Cynical Lyrics

There's a cynical feeling saying I should give up
You said everything you'll ever say
There's a moment of panic when I hear the phone ring
Anxiety's calling in my head

Is it back again?
Are you back again?

Ah

Don't wake me up before you leave
Is there the slightest trace of what you once believed (whoa)
I feel your hand unlock the door
Leaving fingerprints of water in the oil (whoa)

What's the point of saying sorry now
Lost my voice while fighting my way out
(While fighting my way out)
What's the point of saying sorry now?
(Not sorry, not sorry, not sorry, I'm not sorry)
Lost my voice while fighting my way out
(Not sorry, not sorry, not sorry, I'm not sorry now)

What is the Meaning of Cynical?

In this composition, blink-182 explores themes of disillusionment and emotional turmoil. The lyrics convey a sense of resignation and frustration, manifesting through the protagonist's internal struggle with anxiety and feelings of abandonment. The phrase "cynical feeling" encapsulates a pervasive sense of hopelessness, suggesting that past experiences have led to a loss of faith in meaningful communication or resolution. The recurring question, "Is it back again?" reflects the cyclical nature of these negative emotions. The imagery of "fingerprints of water in the oil" symbolizes lingering traces of past interactions that continue to affect the present. Ultimately, the song articulates a struggle for self-expression amid adversity, as highlighted by the repeated line "Lost my voice while fighting my way out." This poignant narrative underscores the complexities inherent in coping with emotional distress and interpersonal conflict. #EmotionalStruggle #Anxiety
