I go through phases

They're invisible

The dark side of the moon

But at sundown, my eyes play tricks on me.

Confessions spill out like a stream.

Then, I remember, I'm still sitting in my room.

I'm finished, standing and breathing

And gasping

Wondering where all my friends went

An eternal hide-and-seek.

Sometimes it's draining

Obeying

And lost in conveying

Emotions that are overrated

Maybe I'm just escalating

Losing my mind in mental anguish.

The norm is waiting,

To eat your brain and,

Create a better version of yourself.

No way

No how

But, I'm not a monster

Just a dark cloud.

Striking myself like metal

It really sucks

Stuck on a coaster

With no trust

Cause I never claimed to be

Some hero.

I wait til words are enough

In my mind, a speech erupts,

Instead, I sit, eating paper phrases.

In stages.

I'll never explain them.

You'll just hate 'em

Call me names and blame it

On alcohol

And protocol

No hard feelings

Too late to save this great depression

I'm walking down the alley of

Self-deprecating,

I'll send you a postcard.

Sometimes it's draining

Obeying

And lost in conveying

Emotions that are overrated

Maybe I'm just escalating

Losing my mind in mental anguish.

The norm is waiting,

To eat your brain and,

Create a better version of yourself.

No way

No how

But, I'm not a monster

Just a dark cloud.

Striking myself like metal

It really sucks

Stuck on a coaster

With no trust

Cause I never claimed to be

Some hero.

Where did my sword go?

Where did confidence die?

I think I must find it.

My bedroom likes to cry and

Fills up like a bath

I swim in it and bask

In waves of problems, I caused.

Where's my Oscar for that?

Where did my sword go?

Where did confidence die?

I think I must find it.

My bedroom likes to cry and

Fills up like a bath

I swim in it and bask

In waves of problems, I caused.

Where's my Oscar for that?

When I'm in my world,

Teeth smile on my ceiling

No one can hear my screams

They're stuck inside of me.

No way

No how

But, I'm not a monster

Just a dark cloud.

Striking myself like metal

It really sucks

Stuck on a coaster

With no trust

Cause I never claimed to be

Some hero.

No way.

No how.

I'm not a monster.

Only a miserable cloud

But I'm such a good actress,

Look at this smile,

My mind reaches different heights than you,

But I never claimed to be God.

Electrocution is just so fun

My coaster's never done.

No trust,

Not allowed.

Cause I will never be a hero.

I'm my own person, not a hero.

I'm definitely no hero. 

Let me know what you think. What do the lyrics mean to you?
