Rotten
A Descent into Darkness: Unraveling the Meaning of 'Rotten' by A Secret Revealed
Lyrics
The torch of redemption is doused.
The hope or chance for redemption has been extinguished.
Before the day reflects the night
Before positive aspects or clarity emerge, darkness prevails.
I have to crawl along this path.
The speaker feels compelled to endure a challenging journey.
With their cold breath in my neck
The threat or pressure from others is felt intensely.
Human defilers want me dead.
People who corrupt or violate humanity wish harm or death to the speaker.
In the absence of light, fears are tearing my soul.
In times of darkness, fears are causing inner turmoil.
Everything that ever scared me is now taking control.
Previous fears gain control and influence over the speaker.
Decadence is coming closer, closer to the edge
Decay and moral decline are approaching a critical point.
And the poison we both have inside is operating the same.
The destructive tendencies within both the speaker and someone else are synchronized.
I have become a fallen man.
The speaker has fallen from a higher state or moral standing.
I can't sustain the darkened shadow.
The speaker is unable to endure the oppressive darkness.
Look, I lay by your side until everything is rotten through.
The speaker remains committed to a relationship despite its deterioration.
Decadence is coming closer, closer to the edge
Decay and moral decline are approaching a critical point (repeated).
And the poison we both have inside is operating the same.
The destructive tendencies within both the speaker and someone else are synchronized (repeated).
I have become a fallen man,
The speaker acknowledges their fallen state.
While death is laying by my side.
Death is a constant presence in the speaker's life.
I have become a fallen man,
The speaker reiterates their fallen state.
Until is rotten through.
The speaker remains committed until the situation becomes completely corrupt.
This perception is bothering me.
A sense of perception or understanding is causing disturbance or discomfort.
