In A Spiral Lyrics

I'm a name, on a feed, in a spiral
Imitate, elevate, making heads roll
Every day, every day, in a spiral
Every night, dancing with my shadow
Run away to the shade in a spiral
Imitate, elevate, watching heads roll

I can see the end is coming 'round
Every day, every day, in a spiral
Better help me now, I'm going down
Every day, every day, in a spiral

I'm a void, in a hole, in a hollow
Fantasy on our feed when I follow
No mistake, catch a break with your high hopes
Okay, okay, put you in a k-hole

I can see the end is coming 'round
In a spiral
Better help me now, I'm going down

When did I get home?
Around and around it goes
Am I all I know?
But you still keep calling
Where did my time go?
All around and around it shows
I am all I know
But I still keep falling

I can see the end is coming 'round
Every day, every day, in a spiral
Every day, every day
Better help me now, I'm going down
(Every day, every day) in a spiral
(Every day, every day) in a spiral

What is the Meaning of In A Spiral?

This haunting track serves as a metaphor for feeling trapped in a cycle of despair and self-destruction. The lyrics suggest the protagonist is spiraling out of control, perhaps due to addiction or mental health struggles. Phrases like "I'm a name, on a feed, in a spiral" could refer to the isolating effects of social media, while "every night, dancing with my shadow" might signify battling inner demons. The repeated pleas for help indicate desperation and hopelessness. Yet there's also an element of self-awareness, as seen in "When did I get home? Am I all I know?" suggesting the protagonist realizes their situation but feels powerless to change it. Ultimately, it's a poignant exploration of personal turmoil in today's digital age.
