Barricade
Breaking Through: Buckcherry's Struggle for Redemption
Lyrics
What is everybody looking for
Questioning the collective search for something.
Whatcha got for me behind closed doors
Asking about hidden aspects or secrets.
Lost everything but ya still want some more
Desiring more despite losing everything.
Feelin' manic and been up for days
Expressing a restless and sleep-deprived state.
Whatcha got for me to kill this pain
Seeking something to numb emotional pain.
Turn up the heat 'cause my heart is so cold
Describing emotional coldness, suggesting a need for warmth.
Breaking right through the barricade
Breaking through obstacles or barriers.
Breaking right through the walls
Overcoming challenges and resistance.
And hear the calls of all the people who've changed
Listening to the voices of those who have undergone change.
Breaking right through the barricade
Continuing to break through barriers.
Open your arms and drop your guard
Encouraging vulnerability by opening up.
I know it's hard but we all look insane
Acknowledging the difficulty of being open.
Like an addict with a broken dream
Comparing oneself to an addicted person with shattered dreams.
You can't always get your tricks for free
Highlighting that not everything comes without a cost.
And I must confess I always get what I need
Confessing the ability to obtain necessary things.
If you want it you can look inside
Inviting scrutiny, suggesting hidden truths.
All the answers will corrupt your mind
Warning that seeking answers may have consequences.
It gets turbulent and there's so much to find, ooh
Referring to a turbulent journey with much to discover.
Breaking right through the barricade
Reiterating the theme of breaking through barriers.
Breaking right through the walls
Emphasizing the persistence in overcoming obstacles.
And hear the calls of all the people who've changed
Hearing the stories of those who have transformed.
Breaking right through the barricade
Continuing the struggle to break barriers.
Open your arms and drop your guard
Encouraging vulnerability and lowering defenses.
I know it's hard but we all look insane
Acknowledging the shared struggle and potential insanity.
Way down the line I'll be waiting for you
Expressing anticipation and patience.
Look in my eyes don't forget what I told you
Reminding not to forget communicated truths.
You don't have to cry
Assuring that crying is unnecessary.
'Cause it all gets better when we die
Optimistic view that things improve after death.
Breaking right through the barricade
Repeating the determination to break barriers.
Breaking right through the walls
Reiterating the theme of overcoming walls.
And hear the calls of all the people who've changed
Hearing the stories of transformed people.
Breaking right through the barricade
Persisting in the struggle to break barriers.
Open your arms and drop your guard
Encouraging vulnerability and dropping defenses.
I know it's hard but we all look insane
Acknowledging the shared difficulty and potential insanity.
And we all are to blame
Expressing collective responsibility and accountability.
Break the barricade
Calling for the dismantling of barriers.
