Goot Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am another wasted mind and soul
I am another waste of thought in space and time
But on the brighter side my problems seem to rhyme
I'll say what i mean
This lonely life of i and me is all i need
Some things things will come and go
This lonely life of me and i
that's just fine
Some things just come and go
As i take a look at my life right now
I'm surprised to find I've got no friends to let me down
You could read it on my face just an hour ago
It was just another missed chance here to get up and go
I let myself down again
I'll say what i mean
This lonely life of i and me is all i need
Some things things will come and go
I'll take this ride
This lonely life of me and I
That's just fine
Some things just come and go
I remember every choice I've made
and I don't regret them
I remember every day i waste
and I don't regret them
I'll say what i mean
this lonely life of i and me is all i need
Some things things will come and go
I'll take this ride
This lonely life of me and i
That's just fine
Some things just come and go
The opening lines of Goot's Self Portrait, "Hey, hello / I am another wasted mind and soul / I am another waste of thought in space and time," introduce the theme of self-deprecation and the feeling of being lost or unsure of one's place in the world. The singer is reflecting on their own existence and they feel like their own mind and soul are wasted. They feel like they are just a waste of space and time. However, they see a glimmer of hope, acknowledging that "on the brighter side my problems seem to rhyme." This suggests that the singer finds solace in the consistency of their issues and finds comfort in being able to put them into words.
As the song progresses, the singer reveals that they often feel lonely and isolated, saying, "I'm surprised to find I've got no friends to let me down / You could read it on my face just an hour ago." The repetition of the phrase "lonely life of me and I" reinforces the isolation they feel in their personal life. Yet, despite this, they seem to accept their situation, saying, "Some things just come and go."
The final lines of the song, "I remember every choice I've made / and I don't regret them / I remember every day I waste / and I don't regret them," take a turn towards introspection and self-acceptance. The singer seems to have come to terms with their flaws and decisions, understanding that those experiences have made them who they are today.
Overall, Self Portrait is an introspective and honest song that explores the complex emotions of isolation, loneliness, hopelessness, and self-acceptance.

Hey, hello
Greetings
I am another wasted mind and soul
I feel as though my mind and soul have gone to waste
I am another waste of thought in space and time
I feel as though I am not worth the time and effort
But on the brighter side my problems seem to rhyme
Although I have problems, at least they seem to make sense together
This lonely life of i and me is all i need
I prefer my own company and don't need others to make me happy
Some things things will come and go
Not everything stays the same forever
I'll take this ride
I'll go through this journey of life
that's just fine
It's okay
As i take a look at my life right now
Reflecting on my current life
I'm surprised to find I've got no friends to let me down
I thought I had friends but they are not trustworthy
You could read it on my face just an hour ago
It was quite evident from my facial expression one hour ago
It was just another missed chance here to get up and go
It was another opportunity I missed to make something of myself
I let myself down again
I am disappointed in myself
I remember every choice I've made
I recall every decision I have ever made
and I don't regret them
I stand by my decisions and do not regret them
I remember every day i waste
I recall every day I have squandered
I'll say what i mean
I will speak my truth
Some things just come and go
Not everything in life stays forever

Maybe he writes songs like I write poems: just write the feeling down, even if things are actually going great for you. Either way, this song is great.
