Lyrics
Just like dark and light
Contrasting elements, representing opposing forces or concepts.
End and start of day balance is in sight
The equilibrium between opposing forces is perceptible.
Free from our mistakes
Freedom from errors or wrongdoings.
Inceptions of a war is the human way
The beginning of conflicts or wars is a characteristic of human behavior.
Ignorance is the door to the end of days
Ignorance leads to the eventual downfall or end of days.
Did we learn a thing from our sorry past
Reflecting on humanity's history and whether lessons were learned.
They keep on pulling strings
Others (possibly influential figures) control or manipulate situations.
And we keep falling fast
We continuously succumb to external influences or manipulation.
Can they read my mind witness my distress
Questioning if one's thoughts and distress are perceptible to others.
Coming from the fight of feelings I repress
Struggling with emotions resulting from past conflicts.
It's time to leave it all behind
An intention to move beyond past issues and create understanding.
And try to make you just understand
An attempt to make someone comprehend a perspective.
When we are bound to watch and cry
Observing helplessly and emotionally reacting to a situation.
A fragile equality can be dead
An unstable balance between opposing forces that might collapse.
Freedom for the few rights that do not dare
Freedom is restricted to a select few who don't challenge the status quo.
Nothing here is new we don't seem to care
Apathy towards recurring issues or problems.
I will watch you fall
Watching someone else face adversity similar to one's own experiences.
For it has been done to me
Experiencing hardships similar to those witnessed in others.
As long as I recall blood I see in gray
A continuous history of violence or conflict.
It's time to leave it all behind
Reiteration of the need to move past past issues for understanding.
And try to make you just understand
Effort to convey a perspective for comprehension.
When we are bound to watch and cry
Helplessness in the face of a situation causing emotional response.
A fragile equality can be dead
Highlighting the precarious nature of an unstable equality.
Go!
An abrupt call to action.
Just try to leave the past behind
Encouragement to move away from past events and take control of destiny.
And take your own fate under command
An insistence on leaving behind past issues for personal control.
It's time to leave it all behind
Reiteration of leaving past conflicts for understanding.
And try to make you just understand
Effort to communicate for comprehension.
When we are bound to watch and cry
Witnessing and emotionally responding to an uncontrollable situation.
A fragile equality can be dead
Emphasizing the fragility of an unstable equality.
It's time to leave it all behind
Continuing to stress leaving past issues for understanding.
And try to make you just understand
Continued effort to convey a perspective for comprehension.
When we are bound to watch and cry
Expressing helplessness in a situation causing emotional response.
A fragile equality can be dead
Reiteration of the fragile nature of an unstable equality.
Just like you!
Comparing the listener to the fragile state mentioned throughout the song.
