Sometimes
Cub Sport Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm sick of all of my clothes
I'm getting tired of the same conversations
I can't accept the feelings of elation
I'm flying high but am I self sabotaging
I'm leaning further in than ever
Let you in but now I need to be guarded
Sometimes I feel like my heart has been split open
You see everything I'm hoping
I'm a river running high
Sometimes I feel like there's a freeway running down my neck
There's traffic passing through my chest and through my mind
Sometimes I feel like my heart has been split open
You see everything I'm hoping
I'm a river running high
Sometimes I feel like there's traffic
Passing through my chest and through my mind
I'm burning faster than ever
I'm burning out to my ends
I'm running out of time to spend with my friends
And when I do it's with eyes wide
Building and breaking my pride
I'm getting big in my bubble
Losing perspective, think I could be in trouble
Everyday's a revelation
Everyday's a revelation
I'm learning things about myself
Sometimes I feel like my heart has been split open
You see everything I'm hoping
I'm a river running high
Sometimes I feel like there's a freeway running down my neck
There's traffic passing through my chest and through my mind
Sometimes I feel like my heart has been split open
You see everything I'm hoping
I'm a river running high
Sometimes I feel like there's a freeway running down my neck
There's traffic passing through my chest and through my mind

Even the highs feel like lows
My successes don't bring me joy anymore
I'm sick of all of my clothes
I'm bored of my life and routine
I'm getting tired of the same conversations
I'm tired of shallow small talk with people
I can't accept the feelings of elation
I'm scared to feel happy because it might not last
I'm flying high but am I self sabotaging
Maybe I don't want to be successful
I'm leaning further in than ever
I'm taking risks and pushing my limits
Let you in but now I need to be guarded
I opened up to someone but got hurt
Every day's a revelation
Every day I learn something new about myself
Sometimes I feel like my heart has been split open
I feel vulnerable and exposed
You see everything I'm hoping
You know my deepest desires
I'm a river running high
I have intense emotions
Sometimes I feel like there's a freeway running down my neck
I feel stressed and overwhelmed
There's traffic passing through my chest and through my mind
My thoughts and feelings are chaotic
I'm burning faster than ever
I'm pushing myself to the limit
I'm burning out to my ends
I'm exhausted and in danger of collapsing
I'm running out of time to spend with my friends
I feel like I'm missing out on social connections
And when I do it's with eyes wide
I'm fully present in the moment
Building and breaking my pride
I'm learning humility and vulnerability
I'm getting big in my bubble
I'm becoming too self-absorbed
Losing perspective, think I could be in trouble
I'm worried that my focus is too narrow
