Stuck In My Id
Reptar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

So I've now discovered something lying dormant in my brain
I will never let it go, yeah I will never be the same
I'm in the middle of a bottomless id
Gonna make it with another and another and again
There's no hope, no future, no more of these ties to you

[Chorus]
And when I wake up in the morning
My breakfast laid out on my bed
Some kind of memory without you, girl
She lives and spins inside my head

Yeah, I been missing lying with you
There's nothing keeping me alone
I spend a long time with my body, girl
I look for meaning on my own

I never meant to hurt you, yeah
No, I never meant to blame
Did you have a reason, darling
Or was it just the shame?

I know you been so mad at me
But I swear I'm gonna fix it, gonna make it be the same
'Cause there's one hope, one thing I know is true
I would drop all of my lovers just to kick it off with you, yeah

[Chorus]

And when I wake up in the morning
My breakfast laid out on my bed
Some kind of memory without you, love
She lives and spins inside my head

Yeah, I been missing hanging with you
There's nothing keeping me alone




I spend a long time with my body, girl
I look for meaning on my own

Just rediscovered these guys. I knew this and Houseboat Babies but I just listened to their first album and was blown away. What an amazing band. So funky and unique sounding! And that drummer man. Wow! He sets the groove man and is so precise! The whole band too and the singer sounds like no one else. How were they not bigger?!
