Jaded
Yitaku Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thoughts in my head
Nothing to do while I lie in this bed
There′s so many things I'd do
Stuck in the static
Oh why won′t you move?
Want something more
I can't let my dreams fall through
I'm tired of these faces
I′m sick of these places
I want to escape it
Yeah, I want to escape it
I′m jaded, and I hate it
Will I make it?
I can almost taste it
I'm jaded, and I hate it
Will I make it?
I can almost taste it
I′m jaded, and I hate it
Will I make it?
I can almost taste it
I'm jaded, and I hate it
Will I make it?
I can almost taste it
In Yitaku's song "Jaded," the lyrics paint a picture of someone who is feeling stuck in their current situation. They are lying in bed, with thoughts racing through their head and a feeling of restlessness and dissatisfaction with their life. They want to escape the monotony of their days, the same old faces and places, and pursue something more for themselves.
The use of the word "static" in the lyrics gives the impression that the singer feels trapped and unable to move forward, as if they are listening to a radio that is stuck on a single station. They are longing for something new and exciting that will break them out of their current state of mind. They are tired of feeling jaded, but they still hold onto hope that they will make it out of this feeling.
Overall, the lyrics to "Jaded" speak to the universal human experience of feeling stuck in a rut and searching for something more in life. The despair and longing in the lyrics are relatable, and the chorus of "Jaded, and I hate it/ Will I make it?/ I can almost taste it" conveys a sense of determination and hopefulness that despite feeling jaded, the singer believes that they can move past it and pursue their dreams.
