I personally think this song is about depression
“I know I hurt you, I was so unkind
I was ungrateful, I wasted your time
But I was young and lost, so lost
See, you took this poor boy and changed his whole life
Granted his wishes and dreams overnight
And I saw stars, they shot me down
But I deserved it, they knocked me out”
I think this means that he was ignorant and ignored people,
and he was ungrateful and feels like he has wasted people’s time.
However, back then he was younger and confused,
and he felt lost, but this person ( not sure who) took him
and showed him amazing things and helped him,
but they “knocked him out” and he feels like he deserves it.
I’m just waking up now, in the tears of the one’s I love
It’s quiet, I’ll bet that everybody thinks I’m done
I need to get up now, I’ve been down here for too long
Two years I’ve been lost, now I remember who I was
Who I was, who I was
I’m pretty sure this is talking about
how he’s coming out of depression
and he remembers who he was before (his depression).
“I’m just waking up now” is a metaphor to him coming out of his depression,
as though he was previously dead.
All his loved ones are upset,
but they think he’s lost hope.
When it says 2 years I’ve been lost
it means he’s had depression for two years.
I am the one who beat me black and blue
No one can hurt all your feelings like you
Whoa, I know it, or validate
See, if you’re a misfit and feel out of place
Or you don’t like how you look, it’s okay
‘Cause someone will, but you need to love yourself
Don’t end up like me, don’t end up like me
This means he knows it is his fault, he beat himself,
saying he was worthless, ect.
He got himself in that position,
and “No one cant hurt all your feelings like you” is true,
if you keep telling yourself you are worthless
then you’re eventually believe it,
and if you doubt everything you say you’ll end feeling bad about yourself,
because of yourself. Next he is saying
if you’re an outsider or don’t like the way you look,
you think you’re ugly or fat,
there is always someone who will love you,
but to realise that you need to learn to love yourself the way you are.
He’s saying don’t end up like me, don’t end up suicidal.
I’m just waking up now, in the tears of the one’s I love
It’s quiet, I’ll bet that everybody thinks I’m done
I need to get up now, I’ve been down here for too long
Two years I’ve been lost, now I remember who I was
Who I was, who I was (I’ve been down here for too…)
Who I was, who I was
This is just repeating what I’ve previously said,
but I need to get up,
I’ve been down here for too long is about him being by himself for too long,
and having depression for ‘too long’,
he wants to get out of it and be himself again.
