Bitter St
Dolorous Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been riding round
With my head in the clouds
Travel speed of sound
I'll just turn the windows down
Turn the music loud
I don't wanna hear a sound
Thoughts so profound
But their quiet for now
Maybe it's a robin
Maybe it's a Dove
Put it in your pocket
Fits just like a glove
Done with all the talking
Drunk outside the club
Up just like a rocket
Looming from above
I know when you say I'll do it
But no you protect your ruin
Caught up in the thought for movement
But you don't wanna stay congruent
I know when you say I'll do it
This is just some stale music
I know when you say I'll do it
Doesn't ever really mean you could
Oh when you said goodbye
Story of my life
Woah needed your advice
Guess I'll spend some
Time alone again
I've been riding round
With my head in the clouds
Travel speed of sound
I'll just turn the windows down
Turn the music loud
I don't wanna hear a sound




Thoughts so profound
But their quiet for now

Line by Line Meaning

I've been riding round
I've been driving aimlessly


With my head in the clouds
Feeling lost and distracted


Travel speed of sound
Going fast without a clear destination


I'll just turn the windows down
Ignoring reality and distracting myself


Turn the music loud
Trying to drown out my thoughts


I don't wanna hear a sound
Avoiding any unpleasant feelings or thoughts


Thoughts so profound
Feeling deeply and intensely


But their quiet for now
Suppressing my emotions and covering them up


Maybe it's a robin
Noticing small things in nature


Maybe it's a Dove
Appreciating the simple things in life


Put it in your pocket
Take something good from life and hold onto it


Fits just like a glove
It fits me perfectly, it's exactly what I need


Done with all the talking
Tired of small talk and superficial conversations


Drunk outside the club
Feeling disillusioned with the party scene


Up just like a rocket
Feeling unstoppable and energetic


Looming from above
Feeling overwhelmed and intimidated


I know when you say I'll do it
I know you're not really committed


But no you protect your ruin
You're holding onto destructive habits


Caught up in the thought for movement
Thinking about making changes in my life


But you don't wanna stay congruent
You don't want to commit to making real changes


This is just some stale music
Feeling uninspired and uninterested in my surroundings


Doesn't ever really mean you could
You're not capable of following through on your promises


Oh when you said goodbye
Feeling the pain of a recent breakup


Story of my life
This situation is all too familiar


Woah needed your advice
Feeling lost and in need of guidance


Guess I'll spend some
Feeling resigned to my current situation


Time alone again
Withdrawn and isolated from others
