Blackout
Embracing the Shadows: A Journey of Redemption in As We Stray's 'Blackout'
Lyrics
Shut me down
Expressing a request to be silenced or ignored.
You're not the one to show
Challenging someone's authority to impart wisdom or guidance.
The truth to your brothers
Suggesting a failure to convey honesty or sincerity to close associates.
How can you be the light in the dark
Raising a question about being a source of guidance in difficult times.
When you've been blacked out
Alluding to a state of personal oblivion or unawareness.
When you've been ragged out
Describing a state of being worn down or exhausted.
Black-eyed ghosts
Introducing a metaphorical image of haunting memories or past actions.
Are crawling through the dust
Continuation of the haunting imagery, possibly related to consequences.
Singing a sad song in my head
Reflecting on melancholic thoughts or experiences.
Tryna figure out why I'm not dead
Expressing confusion and a quest for understanding personal survival.
Singing a sad song in my head
Reiteration of singing a sorrowful tune within one's thoughts.
Tryna stay on my thread
Striving to endure or persevere despite challenges.
Shut me down
Repeat of the initial plea to be disregarded or muted.
You're not the one to show
Re-emphasizing skepticism about someone's ability to guide truthfully.
The truth to your brothers
Reiteration of a lack of trust in sharing genuine information with close ones.
How can you be the light in the dark
Repeating the questioning of one's role as a guiding force in darkness.
When you've been blacked out
Reiteration of being in a state of unawareness or unconsciousness.
When you've been ragged out
Re-emphasizing a sense of being worn down or depleted.
In the eye of the storm
Describing a tumultuous or challenging situation.
I thought i was dead
Reflecting on a past perception of death or near-death experience.
I had to reborn
Expressing a metaphorical rebirth or transformation.
To show myself you could bleed
Stating a willingness to show vulnerability or weakness.
I'd rather die on my feet
Asserting a preference for a dignified demise over a submissive existence.
Than live on my knees
Emphasizing a commitment to stand tall and resist oppression.
Reach me out
Inviting a final attempt at connection or understanding.
One last time
Requesting a last opportunity for communication or reconciliation.
Reach me out
Repetition of the plea for a final attempt at reaching out.
For the last time
Reiteration of the urgency in seeking a last connection.
Shut me down
Repetition of the initial plea to be disregarded or muted.
You're not the one to show
Re-emphasizing skepticism about someone's ability to guide truthfully.
The truth to your brothers
Reiteration of a lack of trust in sharing genuine information with close ones.
How can you be the light in the dark
Repeating the questioning of one's role as a guiding force in darkness.
When you've been blacked out
Reiteration of being in a state of unawareness or unconsciousness.
When you've been ragged out
Re-emphasizing a sense of being worn down or depleted.
