Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It ain't gonna save me, no how
It ain't gonna save me
It ain't gonna save me, no how
It ain't gonna save me
It ain't gonna save me, no how
It ain't gonna save me
It ain't gonna save me, no how
I took a walk the other day and thought about how things used to be
And then a cloud came into sky it shed on me
And I don't know why, ever since that day I've never been the same
Tired and lonely with no one to blame
And in this bedroom is where I sit cause I don't really don't give a shit
It ain't gonna save me
It ain't gonna save me, no how
It ain't gonna save me
It ain't gonna save me, no how
My negativity it takes a toll
It uses me just like a bone
It scares away the things I love
It keeps its fight and push at shows,
Ever since that night I've never been the same
Tired and lonely with no one to blame
And in this bedroom is where I sit
Cause I don't really don't give a shit
It ain't gonna save me
It ain't gonna save me, no how
It ain't gonna save me
It ain't gonna save me, no how
It ain't gonna save me
It ain't gonna save me, no how
It ain't gonna save me
It ain't gonna save me, no how
All is lost there is no hope, all is lost you can go home,
All is lost there is no hope for me.
All is lost there is no hope, all is lost you can go home,
All is lost there is no hope for me.
All is lost there is no hope, all is lost you can go home,
All is lost there is no hope for me.
All is lost there is no hope, all is lost you can go home,
All is lost there is no hope for me.

It ain't gonna save me
The situation cannot be salvaged
It ain't gonna save me, no how
Regardless of what happens, nothing can save me
I took a walk the other day and thought about how things used to be
I reminisced about the past while taking a walk
And then a cloud came into sky it shed on me
Suddenly, a cloud appeared and rained on me
And I don't know why, ever since that day I've never been the same
For some inexplicable reason, I have been different ever since that day
Tired and lonely with no one to blame
I feel exhausted and isolated, but I can't attribute it to anyone
And in this bedroom is where I sit cause I don't really don't give a shit
I am currently sitting in my room, apathetic and indifferent
My negativity it takes a toll
My pessimistic attitude is affecting me negatively
It uses me just like a bone
My negativity is taking over my life, much like how a bone is used by the body
It scares away the things I love
My negative mindset is repelling the things and people I care about
It keeps its fight and push at shows
My negativity persists and manifests even in public situations
All is lost there is no hope, all is lost you can go home,
There is no hope for me, and others can leave because there is nothing they can do
All is lost there is no hope for me.
I have no faith in my situation improving, there is no hope for me
