The Worm
Rebirth Amid Chaos: Audioslave's Halo of Redemption
Lyrics
Was a time early in life
Reflecting on an earlier stage in life.
When I hated everything
Expressing a period of intense dislike for everything.
Born too young, top of my lungs
Feeling like one matured too quickly, speaking loudly.
Sitting on the bottom rung
Being in a low position or disadvantaged situation.
Took advice from the wrong shoulder
Receiving misguided advice, possibly from a negative influence.
Took a lot of everything
Experiencing excess in various aspects of life.
I've decided to make it alright with my
Deciding to make things better in one's life.
Halo, I'm complete
Referring to a state of completion and satisfaction.
Halo, with me underneath
Feeling protected or supported.
Halo, I'm reborn
Expressing a sense of renewal and purity.
I can do no wrong
Feeling invincible and incapable of wrongdoing.
Black and blue, suffering fools
Describing a state of physical and emotional pain.
By the age of seventeen
Facing challenges and difficulties at a young age.
Low and high, just one more time
Experiencing both extremes in life.
Felt like an eternity
Feeling like time is dragging on.
Right or wrong, never too strong
Emphasizing a commitment to personal values.
Friends became my enemies
Friendships turning into conflicts.
God forsaken but never too late with my
Feeling abandoned by God but finding redemption.
Halo, I'm complete
Reiterating a sense of completeness and satisfaction.
Halo, with me underneath
Reinforcing the idea of being protected or supported.
Halo, I'm reborn
Expressing a sense of renewal and purity again.
I can do no wrong
Reiterating a feeling of invincibility.
Oh oh
Resisting change and staying true to oneself.
You'll never change me
-You'll never change me (you'll stay the same)
-Halo, I'm complete
Repeating a state of completeness and satisfaction.
Halo, with me underneath
Reiterating the theme of being protected or supported.
Halo, I'm reborn
Repeating a sense of renewal and purity.
How can you know?
Pondering on the knowledge or understanding of self.
Halo, I'm complete
Reiterating a state of completeness and satisfaction.
Halo, with me underneath
Reinforcing the idea of being protected or supported.
Halo, I'm reborn
Repeating a sense of renewal and purity once more.
I can do no wrong
Reaffirming a feeling of invincibility.
