Over the Bridge
Rising Above the Abyss: Candlelit Vigil's Resilient Anthem
Lyrics
These altercations are boring me
Expressing dissatisfaction with conflicts
Your observations are not that keen
Stating that the listener's perceptions aren't sharp
You'd learn the truth if you'd pick a line
Encouraging the listener to commit to a viewpoint for understanding
But you never seem to stay in time
Not staying in sync or in alignment with others
Take a drag
Using drugs (metaphorically or literally)
Another pack
Continuing with substance use
Do a line
Suggesting another drug-related action
Snort it fast
Encouraging rapid drug consumption
Brown paper bag full of everything you've ever had
Metaphorically referencing a collection of life experiences
Does your life amount to that
Questioning the significance of the listener's life
You're all self medicating
Pointing out self-medicating behaviors
Fucked up, you're all sedating
Highlighting being numbed or tranquilized
Open your eyes and see the other path
Encouraging seeing alternative options
Open your eyes and see that I'm on track
Asserting being on the right path compared to the listener
I know you will fall
Predicting the listener's downfall
But you don't have be the one to lose it all
Encouraging the listener not to lose everything despite the predicted fall
Keep your head held high
Advising to maintain dignity despite difficulties
You will stand the test of time
Asserting that the listener will endure despite hardships
When you're all shot up in your head and dead
Describing a state of mental distress and potential demise
Don't count on me to pray for your wretched soul
Refusing to offer support or empathy in a troubled state
I'll let you burn in the deepest level of hell
Expressing a lack of compassion, wishing suffering for the listener
I'll, let you burn
Repeating the refusal to aid or sympathize
I know you will fall
Reiterating the anticipation of the listener's downfall
But you don't have be the one to lose it all
Encouraging the listener to avoid losing everything despite the predicted fall (repeated from line 16)
Keep your head held high
Advising to maintain dignity despite difficulties (repeated from line 17)
You will stand the test of time
Asserting that the listener will endure despite hardships (repeated from line 18)
