Triggered
SkyDxddy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴I shoudn't take things so serious
I don't think they mean any harm
But it would sicken you too
If it happened to you
And you had to relive every part
Here come the flashbacks
And the panic attacks
How long does that shit last I'm losing myself by the day see
And I know you all think that I'm crazy
That the demons that show up
At the foot of my bed
Are just figments from memories
That fucked up my head
That night terrors ain't nothin
But a real bad dream
So quit being a God Damn drama queen
I seal myself in a sound proof room
So no one can hear how loud I scream
But you don't think it's as bad as it seems
Cause you've never dealt with PTSD
Frozen in your track
Take a visit to the past
To see the devils dirty deed
Leave a mark all down your back
I can't even be around cigarettes
You know how many people smoke?
Approximately one billion
And just about everybody I know
You think you know but you don't
When someone's broke you can't just heavy sigh
And roll your eyes
Like if they ain't physically ill
Then they must be a liar
But wouldn't you recede to the fire
If everything around you became a threat
And everyone surrounding you said
GET OVER IT
It becomes unbearable to live in
So listen
Triggers are relentless
They ain't gonna quit
They don't go away just cause you don't
Believe it
Reliving each nightmare on an everyday basis
I don't think I can do this
I don't think I can take this
Frozen in your tracks
Take a visit to the past
To see the devils dirty deed
Leave a mark all down your back
Frozen in your tracks
Take a visit to the past
To see the devils dirty deed
Leave a mark all down your back
You sent my mind on fire
Sparks flying I'm rewired
You left me no desire
Broken and uninspired
I feel you all conspire
Left all alone with liars
Hopeless so I get higher
And higher till I'm tired
And there's no reminder
Of what I'm crying for
Cause I can't fucking do this anymore
Frozen in your tracks
Take a visit to the past
Repay the devils dirty deed
With a gash all down his back
You set my mind on fire
Sparks flying I'm rewired
You left me no desire
Broken and uninspired
Hopeless so I get higher
And higher till I'm tired
And there is no reminder
Of what I'm crying for

I can't do this anymore
What am I even fighting for?

Line by Line Meaning

I shoudn't take things so serious
I need to lighten up and not take everything so seriously


I don't think they mean any harm
I don't believe that anyone is intentionally trying to hurt me


But it would sicken you too
But if you were in my situation, you would understand


If it happened to you
If you experienced the same trauma as I did


And you had to relive every part
And you had to constantly relive and remember every detail of that trauma


Here come the flashbacks
Now I'm experiencing intense flashbacks of that trauma


And the panic attacks
Coupled with panic attacks


How long does that shit last
How long do flashbacks and panic attacks last?


I'm losing myself by the day see
I feel like I'm slowly losing my grip on myself


And I know you all think that I'm crazy
I am aware that others think I am insane


That the demons that show up
Others believe that the demons I see


At the foot of my bed
At the foot of my bed


Are just figments from memories
Are simply figments of my memories


That fucked up my head
But those memories have severely impacted my mental wellbeing


That night terrors ain't nothin
Others believe that my night terrors are not real


But a real bad dream
But they are not just a typical bad dream


So quit being a God Damn drama queen
So stop overreacting and being a drama queen


I seal myself in a sound proof room
I isolate myself in a soundproof room


So no one can hear how loud I scream
To prevent others from hearing how much I scream


But you don't think it's as bad as it seems
But others don't believe that it's as severe as I'm making it out to be


Cause you've never dealt with PTSD
Because you've never experienced PTSD like I have


Frozen in your track
Stuck in place, unable to move forward


Take a visit to the past
Think back to that traumatic event


To see the devils dirty deed
To remember the evil actions that caused the trauma


Leave a mark all down your back
Be physically and emotionally scarred from the trauma


I can't even be around cigarettes
I cannot even be around cigarettes due to the trauma they trigger


You know how many people smoke?
Do you know how many people smoke?


Approximately one billion
There are around one billion smokers worldwide


And just about everybody I know
And it seems like everyone I know smokes


You think you know but you don't
You may think you understand, but you truly don't


When someone's broke you can't just heavy sigh
You cannot just sigh heavily when someone is experiencing emotional/spiritual poverty


And roll your eyes
Or roll your eyes


Like if they ain't physically ill
If they don't have a physical illness


Then they must be a liar
Then they must be lying about their mental health


But wouldn't you recede to the fire
But wouldn't you retreat to the fire (i.e., fall apart) if you were in my shoes?


If everything around you became a threat
If everything around you felt like a threat


And everyone surrounding you said
And everyone around you said


GET OVER IT
To just get over it


It becomes unbearable to live in
Living under these conditions becomes unbearable


So listen
So please listen


Triggers are relentless
Triggers are constant and unrelenting


They ain't gonna quit
They won't stop happening


They don't go away just cause you don't
Triggers won't disappear just because others don't believe in their reality


Believe it
It's true whether people believe it or not


Reliving each nightmare on an everyday basis
Every day, I relive the same nightmares and trauma


I don't think I can do this
I don't believe I can keep going through this


I don't think I can take this
I don't think I can handle this anymore


You sent my mind on fire
You caused me intense mental distress


Sparks flying I'm rewired
My mind is a mess and I need to be rewired


You left me no desire
You left me with no motivation or desire to keep going


Broken and uninspired
I'm broken and not inspired to do anything


Hopeless so I get higher
I feel hopeless and try to numb the pain


And higher till I'm tired
I keep increasing my drug/alcohol use until I can't anymore


And there's no reminder
And there is nothing to remind me


Of what I'm crying for
Of why I'm in tears


Cause I can't fucking do this anymore
Because I cannot go through this anymore


What am I even fighting for?
What is the point of all of this fighting?
