Maelstrom
Maelstrom of Despair: Battling the Abyss Within
Lyrics
Cast away
Feeling abandoned or rejected
As the water crashes over me
Overwhelmed by challenges and difficulties
I start to see
Beginning to perceive or understand something
That the tides are against me
Facing opposition or obstacles
Lost at sea
Adrift and without guidance
Nothing to guide me
Feeling lost and directionless
Losing hope
Losing optimism about a positive outcome
That I’ll ever see the sunrise
Doubting the possibility of a brighter future
Surrounded by violent waves
Surrounded by challenges or difficulties
That challenge me
Facing adversities that test one's abilities
Drag me to the depths
Being dragged down or overwhelmed
Taking all that I have left
Losing everything that remains
The skyline's darker than I’ve ever seen
Experiencing a particularly dark and difficult moment
The ocean is calling out to me
Feeling the call of something ominous or dangerous
Sinking slowly
Sinking into despair or failure
Losing ground
Losing one's footing or support
Lost the light I’m broken
Feeling shattered and without illumination
Monsters wait for me below
Facing threatening or monstrous challenges
The ocean floor will be my home
Accepting a challenging situation as one's fate
I can’t stop the current as it’s pulling me in
Unable to resist or change the current situation
My vessel's decaying as it twists in the wind
Experiencing decay and instability
They’re pulling me under with the weight of my sins
Being overwhelmed by the consequences of one's actions
Lost and abandoned in hopelessness
Feeling abandoned and without hope
Grin and bear your teeth
Enduring difficulties with resilience
What more can you do to me
Challenging life to bring more adversity
The skyline's darker than I’ve ever seen
Experiencing an even darker moment
The ocean is calling out to me
Feeling the ominous call of the ocean intensify
Sinking slowly
Gradually succumbing to despair or failure
Losing ground
Continuing to lose support or ground
Lost the light I’m broken
Remaining shattered and without illumination
Monsters wait for me below
Facing threatening challenges with resilience
The ocean floor is now my home
Accepting the challenging situation as permanent
You were the lifeboat that kept me afloat
Reflecting on a past source of support or salvation
Now you’re the anchor wrapped around my throat
Feeling that a past support has become a burden
