Navigating Shadows: Cadet Carter's Poetic Journey through Urban Turmoil
Lyrics
I’m trading my innocence
I'm sacrificing my innocence
to have the door swing open
Seeking opportunities by opening doors
I’m drowning my consciousness
Losing awareness or sense of self
to have the world spin round
Experiencing life's ups and downs
the sound of the traffic jam
Comparing the noise of a traffic jam to a negative influence
is like a plague and then some
Describing the town as plagued
in this town I can’t go on
Feeling unable to continue in this town
I’m toning down
Reducing intensity or activity
picking up the pieces of once coming ground
Gathering remnants of a once promising foundation
shivering in places where I found myself
Feeling vulnerable in familiar places
hoping that you’ll feel the same way too
Hoping for mutual feelings
and consequence can only work depending on the circumstance
Emphasizing the role of circumstances in determining consequences
kindness always loses out to ignorance
Noting the tendency for kindness to lose to ignorance
hoping that you feel the same way too
Reiterating the hope for shared feelings
the brightness of city lights feels like I’m under torture
Feeling overwhelmed by the brightness of city lights
Now I preach but ain’t nothing else to say
Expressing a lack of words despite preaching
they believe in different people everyday
Observing changing beliefs in different people
they’re dead and gone
Referring to people who have passed away
in this town I won’t go on
Deciding not to continue in this town
I’m toning down
Reducing intensity or activity (repeated)
picking up the pieces of once coming ground
Gathering remnants of a once promising foundation (repeated)
shivering in places where I found myself
Feeling vulnerable in familiar places (repeated)
hoping that you’ll feel the same way too
Hoping for mutual feelings (repeated)
and consequence can only work depending on the circumstance
Emphasizing the role of circumstances in determining consequences (repeated)
kindness always loses out to ignorance
Noting the tendency for kindness to lose to ignorance (repeated)
hoping that you feel the same way too
Reiterating the hope for shared feelings (repeated)
