Low
Simplified Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Words of wisdom, bad advice
Keeping busy, said I'm thinking twice

Don't know why I keep this up, sometimes
It ain't supposed to hurt so much

But getting angry just ain't right
Uninspire me, I'll be fine

Don't know why I get so low, sometimes
Don't want to think about it anymore

Cause I'm feeling alone
I'm already stoned
There's no cure for this pain
I shouldn't complain
So damn low

Drifting along don't know what's wrong
It's hard to change while life goes on
When your feelings are as such
Moving on, life and love is tough

But getting angry just ain't right
Uninspire me, I'll be fine

Don't know why I get so low, sometimes
Don't want to think about it anymore

Cause I'm feeling alone
I'm already stoned
There's no cure for this pain
I shouldn't complain
So damn low

I see you reaching for me
Give me something I can feel
I see you reaching for me
Give me something that is real
Don't take too much to please me
I just need to believe

Cause I'm feeling alone
I'm already stoned
There's no cure for this pain
I shouldn't complain
So damn low

You've got me feeling alone
I'm already stoned
There's no cure for this pain




I shouldn't complain
So damn low
