Another Song

Lil Peep's 'Another Song' delves into the artist's personal struggles with depression, substance abuse, and feelings of alienation. The lyrics open with a candid confession about his suicidal thoughts and his turn to drugs as a form of escape. This sets a somber tone, reflecting his internal battles and the pain that he feels almost constantly.

As the song progresses, Lil Peep reflects on changes in his relationships and self-perception. The lines 'I remember when you used to hold me close and say you love me / Now you actin' like a ghost and that's okay, I know I'm ugly' suggest a loss of love and self-esteem, which further contribute to his emotional turmoil. Despite achieving some success ('Now I'm swervin' in the ghost and I'm okay I'm gettin' money'), he expresses a deep-seated dissatisfaction with life and the music industry, indicating that fame and wealth have not brought him peace.

The chorus and later verses of the song reveal a resignation to his lifestyle of drug use, suggesting it as a coping mechanism for his ongoing pain and existential dread. Phrases like 'May as well become a junkie' and 'I'm in pain all the time' highlight a bleak outlook on life, where substance use becomes a means to endure rather than a path to recovery. Through 'Another Song,' Lil Peep communicates a raw and unfiltered look at his struggles, making it a poignant expression of his battles with mental health and addiction.
