Dark Offices
Navigating the Shadows: Burnt Pixels' Dark Offices UnveiledLyrics
Under the weather and freaking out about
Feeling unwell and anxious about
Something I've read or seen
Disturbed by something encountered in literature or visual media
Or dreamed
Or affected by a disturbing dream
It's a dangerous business, these dark offices with discarnate souls
Referring to workplaces with negative energy and lost spirits
It can swallow us whole
Highlighting the engulfing and overwhelming nature of such environments
Now I can hear your voice so clear like I was in the next room
Perceiving someone's voice clearly, as if they were nearby
I can't believe that it's you
Expressing disbelief at the identity of the person speaking
That it's you
Reaffirming the surprise at the speaker's identity
My plans were frustrated by a compromise
Facing obstacles in plans due to a compromise
And etiolated by a lack of light
Plans weakened and faded due to a lack of illumination
You say obsessed when you really mean really preoccupied
Highlighting the misuse of the term "obsessed," suggesting intense interest
Or just interested in
Clarifying the depth of interest in a subject
I know you warned me, I know you said sorry
Acknowledging warnings and apologies, expressing assurance and understanding
Don't worry
Reassuring not to worry about the consequences
I always knew you would go
Always anticipating the departure of the person addressed
That you would go
Reiterating the expectation of the person's departure
Oh, cheer up, old boy
Encouraging someone to be optimistic or positive
And now I can't wait for something to take me
Eagerly anticipating an escape or relief from current circumstances
Away from these dark offices
Expressing a desire to move away from negative work environments
Where everything's fake and disintegrating
Describing the falseness and deterioration of the surroundings
And paper-thin
Characterizing the fragility and insubstantiality of the environment
And rigged so you can't win
Indicating a situation where success is intentionally difficult
