Back On My Feet
J.W Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I´m tired of feeling like I´m dead already
I want to jump and I want to dance
I want to pick her up
Take her to my bed
But there´s something wrong with me

And I can´t get a grip of it
Can´t get a grip of it

Can´t get a grip of it





Can´t get a grip of it

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, the artist, J.W, expresses a deep sense of weariness and despair that has consumed them. The opening line, "I'm tired of feeling like I'm dead already," suggests a profound emotional fatigue and numbness that has enveloped the singer's being. This feeling of being lifeless may indicate a struggle with depression, hopelessness or a general sense of disconnect from one's own emotions and experiences. The repetition of this sentiment emphasizes the weight of this burden that the singer is carrying.


Despite this overwhelming feeling of inner death, there is a yearning for vitality and joy that emerges in the following lines. The desire to "jump and... dance" conveys a longing for liberation and release from the heaviness that weighs them down. This desire for movement and freedom suggests a longing for a sense of aliveness and spontaneity that feels out of reach. The wish to "pick her up" and "take her to my bed" further reflects a desire for intimacy and closeness, possibly seeking comfort or connection in the midst of this emotional turmoil.


However, the singer acknowledges a profound internal conflict or struggle that impedes their ability to fully embrace these desires. The line "But there's something wrong with me" hints at a deep-seated issue or obstacle that stands in the way of the singer's yearning for connection, joy, and fulfillment. This admission of inner turmoil suggests a sense of powerlessness or frustration in the face of this unknown barrier that they are grappling with.


The repetition of the phrase "Can't get a grip of it" underscores the singer's inability to overcome this internal hindrance or obstacle that is preventing them from fully embracing life and its possibilities. This refrain conveys a sense of frustration, helplessness, and perhaps even desperation in the face of this seemingly insurmountable challenge. The inability to grasp or understand what is holding them back highlights the complexity and depth of the singer's emotional struggle, painting a poignant portrait of a soul grappling with inner demons and seeking a way to break free and truly come back to life.
