Lyrics
As he raises his hand you begin to understand
Realization dawns as someone raises their hand, indicating an understanding.
That no love is worth the hate that you feel
Love isn't valuable enough to justify the intense negative emotions being experienced.
Now you're running out of pain
The feeling of pain is diminishing or coming to an end.
And all these feelings feel the same
All emotions seem indistinguishable or equally overwhelming.
So you close your eyes and wish it all away
In an attempt to escape, you shut your eyes and wish for it all to disappear.
And I lie awake and I try to say
The singer struggles to console and offer comfort while being awake.
Anything I know just to ease your pain
Trying to share any knowledge or words that might alleviate the pain.
But you hide away where no one can see
You retreat or hide where no one can observe your suffering.
And it's only you that can set you free
Only you have the power to liberate yourself from this situation.
Now the time has come again
A moment or a phase has returned once more.
So you reach deep down within
You search internally to rediscover the strength you've hidden or suppressed.
To find the strength that you have buried there
To move forward, you need to find the inner resilience you've buried.
As you turn to walk away you can still hear him say
Even as you depart, the voice of doubt or negativity still echoes in your mind.
You'll never make it in this world alone
A discouraging statement implying the impossibility of success without support.
You try to fight (you try to fight)
An attempt to resist or combat the pain.
You hide the pain (you hide the pain)
Concealing or trying to mask the pain from others.
You walk away (never again)
Deciding to leave a situation behind and not experience it again.
