Echo Chamber
Battling Inner Demons: Struggling with Echo Chambers
Lyrics
I gotta calm down
The speaker feels the need to calm down.
Nothing here to see just some voices in a cloud
There's nothing significant to observe externally; the voices the speaker hears are within their mind or thoughts.
I went to therapy and got some pills to sort it out
The speaker sought therapy and medication to address their issues.
My lady looked at me and said you gotta calm down kid
Someone close to the speaker advised them to calm down.
Yeah I wanna calm down
The speaker desires to calm down.
But all these echo chambers seem to be growing way too loud
The echo chambers, representing isolated opinions or beliefs, are becoming overwhelming for the speaker.
My medicines not working I wanna put people in the ground
The medication isn't effective, and the speaker feels a violent urge.
I need to bury that feeling now
The speaker wants to suppress or bury the intense emotion they're experiencing.
I gotta calm down
The urgency to calm down persists.
No god no devil just me
The speaker feels disconnected from external influences like God or the Devil.
Soaked in your blood running through your family tree
A sense of guilt or responsibility for a situation affecting generations.
I messed up bad again
The speaker acknowledges making a serious mistake once more.
Wish I could have been tamed by a capsule
Desiring control or restraint that could have come from a pill.
Tenebris Lupus
"Tenebris Lupus" translates to "Darkness Wolf," possibly indicating an inner struggle or darkness within.
In my head in my heart in my chapel
Feelings residing deeply within the speaker, akin to a chapel within them.
Away my mind goes
The speaker's mind wanders away from reality.
Away my mind goes and it goes
The mind consistently drifts away from reality.
I gotta calm down
Reiterating the need to calm down.
Maybe I'll rip my frown off and staple it upside down
Expressing a desire to change their demeanor or mood by forcibly altering their expression.
Wear it like a mask so I can please all of the crowds
Wanting to wear a façade to please others despite feeling internally unhappy.
Then I'll be like them just another happy clown (fuck)
Resisting conforming to societal expectations, feeling fake or insincere.
No I don't want to leave, but I don't wanna stay
Feeling conflicted about staying or leaving a situation.
Heaven is the goal but hell is where I pray
The speaker prays for heaven but feels trapped or stuck in a hellish situation.
No I don't want to leave, but I don't wanna stay
Reiteration of feeling torn between staying and leaving.
If I'm made in the image of God, why's the Devil look the same?
Questioning the similarity between their supposed godly nature and the Devil's appearance or influence.
I messed up bad again
Repeating acknowledgment of making a severe mistake.
Wish I could have been tamed by a capsule
Desiring control or restraint that could have come from a pill (repeated).
Tenebris Lupus
Repetition of "Tenebris Lupus" - the inner darkness or struggle.
In my head in my heart in my chapel
Internal conflict or struggles residing deeply within the speaker (repeated).
Away my mind goes (goes away and away and it goes)
The speaker's mind consistently drifts away from reality (repeated).
Away my mind goes and it goes
Reiterating the continuous drifting of the speaker's mind.
