Lyrics
Terminal illness, he's a bird of prey
Terminal illness, depicting the protagonist as a predatory figure.
And his scars are hidden with lies
Scars are concealed with lies, suggesting a hidden and troubled past.
No one dared remember his name
Ostracized to the extent that people refuse to remember the protagonist's name.
As they thought he would not die
Belief that the protagonist is immortal leads to negligence.
Cigarette burns, they're just "lessons learned"
Cigarette burns symbolize painful experiences, seen as "lessons learned."
Blinded to screams are the eyes
Ignorance or indifference to the suffering of others.
At the mercy, of his own blood
The protagonist is at the mercy of their own blood, possibly familial struggles.
Can't control the noose that ties
Lack of control over a destructive force represented by a noose.
(Someone help, please see)
A plea for help, indicating a desperate situation.
They tell me that it's for my own good
Others claim that the protagonist's suffering is for their own good.
(Someone help, please see)
Expresses the disregard and apathy of those who should care.
No one even cares as they should
Continuation of the theme of neglect from those who should care.
(Someone help, please see)
Highlighting the lack of freedom, rights, and affection in the protagonist's life.
Lack of freedom, rights, and affection
Repetition of the plea for help, emphasizing the urgency.
(Someone help, please see)
Sardonically portraying the cruel reaction of others to the protagonist's suffering.
Laugh as they receive the lethal injection
The irony of people finding amusement in the protagonist's demise.
All of my demons, it seems they have come for me
Demons symbolize internal struggles, indicating a personal crisis.
No room for dreams, my nightmare is reality
No space for aspirations, the harsh reality dominates.
Each of my thoughts inside, tell me to take care of mine
Internal conflict urging the protagonist to prioritize self-care.
I do my best to hide, cause I'm just tryna subside
Attempting to conceal pain and distress for a sense of normalcy.
Send me to school with wounds
Depicting a harsh upbringing with physical wounds inflicted before school.
Leave me without food
Highlighting neglect and deprivation of basic needs, such as food.
If I say something, i lose
The fear of repercussions for speaking out or resisting.
This ain't the life i choose
Expressing dissatisfaction with a life not of the protagonist's choosing.
Mourn from the grave
Mourning for a life that couldn't be saved, reflecting on past regrets.
Regret they could not save
Regret over missed opportunities to prevent a tragic outcome.
Now that it's too late
Realization that it's too late to change the past.
It's time to make change
A call for proactive change to avoid a similar fate in the future.
(Someone help, please see)
Reiteration of the plea for help, underscoring desperation.
They tell me that it's for my own good
Repeated claim that suffering is for the protagonist's own good.
(Someone help, please see)
Reinforcement of the theme of neglect from those who should care.
No one even cares as they should
Continuation of the portrayal of apathy and indifference.
(Someone help, please see)
Restatement of the lack of freedom, rights, and affection.
Lack of freedom, rights, and affection
Repetition of the plea for help, emphasizing urgency.
(Someone help, please see)
Sardonic description of people finding joy in witnessing the protagonist's demise.
Laugh as they receive...
Conclusion with a grim acceptance of others reveling in the protagonist's suffering.
