Good Morning
Greg & Steve Vol. 2 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm an alien when I'm myself
I'm a healer, I'm a fixer
I'm a present danger to my health
I'm so strong
Doing what I'm supposed to do
There's something wrong
I've been here before, the warning
It opens up the door
And now I'm falling
Why did I let it go?
Why did I leave myself?
No explanation as to why I'm here and
Not somewhere else
It's reaping what I sow
I think I need some help
I wanna let you in and I'll begin
One for science
One for Krishna
One for luck and one more for the road
I've been trying to find an answer
That I'm certain I will never know
I won't depend on something supernatural
I won't pretend that it's gotta be right for me
I've been here before, the warning
It opens up the door
And now I'm falling
Why did I let it go?
Why did I leave myself?
No explanation as to why I'm here and
Not somewhere else
It's reaping what I sow
I think I need some help
I wanna let you in
Think I already know
It's out of my control
Found no solution but to let the pieces fall where they fall
Even with nothing left, I've got more than you know
I wanna let you in and we'll begin
I over simplify this all the time
Somehow I think that I'm alone
I wake up every day and change my mind
Good morning
I've been here before, the warning
It opens up the door
And now I'm falling
Why did I let it go?
Why did I leave myself?
No explanation as to why I'm here and
Not somewhere else
It's reaping what I sow
I think I need some help
I wanna let you in
Think I already know
It's out of my control
Found no solution but to let the pieces fall where they fall
Even with nothing left, I've got more than you know
I wanna let you in and we'll begin
The lyrics for "Good Morning" from Greg & Steve Vol. 2 are quite introspective and depict a person who is struggling to understand themselves and their place in the world. The opening lines "I'm a sinner, I'm the victim / I'm an alien when I'm myself" suggest that this person feels lost and disconnected from others, perhaps due to their own flaws and mistakes. However, the following lines "I'm a healer, I'm a fixer / I'm a present danger to my health" show that this person is also capable of doing good and helping others, but at the same time they are causing harm to themselves in the process. This internal conflict is a recurring theme throughout the song.
The chorus "Why did I let it go? / Why did I leave myself?" emphasizes the idea that this person has lost themselves in their quest to understand the world and everyone in it. They are questioning their own decisions and motivations, and are in need of help in order to find their way back to themselves. The lines "I won't depend on something supernatural / I won't pretend that it's gotta be right for me" suggest that this person is looking for a practical solution to their problems, rather than relying on something mystical or outside of themselves.
The final lines of the song "I over simplify this all the time / Somehow I think that I'm alone / I wake up every day and change my mind / Good morning" show that this person is constantly trying to make sense of their life and their surroundings, but often ends up feeling isolated and uncertain. However, despite the difficulties they face, they are optimistic and ready to start each morning anew.
