The protagonist describes feeling like a "landmine," suggesting a volatile state where suppressed emotions and unresolved issues are building up to a critical point. The imagery of "wires crossed" and "ticking like a time bomb" conveys a sense of imminent explosion, reflecting the overwhelming pressure and denial that have been bottled up over time.

Landmine
Lyrics
Under the surface (under the surface)
Wires are crossed (wires are crossed)
At any moment (at any moment)
I could go off
And I can't hold much longer
It keeps getting stronger
It's only a matter of time
I'm living like a landmine
Waiting to explode
I'm ticking like a time bomb
Ready to go
I'm a danger to myself and everybody else
I'm living like a landmine
Waiting to explode
I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go
I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go
Under the pressure (under the pressure)
I'm not okay (I'm not okay)
I live in denial (I live in denial)
I've bottled the rage
And I can't hold much longer
It keeps getting stronger
It's only a matter of time
I'm living like a landmine
Waiting to explode
I'm ticking like a time bomb
Ready to go
I'm a danger to myself and everybody else
I'm living like a landmine
Waiting to explode
I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go
I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go
I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go
And I can't hold much longer
It keeps getting stronger
It's only a matter of time
I'm living like a landmine
Waiting to explode
I'm ticking like a time bomb
Ready to go
I'm a danger to myself and everybody else
I'm living like a landmine
Waiting to explode
I'm living like a landmine
Waiting to explode
I'm ticking like a time bomb
Ready to go
I'm a danger to myself and everybody else
I'm living like a landmine
Waiting to explode
I'm ready to go (I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go)
I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go, I'm ready to go
