The Night's Already Black
Embracing Shadows: Navigating Life's Abyss with Ancient Cities
Lyrics
cre you hiding from yourself?
Are you hiding from your true self?
Trying to be someone else or just waiting for the ice to melt on your frozen soul?
Are you trying to be someone else or waiting for a change in your inner self?
Hey do you feel any pain or are you numb?
Do you feel any emotional pain, or are you emotionally numb?
Does this world drive you insane, have you had enough?
Is the world causing you to go insane, and have you reached a breaking point?
Oh maybe if I said the right words you would take me back but the night's already black
Expressing a desire for reconciliation, but it seems too late as the night symbolizes darkness or closure.
You know the consequence of striking matches in the wind
Awareness of the consequences of taking risks that might not lead to positive outcomes.
Some you lose and some you win just to let it go
Acceptance that in life, there are victories and losses, and sometimes it's better to let go.
cnd the serpent's hiding near waiting to shed its skin
Reference to a lurking danger or temptation, waiting to reveal itself.
To be born again in the same cruel world
Reflection on the cycle of life, death, and rebirth in a challenging world.
What do you say to yourself when you're all alone?
Questioning one's inner thoughts and self-reflection during moments of solitude.
cre you speaking in tongues only you can decode?
Wondering if one communicates in a way that is only understood by oneself.
Oh baby if I said it out loud it would echo back
Fear of expressing something openly that might have repercussions.
Everything I do you overreact
Suggesting that actions are misinterpreted or blown out of proportion.
When it's spinning of course, no oars, we'd be over the edge if the earth was flat
Metaphorical reference to being in a precarious situation, with the risk of going over the edge.
Well, there's no turning back
Acknowledgment that once certain actions are taken, there is no way to reverse them.
La la la la la
Repetition of "La la la" as a musical interlude without specific lyrical meaning.
La la la la la la
-La la la la la
-La la la la la la
-La la la la la
-La la la la la
-La la la la la la
-La la la la la
-What if the lives we had kept living on in some parallel world inaccessible?
Contemplation of alternate realities and the inaccessibility of paths not taken.
But there's no machine that could take us back
Recognition that there is no device capable of reversing or changing past experiences.
To stitch all the holes and fix all the cracks
Impossibility of repairing all the damages and flaws accumulated over time.
Mend all the wounds, unbury the cat
Listing tasks symbolizing the difficulty of undoing past actions and consequences.
The night's already black
Reiteration that the night is irreversible, implying closure or finality.
Find the gold and meet your match
Suggesting a quest for valuable experiences and finding a compatible partner.
Place your bets and then turn your back
Encouraging taking risks and then distancing oneself from the outcome.
Dream the dreams then face the facts
Balancing dreams with reality, facing the truth of situations.
The night's already black
Reiteration of the irreversible nature of the night, emphasizing finality.
La la la la la
Repetition of "La la la" as a musical outro without specific lyrical meaning.
La la la la la la
-La la la la la
-La la la la la la
-La la la la la
-La la la la la
-La la la la la la la la la la la la
