Sometimes

And One's song 'Sometimes' delves into the complex emotions of an individual grappling with the expectations placed upon them by their family and society. The lyrics reflect a deep sense of confusion and a struggle to understand one's true self amidst these external pressures. The protagonist recalls being labeled a 'good boy' or 'good girl' by their parents, adhering to their will and societal norms. However, there is a lingering question of authenticity—'was it me - how did I feel?' This line underscores the internal conflict between fulfilling roles imposed by others and discovering one's genuine identity.

The song progresses to a point where the protagonist reaches a moment of clarity and determination. The repetition of 'I don't wanna crawl no more' signifies a strong desire to break free from the constraints and expectations that have been suffocating them. The imagery of burning down the 'house of hate' and finding the 'key to close the door' symbolizes a decisive act of liberation and the beginning of a new chapter. This act of rebellion is not just against external forces but also an internal battle to reclaim their sense of self.

The recurring theme of loneliness in the lyrics, 'I want to be all alone' and 'I'm so lonely,' highlights the paradox of seeking solitude to find oneself while also feeling the weight of isolation. The song captures the essence of a personal revolution, where the protagonist chooses to confront their inner turmoil and societal expectations head-on. 'Sometimes' is a poignant exploration of the journey towards self-discovery, the courage to defy norms, and the bittersweet realization of one's true desires and identity.
