A.D.D.
Nora Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wonder how much is to much,
What will it take to bring me to my knees?
I wonder how much is to much,
What will it take to bring me on my knees?
I'm trying so hard, as the days get longer
And my eyes are dragged to the floor.
As the day get longer my eyes are dragged down,
Through this eternal..
I walk alone.
I've traveled thousands of miles in my mind,
Just to watch it all crumble down.
We spend our lives,
Our lives learning things no one ever showed us.
We spend our lives learning things...
We spend our time, our time learning,
We spend our time leaning things your way.
No one ever showed us what to do,
No one ever showed us what to do,




No one ever showed us what to do.
Fuck you, I'll do it alone.

Line by Line Meaning

I wonder how much is to much,
Questioning the limits of endurance


What will it take to bring me to my knees?
Wondering about the breaking point


As the days get longer
Time seems to drag on


And my eyes are dragged to the floor.
Feeling helpless and defeated


Through this eternal..
Feeling stuck in an endless cycle


I walk alone.
Feeling isolated


I've traveled thousands of miles in my mind,
Mentally exhausted from constant thinking


Just to watch it all crumble down.
Seeing all efforts go to waste


We spend our lives learning things no one ever showed us.
Struggling with lack of guidance


No one ever showed us what to do,
Feeling lost without direction


Fuck you, I'll do it alone.
Determined to overcome obstacles independently
