This new work by Bad Omens explores heaviness in a different way compared to their previous releases, something we had already seen glimpses of in “Specter.” The song feels like an open diary from Noah, directly reflecting his inner struggles. The lyrics speak about feeling like a fraud, being trapp...
[Verse 1]
I'm losing my leverage, all of the evidence
That I'm not just a fraud
Too deep in my head again, won't let nobody in
No matter how hard they knock
[Pre-Chorus]
And their echoes sit alone in a prison made of bone
Oh, I hate it, but it's home for me
In every place I'm on my toes, and still I feel like I impose
It's okay to let me go if you need
[Chorus]
What's it say about me if I run away
Without you when I fall asleep
And in your head I'm always gonna stay?
What's it say about me if I never change
And I push everyone away
On borrowed time you know I can't repay?
[Verse 2]
I tried to settle in a life of relevance
But I long to be lost
And I tried to sever it, walked to the precipice
To the sound of applause
[Pre-Chorus]
And their echoes sit alone in a prison made of bone
Oh, I hate it, but it's home for me
In every place I'm on my toes, and still I feel like I impose
It's okay to let me go if you need
[Chorus]
What's it say about me if I run away
Without you when I fall asleep
And in your head I'm always gonna stay?
What's it say about me if I never change
And I push everyone away
On borrowed time you know I can't repay?
[Post-Chorus]
And their echoes sit alone in a prison made of bone
In every place I'm on my toes, and still I feel like I impose
[Outro]
I impose (I impose, I impose)
I impose (I impose, I impose)
I impose (I impose, I impose)
I impose (I impose, I impose)
I impose (I impose, I impose)
I impose (I impose, I impose)
I impose (I impose, I impose)
I impose (I impose, I impose)
