Completely Not Me Lyrics
I could've died that night, way back in June
Saw my soul hang heavy above the room
Slack-jawed, I confessed, bit by my hubris
I was spooked out, obsessed by the moon
I was completely not me
But baby, I’m coming clean
The doctors said to you
“Son, there’s nothing you can do
Just leave her here and wait until the day”
I was shivering in bed, eyes rolled back in my head
I was begging for you to go away
I was completely not me
But baby, I’m coming clean
Completely not me
But baby, I’m coming clean
I was completely not me
But baby, I’m coming clean
Completely not me
But baby, I’m coming clean
I died that night, way back in June
While my spirit hung heavy above the room
I was completely not me
Saw my soul hang heavy above the room
I was spooked out, obsessed by the moon
But baby, I’m coming clean
“Son, there’s nothing you can do
Just leave her here and wait until the day”
I was begging for you to go away
But baby, I’m coming clean
Completely not me
But baby, I’m coming clean
But baby, I’m coming clean
Completely not me
But baby, I’m coming clean
While my spirit hung heavy above the room

This song is about the moments before his/her possible death related to addiction. In the first verse, she could've died but overcame her addiction and recovered. In the last verse, she doesn't and dies. I think the chorus that she repeats is like what addicts say: that they are done. But they fall back into old habits, so you keep hearing the same old story; still they haven't changed.
