Thoughtless Jolly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Because i dreamed you were
Drowning and screaming for me.
I'm not what you want me to be,
Should i be sorry for that?
I pulled you out of the blue when I saved you,
But you asked to go back to the sea.
You said you'd hide in the
And its okay to be so afriad, its okay.
I thought of the perfect thing to say
But my tongues broken loose from my head.
Its a shame cause it would of fixed everything,
Thats what I'd like to believe.
And its okay.
I hope you feel better soon,
I hope you do.
Then we can go outside again.
You won't have to be so afraid of me.
And I can pretend that I won't
Blame myself for this anymore.
I hope you feel better soon,
Hope you do.
You can learn to love again soon.
I know you feel like hiding now.
I wish that I could hide with you.
These lyrics depict a complex relationship between two people where one is struggling to meet the expectations of the other. The opening line, "I drank the ocean in my sleep, because I dreamed you were drowning and screaming for me" demonstrates the intense feelings of being responsible for the other person's well-being. The following line, "I'm not what you want me to be, should I be sorry for that?" highlights the feeling of being burdened with unrealistic expectations that are put on a person in a relationship.
The next few lines describe how the singer pulled the other person out of trouble but the person wanted to go back to the "sea," which may represent the sense of freedom and independence that the person wants to have. The singer acknowledges the fear that the other person has, and emphasizes that it is okay to be afraid sometimes. The singer also mentions that they thought of the perfect thing to say to fix everything, but unfortunately, their tongue has "broken loose from my head," perhaps representing their inability to articulate their thoughts and feelings effectively.
In the latter half of the song, the singer expresses their hope that the other person will feel better soon, and they can go outside together again. They also acknowledge the guilt that they feel for the problems in the relationship. The final lines offer some hope as the singer encourages the other person to learn to love again and wishes to hide alongside them.

Realized I can never win
Sometimes I feel like I have failed
Inside where do I begin
My mind is laughing at me
Tell me why am I to blame
Aren't we suppose to be the same
That's why I will never tame
This thing that's burning in me
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me
Sometimes I can never tell
If I've got something after me
That's why I just beg and plead
For this curse to leave me
Tell me why am I to blame
Aren't we suppose to be the same
That's why I will never tame
This thing that's burning in me
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me
Betrayed
I feel so enslaved
I really Tried
I did my time [x5]
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me
Oh God, the anger's changing me [x2]

Realize that I can never win
Sometimes I feel like I have failed
Inside where do I begin
My mind is laughing at me
Tell me why am I to blame on me
Are we supposed to be the same, that's why
I will never change this thing that's burning in me
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me
Sometimes I can never tell
If I got something that remains
That's why I just hang in grief
Or this I just let me be
Tell me why am I to blame on me
Are we supposed to be the same, that's why
I will never change this thing that's burning in me
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me
Betrayed
I feel so insane
I really tried
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I did my time
I am the one who chose my path
I am the one who couldn't last
I feel the life pulled from me
I feel the anger changing me
Oh god the anger changing me
Oh god the anger changing me
