I apologize up front for this opinion.
I think that this is a very good message and massively relatable...but...I don't feel like your lyrics "stuck it."
I never felt "put-in-the-song."
The airmask thing was lost on me until I read your clarification.
"exhausted from interactions" sounds like something that a news reporter would say.
"For the most part I've been blessed," seems beside-the-point and somewhat gratuitous.
Imho...it needs a scene or two where an interaction(s) is described.
Feel free to ignore me.

All feedback is appreciated and yes, I"m still working on the oxygen mask line........... proves the point songwriting is a lot of work .
Exhaustion from interactions is probably my own take on... "I'm just tired of talking to people".............. I put in the I've been blessed so the whole song wasn't depressing and angry.....
If I were writing a country song, this would be totally different, but I'm trying to think outside my wheelhouse. Stretch my creativity.
All your points are valued and appreciated..........and valid for sure.
if you have any suggestions, I"m totally open and thank you so much for listening with such a thoughtful ear.
