Stuck
Two Day Coma Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You're stuck in the same old place
You're stuck with the same old face
You can't shake your name
You're brushing the same old teeth
You walk down the same old street
You sing to the same old beat
It still sounds the same
As back in the day
And I wouldn't ask you
To change
You're stuck in your old ways
You can't wash away that taste
You're stuck on that unsolved case
You can't catch a break
You're losing the big race
You're stuck at the same damn pace
You're finishing in last place
You're losing again
And it still feels the same
As back in the day
And I wouldn't ask you
To change
You can doctor your diary
But you can't change the past
Oh god don't deny me
Anything that I ask
You can change up your haircut
And buy some new clothes
But you can't decide the future
Or which way the wind blows
The lyrics of Two Day Coma's song "Stuck" discuss the feeling of being trapped in a repetitive and stagnant lifestyle. The singer addresses someone who is unwilling or unable to break free from their old habits and routines. The repetition in the lyrics emphasizes the theme of being stuck in a monotonous existence.
The first verse highlights the various aspects of this person's life that have become stagnant. They are stuck in the same physical location, with the same appearance, unable to escape their identity. The second verse delves deeper into the consequences of being stuck, as this person has become trapped in unsolved problems, unable to make progress and stuck in a constant state of losing.
The chorus emphasizes that despite the passage of time, nothing has changed for this person. They are still stuck in the same patterns as "back in the day," and the singer acknowledges that they wouldn't even ask this person to change, implying a sense of resignation or acceptance of their predicament.
The bridge of the song introduces a contrasting perspective, suggesting that while this person may try to doctor their image or appearance, they cannot alter the past. The plea to not be denied anything that is asked implies a desire for honesty and openness in their relationship. The final lines of the song acknowledge that while superficial changes can be made, such as a different haircut or new clothes, they will not determine the future or the direction in which life takes them.
Overall, "Stuck" by Two Day Coma explores the theme of feeling trapped in repetitive and unchanging patterns of life, questioning the ability to break free and make a meaningful change.
