Blue
Echoes of Desperation: Ben Patrick's Blue
Lyrics
Silence is deafening
Silence is overwhelming and all-encompassing
Yet my ears still ring
Despite the silence, there's a persistent ringing in my ears
This tinnitus screwed me over
Tinnitus, a constant noise, has negatively impacted me
Stillness can break the sound
Quietness has the power to disrupt and shatter sound
As the years run out
Time is passing, and the years are diminishing
Keeping us from feeling older
We try to avoid feeling older as time progresses
Do you feel how slow it runs
Sensation of time moving very slowly
Everything's undone
Everything seems to be falling apart
Can I fix this
Questioning the possibility of fixing the situation
Desperation fills my lungs
Feeling of desperation, difficulty breathing
Everything's undone
Everything seems to be unraveling
Everything
A general sense of loss and hopelessness
Reach out for something new
Seeking something different or new
And my hands turn blue
Hands turning blue symbolizes a sense of coldness or isolation
'Cause the void is bleak and barren
The emptiness is dark and desolate
Withdraw my selfless thoughts
Withdrawing unselfish thoughts or kindness
Now my soul is lost
The speaker's soul is now lost or disconnected
And there's no one I can share with
A lack of someone to share emotions or experiences with
Circumstance has thrown me down
Life's circumstances have brought the speaker down
Someone catch me now
Calling for help to prevent a further decline
Or I'll fall through
Fear of falling through or failing
Do they care the state I'm in
Questioning if others are aware of the speaker's state
Nod your head and grin
A request for acknowledgment, even if superficial
It'll end soon
Anticipating the end of the difficult situation
