Inside My Head
Caitlyn Scarlett Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And then I'll add a little weight into my cheeks
Give another little shove babe
And then I'll throw a little attention into the mix
I look away
You look around
The conversations in the ground
It's clear to me
The way I think
The way I am
Does it scare you darling?
Have you been here before?
Can you keep on trying?
Put the pedal to the floor
Oh good! Woman
You take me for a drive
I'm so stoned out
You try and look alive
Tell me you'll love me to death
The one who rises to our bed
You ain't seen nothing yet,
Take a look inside my head
I see you're craving the connection
I see the desperation creep across your face
I feel the element of rejection in your eyes
You reslize you can't rely on time and space
I look away
You look around
The conversations in the ground
It's clear to me
You don't understand
The way I think
The way I am
Does it scare you darling
Have been here before
Can you keep on trying
Put the pedal to the floor
Oh good
woman
you take me for a drive
I'm so, stoned out
You try and look alive
Tell me you'll love me to death
The one who rises to our bed
You ain't seen nothing yet,
Take a look inside my head
Oh good, moment
you take me for a drive
I'm so, stoned out
You try and look alive
Good God, what have I done
Scared off another one
Looks like I'll be
alone tonight
That's life
inside my mind
The song "Inside My Head" by Caitlyn Scarlett is about the struggles of communication and connection between two people with different ways of thinking and feeling. The singer wants the other person to understand their perspective and struggles, but feels misunderstood and disconnected. The lyrics "Give another little push babe / And then I'll add a little weight into my cheeks / Give another little shove babe / And then I'll throw a little attention into the mix" show that the singer is willing to try to meet the other person halfway in order to connect, but feels that it may not be enough.
The singer asks the other person if their differences scare them and if they are willing to keep trying to understand each other. The line "I'm so stoned out / You try and look alive" can be interpreted as the singer feeling disconnected and the other person trying to engage with them despite their emotional distance. The repeated lines "Oh good, woman / You take me for a drive" can be seen as a metaphor for the other person trying to take control of the situation and help the singer connect.
However, the singer ultimately feels that they are unable to connect with the other person and ends up alone. The line "Good God, what have I done / Scared off another one / Looks like I'll be alone tonight / That's life inside my mind" shows that the singer feels doomed to repeat the same patterns of miscommunication and loneliness.
Overall, the song conveys a sense of frustration and longing for connection, while acknowledging that some differences may be too deep to bridge.
