Faithless
Navigating the Shadows: Unveiling the Inner Struggles in 'Faithless' by Black Country Communion
Lyrics
I face another day
Beginning a new day
So hard to live inside
Difficult to cope with internal struggles
The pleasure dome
A metaphorical space of pleasure and fulfillment
The fear won't go away
Anxiety or dread persists
It shadows me
Constantly follows and affects me
Wherever I may roam
No matter where I go
What has become of me
Reflection on personal change or decline
The alchemy has left me
The transformation or magic has deserted me
In a haze
Feeling confused or disoriented
Hung by a rope again
Feeling trapped or controlled once more
My life cast out
My life feels aimless or lost
At sea amen
Feeling abandoned or adrift, as in the open sea
My lack of faith
My lack of belief or trust
Has no shame
Without remorse or guilt
It is reckless
It is careless or heedless
And I know
Understanding or realizing
There's no flame
There's no passion or fervor
For the Faithless
For those without faith
I fail the polygraph
I fail to pass the test of honesty or truth
I can't derail the voice
Unable to silence the inner voice or conscience
Inside my hide
Within my inner self
Here in the aftermath
Reflecting on consequences after an event
Now I regret the choice
Now feeling remorse for a decision made
That I can't shed
Unable to let go of something
There is no compromise
No room for agreement or settlement
And I don't want to
Unwilling to imagine or foresee
Visualize
Not wanting to visualize or picture
