In line 6 of the song, the persona continuous to speak about their own failures and the sense of loss. ”Lost to myself”, this suggests that the speaker has something they want to achieve but they failed themselves. However in line 6 the speaker then says “but I'll just start again”. These two phases used in line 6 contradict themselves creating an oxymoron. The persona has lost and failed but they want to start again and keep going. This contrast, creates a sense of perseverance and an ‘never give up attitude’ from the persona.
