Lyrics

I've watched you die one thousand times

I have witnessed your figurative death many times.

Not a moment passes where I forget

There is not a single moment when I forget.

How you stabbed my spine

Reflecting on how you betrayed me deeply.


People like you are such a Shame

Individuals like you bring disgrace.

Use all the ones you claim to save

You exploit those you pretend to rescue.

Kill the world to save yourself

You harm the world to protect yourself.

But it's no wonder

No surprise that we all endure hardship.

We're all going through hell

We collectively face difficult times.


How cruel the world can be when it's back is turned

The world can be harsh when it turns away.

How warm the devil's hand is

The devil's hand is warm with bold hatred.

With his hate so bold it burns

Expressing the intensity of malevolent feelings.

I cry more and more each time

I cry increasingly each time.

When I recollect on how you crossed the line

Reflecting on the moment when you crossed a moral boundary.


Bridges to Ashes

Metaphorical reference to relationships turning into ruins.

Dust to dust

Symbolizing the transient nature of life.

My love decays

My love deteriorates or fades away.

Consumed by rust

Being consumed by decay or deterioration.


Good on you to push that being damaged is my fault

Acknowledging responsibility for personal damage.

I can embrace all my flaws

I accept all my imperfections.

But you can't yourself at all

You, however, cannot accept your own flaws.

You couldn't grin and bear your shortcomings

You couldn't endure and admit your weaknesses.

And admit that you were scared to be alone (Bring it back)

Recognizing fear of solitude and the need for companionship.

You couldn't grin and bear your shortcomings

Reiteration of the inability to confront shortcomings.

And admit that you were scared to be alone

-

Shows from the abuse in you home

Indication of the impact of abuse in one's home.


Here I go again

Repeating a cycle of wasting thoughts on you.

Wasting my thoughts on you

Continuing to invest mental energy in you.

I wish you could see

Desiring that you comprehend the harm inflicted.

The Damage you've done to me

Acknowledging the damage caused to the speaker.


You swear that we were an island

You claimed we were an isolated entity.

But i was always standing still

I, however, remained stagnant in a chaotic world.

In the midst of an apocalyptic world

Existing amid an apocalyptic environment.


Bridges to Ashes

Metaphorical reference to relationships turning into ruins (repeated).

Dust to dust

Symbolizing the transient nature of life (repeated).

My love decays

My love deteriorates or fades away (repeated).

Consumed by rust

Being consumed by decay or deterioration (repeated).


In your darkest moments

In moments of despair, acknowledging one's fraudulent nature.

You know you're a fraud

Admitting to using others for self-preservation.

Who uses everyone to keep yourself alive

A suggestion to surrender or give up.

You should just give up

Encouraging resignation or acceptance of defeat.


Ashes to ashes

Symbolizing the end or deterioration of something (repeated).

Dust to Dust

Returning to the concept of life's transience (repeated).
