Horizon
I.M X ELHAE Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am feeling higher than the horizon
Her eyes on me
Calling her everyday like a referee
I don't wanna stay awake
In this light of day
Wanting to rot away
The world spinning around
Got my head down in the ground
The pressure pulling me down
Heart pulled up and out
I just wanted to shout
I don't know why you left
But it wasn't really fair
I don't know why you left me alone there
I was so scared
Blowing clouds to clear my head
Just so I can go to bed
All the bad thoughts are coming back
Just so I can only see black
Feeling like im light headed
Just so I can be imbedded
Imbedded in my own thoughts
Having my mind tied up in knotts
My throat feeling blocked
My brain feeling locked
My nose running and stuffing
I feel like I should be huffing
This verse is about me being sick
Because I am sick, I think i have a cold




Or the sickness spreading like mold
(Covid)
