In this introspective track, the artist grapples with feelings of disillusionment and stagnation. The lyrics convey a sense of self-doubt and frustration, as the singer questions his relevance and impact in an ever-changing world. The repeated phrase "I try to fix myself but nothing works" serves as a poignant metaphor for struggling with personal growth amidst societal expectations. Moreover, the song reflects on the isolation that can accompany such struggles, asking whether it's a result of being alone or simply feeling alone. This piece is also a critique on society's pressure to conform, symbolized by the disapproval towards the singer's song verses. Ultimately, it's a candid exploration of self-perception, societal norms, and the often futile quest for perfection.
Nothing Works
Lyrics
What's the point, muffin?
I don't believe in nothin' anymore
You tell me I don't relate to the kids no more
Now, I feel like I'm letting them down
What's the point runnin'?
Not like I'm up-and-comin' anymore
So what if they hear me on my bathroom floor?
I'm sure they're big enough now
But, of course, I'll re-implore you
On the kind of nation that we have
You've either been on your own too long
Or it just feels like that (it just feels like that)
So tell me if I'm stuck or movin' on up
That's a conversation to be had
Have I been livin' on my own too long
Or does it just feel like that?
When I sing the song and you didn't like the verse
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but nothing
Nothing
What's the point, Martin?
Don't you be startin' anymore
They told me I was the fat cat kid for a minute
But they're the ones who are doin' us proud
Well, what's the point runnin'?
Not like I'm up-and-comin' anymore
So what if they hear me singin' "I love war"?
I'm sure they're big enough now
But, of course, I'll re-implore you
On the kind of nation that we have
You've either been on your own too long
Or it just feels like that (it just feels like that)
So tell me if I'm stuck or movin' up
Now that's a conversation to be had
Have I been talkin' to myself all along
Or do I just sound like that?
When I sing the song and you didn't like the verse
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I feel wrong, I feel rehearsed
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing works
But, of course, I'll re-implore you
On the kind of nation that we have
You've either been on your own too long
Or it just feels like that (it just feels like that)
So, tell me am I stuck or movin' up
Now that's a conversation to be had
Have I been talkin' to myself so long
Or do I just sound like that?
When I sing the song and you didn't like the verse
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I feel wrong, I feel rehearsed
I try to fix myself but nothing works
I sing the song and you didn't like the words
I try to fix myself but
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing
