Story behind the song
New concept - Being forced to revisit a horrible past in present time.
Lyrics
Verse I
I wake up falling out the bed
bled out my eyes they were filled with regret
my stomach comes next
but that feeling's un-natural
I could have a laugh or two but my attitude
just won't let me
reloading clips in my mind, I revise
'cause I can't see you in my head one more time
and when you are I just wanna know why
so here I go thinking ima just relax some
but then my head forcing me to start relapsing
that the night before stretched out an arm for a hug
I looked at him funny, all I see is blood
and I'm holding a dove inside of my hands as a symbol
hoping that tomorrow for me is smooth and gentle
I do see yesterday inside today from what I been thru
but the search to remember isn't safe for my mental
Hook
Did the same thing happen yesterday
I see the same things happen day after day
Did it fly past did I dream it all away
the future walked by but he didnt even wave (not at me)
Verse II
I wake up falling out the bed... again? again. Okay look
I wake up falling out the bed
sped through the process to what was unsaid
his name Complex, his gesture upsets me
not a gentleman, nope not how he left me
he laid the truth out on a table to spoil
I covered it cool without aluminum foil
Everyday... I could see the truth eat me
honestly, I wish that I could eat the truth
and not vomit, bleed, or secrete tears that interefere
with my eyes valley
all I see is Grey, now Im thinkin like O'Malley
the strength of Jasmine- I really hated the fragrance
save face, I can't say where insane went
Yesterday's coming soon, I'm a frequent member
can't give up my card, I'm on a search to remember
Hook
Verse III
I wake up falling out the bed, caught my fall
life is in my own hands, my face in awe
my bedroom revolved and all around me
I must be that axis - an unseen boundary
Cracked mirror, tryna find the pieces of me
in broken shards, not the place where I needed to be
the lady on the other side decided to leave me
with no identity so I believe that
if the same thing....
[Version 2 - extended ending]
Hook
If the same thing happened yesterday
why would I look for the very next day
will it fly past will I dream it all away
the future walks by but he just dont change
(repeat)
