Lyrics
There's a line that was drawn to divide
There's a clear division, a boundary that separates
The strong and the weak
Between those who are strong and those who are weak
I often wondered why I felt so alone
Feeling a sense of isolation and loneliness
Whenever I heard you speak
Especially when hearing your words
How long can you hang on to the past
Questioning how long one can hold onto the past
Before it starts to slip away?
Before it inevitably slips away
We're all on our God given paths
We are all following our destined paths
That all lead the same way
Paths that ultimately lead to the same destination
Remember that you're free
Reminder of personal freedom
Don't live a life of fear
Encouragement to avoid a life dominated by fear
You can run away from me
Despite the option to escape, choosing to stay
I'm just gonna stay right here
Commitment to remaining in the current situation
You've always wanted nothing but peace
Desire for peace, though consistently denied
But you're forever denied
Struggling with the constant denial
Your body lives a parallel life
Parallel existence of the body and mind
With your mind alongside
Coexistence of physical and mental experiences
And I'd like to make the most of my time
Aspiring to make the most of one's time
And be held in high esteem
Seeking to be highly regarded and respected
But you insist I don't even exist
Insistence from others that one doesn't exist
No I'm just a figure in your dream
Reduced to a mere figure in someone's dream
I don't wanna leave
Reluctance to leave the current state
I thought I made myself clear
Expressing clarity in the decision to stay
I won't know where to go
Uncertainty about where to go if not staying
But I'm aware that I can't stay here
Acknowledgment of the impossibility to remain
Where you see me as nothing more
Feeling unrecognized and devalued
Than a face amongst the crowd
Reduced to being just a face in the crowd
And I find these things are best
Belief that certain truths are best spoken aloud
Spoken out loud
Recognition of the importance of expressing thoughts
So swallow your pride and stand proud
Advising to let go of pride and stand proudly
