Insane
Alan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't you think it's time to realize what you've become?
A frail existence, a fragile and broken heart
Can you Imagine the world without you?
Oh I do, yes I do

I'll be on the other side
I'll be on the other side for you
I'll be on the other side

I'll cut myself in half for you

Save me, before I set myself in flames for you
Kill me, before I drive myself insane for you

Sometimes we all fall apart and drink the poison
I've lost my purpose in life, and this hurts too much
So many demons I have to face
But I'm here, here to stay

Do you think I'm crazy?
Do you think I'm lost?

Is this neverending?
Where did I go wrong?

Line by Line Meaning

Don't you think it's time to realize what you've become?
Isn't it about time for you to acknowledge the person you have changed into?

A frail existence, a fragile and broken heart
I feel like I am barely holding on, with a heart that is delicate and shattered

Can you imagine the world without you?
Can you envision a reality where you are not present?

Oh I do, yes I do
Indeed, I can, without a doubt

I'll be on the other side
I'll be there for you from a different perspective

I'll be on the other side for you
I'll provide support and understanding from a different standpoint solely for your sake

I'll cut myself in half for you
I am willing to sacrifice and undergo great pain just to be there for you

Save me, before I set myself in flames for you
Rescue me, before I self-destruct in agony because of you

Kill me, before I drive myself insane for you
End my life, before I lose my sanity completely because of you

Sometimes we all fall apart and drink the poison
Occasionally, we all break down and consume the toxicity within

I've lost my purpose in life, and this hurts too much
I no longer have a sense of direction or meaning in my existence, and it is causing immense pain

So many demons I have to face
I am confronted with numerous personal demons that I must confront

But I'm here, here to stay
Despite everything, I am still present and committed

Do you think I'm crazy?
Do you believe that I have lost my sanity?

Do you think I'm lost?
Do you perceive me as being directionless or wandering aimlessly?

Is this neverending?
Is this an endless cycle with no escape?

Where did I go wrong?
At what point did I make a mistake or take the wrong path?
