Sick People
Breakdown Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
in a world disintegrating around me
people tell me this, doing that
back biting, two faces is all i see
kicking, grabbing, fighting to get out
my only release, is when i get smashed
i've gotta rid myself of liars and cheaters
have to protect everything in order to get out
people sneaking around
i know they're out to get me
on one's on my side, at least not anymore
back biting, two faces is all i see
kicking, grabbing, fighting to get out
my only release, is when i get smashed
i've gotta rid myself of liars and cheaters
and anyone in my way is gonna get bashed
The lyrics of Breakdown's song "Sick People" describe the frustration, anger, and paranoia felt by the singer in a world full of deceitful people. The world is disintegrating around them, and they feel like they're grasping at anything to hold themselves up. The people around them are constantly telling them what to do and how to act, and they're surrounded by backbiting and two-faced behavior. Because of this, the singer is always kicking, grabbing, and fighting to get out. In fact, their only release is when they get smashed, suggesting that they're turning to alcohol or other substances as a coping mechanism.
The singer feels like they need to rid themselves of all the liars and cheaters in their life, and anyone in their way is at risk of getting bashed. They need to protect themselves in order to get out of this toxic environment, but they believe that people are sneaking around and trying to get them. They feel like no one is on their side anymore, and all they can see are the backbiting and two-faced behavior of the people around them.
