All Time Low – Weightless lyrics

All Time Low – Weightless lyrics

Manage me, I'm a mess
Turn a page, I'm a book half unread
I wanna be laughed at, laughed with just because
I wanna feel weightless and that should be enough

But I'm stuck in this fucking rut,
Waiting on a second hand pick me up
And I'm over getting older
If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over getting old

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction to everything I fear
'Cause I've been going crazy
I don't want to waste another minute here

Make believe that I impress
That every word by design turns a head
I wanna feel reckless, wanna live it up just because (Just because)
I wanna feel weightless 'cause that would be enough

If I could just find the time then I would never let another day go by
I'm over getting old

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction to everything I fear (Everything I fear)
'Cause I've been going crazy
I don't want to waste another minute here

This could be all that I've waited for (I've waited, I've waited for)
And this could be everything, I don't wanna dream anymore

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year
And I've been going crazy, I'm stuck in here (I'm stuck in here)

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year (it's gonna be my year)
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere (go nowhere)
And this is my reaction to everything I fear (everything I fear)
'Cause I've been going crazy
I don't want to waste another minute here

For me this songs about a person who felt like they were never quite good enough (manage me I'm a mess) and like no one ever really stuck around to get to know the real them (I'm a book half unread) deciding they were tired of being stuck in a rut and waiting for other people to make life ok while they sit around all depressed, because all they were watching life pass them by so they were going to get up and conquer all the things that were holding them back and live life to the fullest.

I believe this song is about someone, possibly a member of a band (likely All Time Low) who, for one night/day, would like to let themselves go. As they progress further into fame, they fall further into a rut ("Now I'm stuck in this fucking rut") or rather, depression. They've lost who they truly were or who they had once been, and it is in their highest hopes to have just a moment to let it all go. If you've ever seen the video, we're introduced to all different types of fans (the groupies at the beginning probably stuck the most) - who are what? Only fans of the attractiveness of the band, not their music or personalities. The song is about someone who is battling depression, and praying for someone to notice them as who they really are.
