Space and Time
You And What Army Lyrics

All alone!
Feeling isolated with no one around.

And nothing is sacred
Nothing seems to hold value or importance.

Forced to pretend like you're satiated
Putting on a facade of being content even when you are not.

When everything you express is a fake
Feeling like everything you present to others is inauthentic.

You regress to a state where you're never elated
Slipping back into a negative state of mind where happiness seems impossible.

Nothing's left!
Feeling like you have lost everything or that there is nothing left to hold onto.

They've taken it all
Believing that others have taken what was important to you.

Like the door to salvation was just another wall
Feeling like the opportunity to improve your situation was hindered or blocked.

Trapped in a world that's a dying frame
Feeling stuck in a world that is falling apart and losing its vibrancy and meaning.

Another crying shame that there's no tears left for
Feeling like something is unjust, but also feeling emotionally depleted and unable to express those feelings.

My advice? Get off and RUN!
Encouraging action and movement away from the negative situation.

'til your lungs scream out and your body is numb
Encouraging pushing oneself physically and emotionally to escape the situation.

this determination cannot wear through
Believing that one's resolution will not weaken.

they don't need you and you sure as hell don't need THEM!
Realizing that there is no need to rely on those who do not value or support you.

And when you reach the end
Referring to the end of the struggle or difficult time in one's life.

Everyone there is someone you can depend on
Expressing the idea that there is support and assistance available.

And there is a place where you live your dreams
Believing that there is a future where goals and aspirations can be achieved.

Now shake this world by the seams and scream out with me:
Encouraging taking action and making a statement to the world.

I AM NOT ANOTHER WASTE OF SPACE AND TIME!
Asserting one's worth and determination.

I will take control
Deciding to take charge of one's life and actions.

This life, this life, this life, this life is mine
Affirming ownership and control over one's own existence.

and nothing in the world can stop me
Believing that nothing external can hinder one's determination and success.

I'm too far gone for anything to shock me
Feeling desensitized to negative events or circumstances, and believing they will not deter you.

There's nothing left that you can say or do
Believing that others cannot affect your situation or mindset.

I can't wait for you to decide that I'm worth your time
Refusing to wait for others' validation or recognition, and choosing to assert one's worth on their own terms.

TIME MOVES BACK!
Feeling like time is reversing or standing still, overwhelming the present.

And look where you landed
Noticing where one has ended up in life or in a particular situation.

the sands of the earth of the planet you're handed
Referencing the environment or circumstances that one is in, and feeling small and insignificant.

and every step on the way that you take
Acknowledging that every decision and action has consequences.

is a fatal mistake to the way that you planned it
Feeling like everything done has only made things worse or harder.

REALISE you will NEVER be tested
Coming to the realization that life will always present challenges and difficulties.

your life your rules; you'd never have guessed it
Realizing that there is potential for agency and control over one's own life, even in difficult situations.

If this is a world where no-one can trust, then
Expressing the idea that the world is untrustworthy and unsafe.

everyone must have at some point confessed it
Believing that everyone has felt this way at some point, and that it is a universal struggle.

NO REGRETS
Choosing to live without looking back or dwelling on past mistakes.

'cause nothing deserves it
Believing that regret is not worth the energy or time spent on it.

Nothing is ventured or gained to deserve it
Feeling like there is no reward for regrets or dwelling on past mistakes.

Nothing so far has gone as I planned,
Acknowledging that things have not worked out as hoped or planned in the past.

I took my life for granted
Realizing that opportunities and blessings in life may have been overlooked or underappreciated.

But won't make that mistake again
Committing to learn from past experiences and not take life for granted in the future.

Not another, not another, not another, not another waste of life.
Affirming the value of one's own life and refuting the idea that it is a waste.
