
I am like a cold drink consumed on a chilly night, providing temporary comfort but ultimately leading to discomfort

I'm a one night too long
I tend to overindulge, often staying in situations longer than I should

I'm a come on too strong
I often show too much enthusiasm or pressure in situations, leading to discomfort for others

All my life I've been living in the fast lane
I have a history of constantly seeking excitement and adventure without much regard for the consequences

Can't slow down
I am so used to living life at a fast pace that I have trouble slowing down or relaxing

I'm a rollin' freight train
I am like a train that can't stop, constantly moving forward at a fast pace

One more time
Despite the negative outcomes of my actions in the past, I am willing to repeat them

Gotta start all over
I often find myself in situations where I need to completely erase and restart because of my impulsive actions

I'm a hold my cards close
I am the kind of person who likes to keep my thoughts and feelings to myself for fear of judgment or vulnerability

I'm a wreck what I love most
I have a tendency to self-sabotage and ruin relationships or good things in my life

I'm a first class let down
I often disappoint others, even after they have high expectations of me

I'm a shut up sit down
I can be stubborn and resistant to change or new ideas, leading to tension in relationships

I am a head case
I struggle with emotional and psychological instability, leading to irrational behavior

I am the color of boom
I am exciting and dynamic, but also potentially dangerous

That's never arriving
I have a tendency to make big promises, but I don't always follow through or deliver on them

At you are the pay raise
Others are dependable and reliable, always delivering on their promises and providing stability

Always a touch out of view
I am always working towards something that is just out of reach, which can lead to frustration and disappointment

And I am the color of boom
I am dynamic and exciting, but also potentially dangerous

Oh
Expressing surprise or frustration

Love is a polaroid
Love is fleeting and temporary, captured in a moment but unable to provide lasting fulfillment

Better in picture
Love often looks better or more ideal in our imagination or memories than it does in reality

But never can fill the void
Despite how much love we may experience, it can never completely satisfy us or fill a void within us

I'm a midnight talker
I tend to stay up late, lost in my thoughts and possibly talking to others to avoid facing my emotions and problems

Oh I'm an alley walker
I am the kind of person who finds comfort in isolation or darker places

I'm a day late two face
I can be inconsistent or inauthentic in my interactions with others

I'm a burn out quick pace
I often experience burnout or exhaustion because of my impulsive, fast-paced lifestyle

I'm gonna get ready
I am preparing for something or anticipating change

For the rain to pour heavy
I am anticipating a tough time or something difficult to come

Oh, let it fall, fall
I am accepting and embracing that difficulty, whatever it may be

Let it fall upon my head
I am accepting that I will experience the consequences of my actions, good or bad
