Lyrics
There's someone inside me
There is an internal conflict or struggle within the speaker.
That softly kills everyone around
The internal conflict negatively impacts those around the speaker.
They don't know they're dead to me 'cause
Others are unaware that they are no longer emotionally connected to the speaker due to the internal struggle.
Intent never makes a sound
Intentions or feelings do not manifest audibly or visibly.
All along they found I strangled
The speaker has harmed relationships, particularly with those who learned slowly.
Lovers who've learned from slower hands
Reference to individuals who were in relationships with the speaker.
In these eleven minutes I could teach you what I am
The speaker believes they can reveal their true nature in a short period.
You're sick, sick as all the
Addressing someone as sick, implying moral or emotional illness.
Secrets that you deny
Hidden truths that the person refuses to acknowledge.
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
Comparing sins to skeletons, difficult to conceal or bury.
You're sick, sick as all the
Repetition of addressing someone as sick.
Secrets that you deny
Repetition of hidden truths and sins being hard to hide.
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
Reiteration of the challenge of concealing sins.
There's an art in seclusion
Highlighting the skill or strategy involved in isolating oneself.
Production in depression
Creating or generating something meaningful in a state of sadness.
If a stranger turns up missing
If someone unfamiliar disappears, this song serves as the speaker's admission of guilt.
This song is my confession
The song is a confession of the speaker's actions.
Tell the tales of the trail of dead
Telling stories about the consequences of destructive behavior.
Lovers learned from slower hands
Repetition of lovers who learned slowly, emphasizing the impact of the speaker's actions on relationships.
Losing self in myself
Losing one's identity in introspection.
Inner demons make demands
Inner conflicts or personal struggles demanding attention.
You're sick, sick as all the
Repeating the description of someone as sick.
Secrets that you deny
Restating the presence of hidden truths that the person refuses to acknowledge.
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
Repetition of sins being compared to skeletons, hard to conceal.
You're sick, sick as all the
Repetition of addressing someone as sick.
Secrets that you deny
Repetition of hidden truths and sins being hard to hide.
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
Reiteration of the challenge of concealing sins.
You're suffocating me, so very hard to breathe
Feeling overwhelmed and restricted, making it hard to breathe.
My mask is growing heavy but I've forgotten who's beneath
The speaker is wearing a metaphorical mask, forgetting their true self underneath.
You're sick, sick as all the
Repeating the description of someone as sick.
Secrets that you deny
Restating the presence of hidden truths that the person refuses to acknowledge.
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
Repetition of sins being compared to skeletons, hard to conceal.
You're sick, sick as all the
Repeating the description of someone as sick.
Secrets that you deny
Repetition of hidden truths and sins being hard to hide.
Sins like skeletons are so very hard to hide
Reiteration of the challenge of concealing sins.
