Screen Enemy
Emotional Confrontation: Dark Secrets Unveiled
Lyrics
Light so still I seem a dizzy thing
Describing a calm and motionless light, feeling disoriented.
May Parade lines up on Liberty Street
A parade named "May Parade" aligns on Liberty Street.
in the dark impossible to see
In darkness, visibility is impossible, making it challenging to discern.
if it's a window or a movie screen
Uncertainty about whether what is observed is a window or a movie screen.
While the night grows deep
As the night deepens, facing a personal adversary.
I face my enemy
Confronting an enemy during the night.
your body lies asleep
The person's body is in a state of sleep.
like fire over me
The sleeping body exudes a powerful presence like fire.
Seems like wilderness to you it's known
The surroundings may seem wild, but it's familiar to the individual.
no one walks it for you
No one else treads the path for the person; they walk their own journey.
you walk your own
Leaving quietly at dawn, possibly parting ways or a symbolic departure.
leave me silently at break of dawn
Sealing off and preserving every part touched by the person.
sealing every part your hand was on
(Empty line, no lyrical content)
While the night grows deep
(Repeated from Line 7)
I face my enemy
(Repeated from Line 8)
your body lies asleep
(Repeated from Line 9)
like fire over me
(Empty line, no lyrical content)
while the hours move
A realization about the passage of time while facing the night.
I realize it was true
Reflecting on the truth that becomes apparent with passing hours.
your fever was no sickness
The realization that the person's fever was not an illness.
like fire over you
The intensity and impact of the person's presence, likened to fire.
