I'm Frustrated
Mustasch Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And here´s where everything must end
So frustrated
And you thought you knew me well
I´m not crazy
Screaming and shouting, that won´t help
´Cause I´m frustrated
Please forgive me for what I said
I am absent-minded, I don´t know what I do
Where are my keys, where did I put that bloody phone
I even don´t know how to find myself
I won´t get no relief until I´m dead
I´m frustrated
I am tormented by myself
And I hate it
Why can´t I be like everybody else
I´m frustrated
This is where everything must end
Light a candle for me, these patterns I must break
I must be strong instead of run away
I won´t get my relief until I´m dead
I won´t get no relief until I´m dead
This restlessness has made me to concede
What is wrong with me, why can´t I fall asleep
I won´t get no relief until I´m dead
I´ll get my inner peace when I´m dead
The song "I'm Frustrated" by Mustasch depicts an individual who is extremely agitated and frustrated with themselves. The persona in the song is plagued by absent-mindedness and is unable to perform simple tasks such as keeping track of their keys or phone. They express their discontent with their inability to be like "everyone else" and hate themselves for it. The feelings of frustration and torment have reached a boiling point, and the persona admits that this is where "everything must end."
Despite being aware of their behavior, the persona in the song cannot seem to control themselves or find inner peace. They request forgiveness for anything hurtful they may have said in the heat of the moment, knowing that screaming and shouting won't help their situation. The persona believes that their restlessness has led them to concede and accept their inability to find relief until they are dead. The lyrics suggest that this is a sort of conclusion for them, as they cannot continue living in such a state any longer.
The song is heavy, and the lyrics divulge the persona's mental state in a raw and authentic manner. Many people can relate to the frustration and self-loathing that the persona expresses. The lyrics suggest that the persona wants to change and break their patterns, but they lack the strength to do so. The song's melancholic and despairing tone perfectly accompany the lyrics and express the persona's desperation.

I have absolutely loved this song since the first time I heard it. Mustasch is an ultimate riff factory and on top of that they can capture something like this.
