Heavy Is The Hollow Of A Mortal Soul
Echoes of Unspoken Words: Embracing the Weight Within
Lyrics
I found your bed in my head
I found memories of your presence lingering in my thoughts.
With those words we never said
There were things we never expressed verbally.
Why don't you put that body next to mine?
Why don't we physically be together?
I saw the smiles that we faked, easy comes for effort's sake
I observed insincere smiles we displayed for the sake of trying easily.
Ask and I'll lay my weapons on the ground
If you ask, I'll surrender my defenses.
And all the while, call irony our style
We often find irony in our actions as our characteristic.
And all the way seems to beckon our dismay
The entire journey seems to invite our disappointment.
So, baby, baby, baby, baby, you can hear that drum roll?
A rhetorical question asking if the person can sense impending trouble or tension.
Cos heavy is the hollow of a mortal soul
Life's emptiness or lack of fulfillment in a human's essence is burdensome.
I touched the tears we don't cry, for to feel we'd have to try
I experienced the unshed tears, indicating emotional suppression.
Good is bad, bad is good, all the sirens sound
The confusion of defining good and bad, signaled by warning signs.
I meet my match with the moon
I find a companion in the moon, sharing silent moments together.
We both stare and don't speak too soon
We both hesitate to express prematurely.
The beast is real, or so I've heard, but nobody knows
There's a belief in the existence of something frightening, yet it remains unknown.
And all of my lies feed the make up of my guise
My falsehoods contribute to the construction of my facade.
Cos all I've learned's not so
The knowledge acquired doesn't necessarily hold true.
So baby, baby, baby, can your hear that drum roll?
Repetition of the earlier query, questioning the anticipation of impending trouble or tension.
Cos heavy is the hollow of a mortal soul
Reiteration of the burden of emptiness within human existence.
So baby, baby, baby, can your hear that drum roll?
Repeated questioning if the person perceives imminent trouble or tension.
Cos heavy is the hollow of a mortal soul
Restating the weightiness of the emptiness within the human essence.
