Explode
Unseen Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm losing my mind and my life's a mess.
Well everyone says do this and do that
Maybe they're right
I feel like I'm gonna
Explode I'm gonna explode
It is so big yet I feel so small
It's even in your shopping mall
Don't throw it away that's what they say
I don't want to go out and fail
Yet I fail at home every day
I wonder someday if I'll look back
With regrets on how I lived
Each way I turn I turn my back
Each time I turn I always look back
I'm trying to please everyone I don't know how
I feel like I'm gonna
Explode I'm gonna explode
What should I do I really don't know
Should I stay home or should I go
Well I'm struggling with my sanity
Is my life crumbling in front of me.
Oh.
Do you know how it feels?
To feel like your gonna explode
Do you ever feel
Like your gonna explode.
Explode.
