Hypochondriac
Papa Sleep Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ears ringing someone better pick it up
Eyes bleeding someone better drain it out
Ears ringing someone better pick it up
Eyes bleeding someone better drain it out
Really bugging I been eating cigarette butts off the ground
Homies tweaking mama say dont hang around with that crowd
Ever since I was a child obsessing over every kind of crime rate
I been tryna get my buddies on the front page
Run a marathon through my last brain waves
Pair of legs in a deep grave
Skydiving down the rabbit hole
Lost my marbles I dont think I'm ever coming home
I cant lie
I been cheating on your corpse
I can try
Spread my feet across the doorway
Cant remember past the old days
Fingertips are frosted
Tryna pack it up and leave but I'm so exhausted
Ears ringing someone better pick it up
Eyes bleeding someone better drain it out
Ears ringing someone better pick it up
Eyes bleeding someone better drain it out
I cant leave this place if I wanted to
Erase the thought of you piecing all your guts together
Tell me what you want
Let's just make it better
Haunted by your words I cant face the void
Dig my fingers in the dirt and push until it's all destroyed
Cant come back to life until I'm levelheaded tell me you're the one I should avoid
Ears ringing someone better pick it up
Eyes bleeding someone better drain it out
Ears ringing someone better pick it up




Eyes bleeding someone better drain it out
I'm a hypochondriac

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Papa Sleep's song "Hypochondriac" delve into the mental and emotional turmoil of the singer. The repetitive lines "Ears ringing someone better pick it up, Eyes bleeding someone better drain it out" serve as a metaphor for the overwhelming anxiety and distress the singer is experiencing. It's as if they are pleading for someone to help alleviate their suffering, both physically and mentally.


The following lines reveal self-destructive behavior and a deep sense of dissatisfaction with life. The singer admits to eating cigarette butts off the ground, showing a lack of self-care and a disregard for their own well-being. The mention of "homies tweaking" and the caution from their mother to stay away from that crowd hints at a negative influence or a sense of being trapped in a toxic environment.


The lyrics also convey a sense of obsession with crime and a desire to gain attention or notoriety. The reference to wanting to see their "buddies on the front page" and the idea of running a marathon through their last brain waves suggests a desperate need for recognition or validation. The mention of a "pair of legs in a deep grave" and skydiving down the rabbit hole symbolize a descent into darkness and losing touch with reality.


The lines "I been cheating on your corpse, I can try, Spread my feet across the doorway" portray a sense of guilt, perhaps for betraying someone or something important to them. The mention of being unable to remember past the old days and feeling exhausted highlight a sense of being stuck, both mentally and emotionally. The repetition of "Ears ringing someone better pick it up, Eyes bleeding someone better drain it out" throughout the song reinforces the overwhelming distress and the desperate plea for help.


Overall, "Hypochondriac" reflects the inner turmoil of someone grappling with anxiety, self-destructive behavior, and a constant yearning for escape.
