Headache
METZ (CA) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I can't move, I can't stand
I got gotta gotta gotta
I gotta get, I gotta get away,
I get away
Got nothing on,
Something missing the..apart
I gotta gotta gotta gotta
I gotta get away, I gotta get away
I get away,
I gotta get away
The lyrics of "Headache" by METZ (CA) paint the picture of someone experiencing an overwhelming sense of discomfort, stress or anxiety. The opening line "That even can't see breathe like for me" suggests the singer feels like they are suffocating and drowning, struggling to catch their breath. The repetition of "I can't move, I can't stand" reinforces the idea that this person is completely immobilized by their internal struggle. The urgency in the repetition of "gotta gotta gotta" emphasizes the intensity of their feelings and the need to escape from the situation they find themselves in.
The second verse continues the sense of distress with the line "Got nothing on, something missing the..apart", suggesting that the singer feels empty or incomplete, like a puzzle piece that doesn't fit. The repetition of "I gotta get away" is an emotional plea for release, for escape from whatever is causing this pain. The song is essentially a cathartic release of emotion, a cry for help from someone experiencing an overwhelming sense of internal turmoil.
