In Shame
Unveiling the Shadows: Cloud Nothings' Powerful Reflection on Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Don't care about lying
Indifference towards dishonesty
If it's what I like and it feels right
Doing what's preferred and feeling justified
Don't care about hurting
Disregard for causing pain
If it's what I like and it turns to light
Doing what's preferred and it transforms into positivity
Just wanna have power
Desire for authority/control
And feel like I've done it right
Seeking validation for doing things right
Just wanna be stronger
Aspiring to be more powerful
Than anyone on any night
Striving to surpass anyone else at any time
Oh the mind, the life
Repetition emphasizing the satisfaction derived from this mindset
The mind, the life
-It feels so good to me
-The mind, the life
-The mind, the life
-It feels so good to me
-They won't remember my name
Fear of being forgotten and left alone with regret
I'll be alone in my shame
-They won't remember my name
-I'll be alone in my shame
-They won't remember my name
-I'll be alone in my shame
-They won't remember my name
-I'll be alone in my shame
-And nothing turns out right for this whole life
Feeling that nothing goes well throughout life
Don't care about lying
Reiteration of indifference towards moral consequences for personal satisfaction
If it's what I like and it feels right
-Don't care about hurting
-If it's what I like and it turns to light
-Just wanna have power
-And feel like I've done it right
-Just wanna be stronger
-Than anyone on any night
-Oh the mind, the life
Repetition emphasizing the personal gratification from this mindset
The mind, the life
-It feels so good to me
-The mind, the life
-The mind, the life
-It feels so good to me
-They won't remember my name
Continued fear of being forgotten and isolated due to shame
I'll be alone in my shame
-They won't remember my name
-I'll be alone in my shame
-They won't remember my name
-I'll be alone in my shame
-They won't remember my name
-I'll be alone in my shame
-'Cause nothing turns out right in this style of life
Belief that nothing goes right within this chosen way of living
They
(Single word likely refers to a subject or group)
They won't remember my name
Reiteration of fear of being forgotten and facing solitude due to shame
I'll be alone in my shame
-They won't remember my name
-I'll be alone in my shame
-They won't remember my name
-I'll be alone in my shame
-They won't remember my name
-I'll be alone in my shame
-'Cause nothing turns out right
Final reinforcement that nothing turns out positively within this lifestyle
