Lyrics
When I close my eyes only for a moment
Reflecting on a fleeting moment where there's a contrast between light and a beckoning darkness.
I can see the light, but the darkness is calling
Sensing the allure of darkness despite the presence of light, feeling pulled towards it.
Pulling me down, taking me up to emptiness below
Being drawn in conflicting directions—downward towards emptiness and upward simultaneously.
I can't hold it back, I'm letting go of the innocence again
Releasing inhibitions, surrendering innocence once more, unable to restrain it.
And if you ever feel ashamed
Addressing feelings of shame and culpability, feeling responsible for one's actions.
Like you're the one to blame
Feeling responsible for outcomes and burdened by the weight of perceived faults.
And the weight of all the world
Sensing the immense pressure of the world's problems.
Is on your shoulders crushing you
Experiencing overwhelming pressure and responsibility.
When the walls are closing in
Feeling trapped and suffocated by circumstances.
You gotta fight it from within
Encouragement to confront and combat internal struggles.
Will you rise above the pain
Pondering the choice between overcoming pain or succumbing to it.
Or will you simply come undone
The potential outcome of being overwhelmed and falling apart.
Every single lie, every promise broken
Contemplating the effects of deceit and shattered promises, leading to a sense of directionless existence.
It leads me to the other side, all the life going no where
Feeling pulled towards a life lacking purpose or direction.
Pulling me down, taking me up to the emptiness below
Being drawn in conflicting directions—downward towards emptiness and upward simultaneously.
I can't hold it back, can't let it go
Unable to restrain or release something causing inner turmoil.
Will I ever live again?
Questioning the possibility of rediscovering a fulfilling life.
And if you ever feel ashamed
Addressing feelings of shame and culpability, feeling responsible for one's actions.
Like you're the one to blame
Feeling responsible for outcomes and burdened by the weight of perceived faults.
And the weight of all the world
Sensing the immense pressure of the world's problems.
Is on your shoulders crushing you
Experiencing overwhelming pressure and responsibility.
When the walls are closing in
Feeling trapped and suffocated by circumstances.
You gotta fight it from within
Encouragement to confront and combat internal struggles.
Will you rise above the pain
Pondering the choice between overcoming pain or succumbing to it.
Or will you simply come undone
The potential outcome of being overwhelmed and falling apart.
I found a little salvation there under the midnight sun
Discovering a semblance of relief or hope in a difficult situation, amidst darkness.
I gotta fight this fear inside of me 'cause I got no where to run
Feeling compelled to confront internal fears without an apparent escape route.
And if you ever feel ashamed
Addressing feelings of shame and culpability, feeling responsible for one's actions.
Like you're the one to blame
Feeling responsible for outcomes and burdened by the weight of perceived faults.
And the weight of all the world
Sensing the immense pressure of the world's problems.
Is on your shoulders crushing you
Experiencing overwhelming pressure and responsibility.
When the walls are closing in
Feeling trapped and suffocated by circumstances.
You gotta fight it from within
Encouragement to confront and combat internal struggles.
Will you rise above the pain
Pondering the choice between overcoming pain or succumbing to it.
Or will you simply come undone
The potential outcome of being overwhelmed and falling apart.
Will you rise above the pain or come undone
Final contemplation of whether to endure pain or collapse under its weight.
