Lyrics

I can't see those trees anymore

The speaker is unable to perceive the trees anymore, suggesting a loss of connection or awareness.

I can't see that field

The speaker can no longer see a particular field, indicating a loss of familiarity or a sense of detachment.

I can't see if we care anymore

Doubt is expressed about whether there is still care or concern present in the situation.

But for material

Actions or motivations seem driven primarily by materialistic concerns.


Orange and black they wear

Workers dressed in orange and black attire, likely symbolic of construction workers or laborers.

Beneath hardhats they stare

They gaze intently under their hardhats, potentially indicating a focused or determined demeanor.

As metal gleams with sunlit glare

The metal shines in the sunlight, possibly highlighting the allure or attraction of the construction process.

And ground breaks

Groundbreaking for construction projects.

Landscape laid bare

The environment is stripped bare for the construction's foundation.

Foundation rises, we breathe the burning air

Despite progress, there's a sense of discomfort or unease amidst the process.

We're not satisfied but will fortune truly take us there

Questioning whether success or fortune will bring contentment.


Let it break down

Advocating for a breakdown or disruption of the current system or approach.

Let us build for more than the dollars where we'll drown

Encouraging a shift towards building something meaningful beyond financial gain.


Failure finds me where

A sense of being unnoticed or overlooked in failure.

No one sees, do I dare

Contemplating whether to expose personal imperfections or weaknesses.

Let my flaws find the morning air

Willingness to let one's flaws be seen or acknowledged.

And let you shine on all my secrets

A desire for transparency or openness in relationships.

Days drenched in disrepair

Days marked by neglect or lack of maintenance.

Can't rewind, must relearn where

Recognizing the need to relearn certain things due to irreversible mistakes.

To run when the weight I bear

Learning to navigate challenges and burdens that bring despair.

Draws me in to this despair

Feeling trapped or drawn into a state of hopelessness.


Let it break down

Advocating for a breakdown or disruption of the status quo.

Let the scalpel tear the skin, I trust it now

Metaphorically allowing oneself to be vulnerable and open, trusting the process of self-reflection or change.

I trust you now

Expressing trust in another individual or entity.

Let me break

Expressing a desire or need to undergo personal transformation or change.

Everyday, everyday

Let me break

Desiring a transformative or breaking experience on a daily basis.

Let it break down

Repeated advocacy for disruption or breakdown of established norms.

Let the scalpel tear the skin, I trust it now

Reiterating the trust in vulnerability and introspection for personal growth.

I trust you now

Reaffirming trust in an individual or process for personal development.
