Swing In C
Chase Long Beach Lyrics

And I see now... things are never gonna go my way
Realization that life is unpredictable and outcomes may not always be in one's favour.

Do you see how... things are never gonna be the same
Acknowledgement of the fact that changes are constant and things never remain static.

Can't deny it... when everything is just not fair
Acceptance of unfair circumstances which cannot be fought against.

Wanna fight it... pretending that I do not care
Desire to resist and overcome the unfairness, while masking the true emotions.

It's true what they say how you want it, have to have it and it won't go away
Affirmation of the intensity of desire for something that cannot be ignored or dismissed easily.

You feel a change. Feel it comin', comin' strong, but it doesn't stay
Sensing a change that is powerful and impactful, but fleeting in nature and cannot be held onto.

There's something right about the way you move
Positive vibe and admiration for the way someone moves or acts.

I gotta have you right now
Urgent desire and need to possess or be with someone immediately.

It's on tonight but I got a bad feelin'
Expectation of an eventful night with a sense of impending negative outcome.

I can't deny it, when everything's so unfair
Admittance of the difficulty in accepting how unjust and unwarranted some situations can be.

I wanna fight it... this lump in my throat, my knuckles go white, I'm gasping for air
Resolve to resist and combat the unfairness, but experiencing intense emotional turmoil and physical tension.

But I'll have you know, I don't care
Standing firm in one's beliefs or desires, regardless of the consequences.

And so it goes, another heartache, some tragic mistake
Acceptance of recurring emotional pain and self-destructive behavior.

Played out in the life of a fool, such a fool
Realization of one's own foolishness in repeatedly making the same mistakes and causing harm to oneself.

And I wish I would die, but I'll play cool and say I don't care (you swear you don't care)
Experience of intense emotional pain and struggle, but outwardly trying to appear unaffected and detached.

I'll give it one more try but I got a bad feelin'
Committing to making an effort to change, despite having reservations and doubts about the outcome.

I dare you to tell me that I'm wasting my time
Bold challenge to anyone who questions or doubts one's goals or actions.

What if I am? Well I don't care
Unwavering determination to pursue one's desires, regardless of any criticism or doubts.
