Lyrics
come inside, safe from the sun
Come inside, seeking refuge from the harsh sun.
for a moment
A temporary escape or respite.
you can’t hide who you’ve become
It's impossible to conceal the true nature of oneself.
i should have known
A realization of missed awareness or understanding.
life turned your eyes into stone
Life experiences have hardened your emotions.
you scrape through these dog days alone
Navigating through difficult times alone.
oh, true defeat
An acknowledgment of genuine failure.
comes naturally
True defeat is an inherent, unavoidable outcome.
when every waking hour is like a bad dream
Enduring every waking moment feels like a distressing nightmare.
cut the dead weight from your chest
Removing burdens or negative influences from your heart.
let the sun set
Allowing the day to end, suggesting a new beginning.
back up slowly from the ledge
Step away cautiously from a precarious situation.
it’s not over yet
Despite difficulties, the journey is not concluded.
you never had a real way out
No genuine escape route was available.
you’re bound by the hand you were dealt
Bound by the circumstances inherited since birth.
straight from the crib to the belt
A metaphor for a life path dictated from an early age.
oh, true defeat
Reiteration of the acceptance of genuine defeat.
comes naturally
True defeat is an intrinsic and unavoidable aspect of life.
when every waking hour is like a bad dream
Every waking moment feels like a nightmarish experience.
