Rad or Sad
TrunkWeed Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

There must be some sort of way to make it through this phase, where nothing feels okay, and I stay up too late.
While faking my own fate and acting like I hate all the friends I've made.

cnd so it goes, I can't be here too long or everything feels wrong.
I've known it all along, there's no point to this song.

I don't know how to make my words relate to any one else out there wondering what it is that one day may become their fate.

I don't know if I can take this anymore.
cll I want is to just lie here on the floor.
There's nothing holding me together at the core.
I lie awake and wonder if there's something more.

Just like any other night, caught in a constant fight, I am losing sight of what is right.
Because of my own fright, I have lost the light, and now nothing feels alright.
It's not all right.
Nothing's ever fine.
It's just another night alone.

Run, run away from everything you came from, they don't wanna hear from you.

They don't wanna be like you.
Everyone you ever knew.
