We're Only Chasing Rabbits
Eternal Shadows: Deciphering the Depths of Compromise
Lyrics
With blurry speech
Expressing unclear or indistinct communication
Our hands are tied
Feeling restricted or limited
Voices are left unheard
Voices and opinions are not acknowledged or considered
Our conversations begin to burn
Interpersonal connections breaking down due to compromise
From a weight of compromise
Struggling with the burdens of compromise
The story remains unturned
An untold story remains unexplored
For the sake of time
Choices made for the efficiency of time
So cut the rope
Encouragement to sever ties or connections
Cover it with salt
Symbolic act of preserving or healing with salt
Wait and see where you lay
Observing the consequences of actions
In the undertow
Facing the powerful and overwhelming force of circumstances
Candles unburned left in snow
Unused potential or unfulfilled promises represented by unburned candles in the snow
With memories unknown
Recollections with missing or unclear details
No one stands tall underneath your shrine
No one stands out as admirable under your influence
Your pedestal falters with every line
A pedestal of admiration becomes unstable with each action
There is no grail from your war in hell
No reward or salvation from the struggles in a difficult situation
But you search the stars for light
Searching for guidance or hope in unlikely places
But much to your surprise
Discovering the fading of a once powerful force or passion
The fire is fading out
The intense situation is losing its intensity
The fire is faded out
The once fiery situation has completely lost its intensity
Cover it with salt
Repeating the act of preservation or healing with salt
Wait and see where you lay
Observing the consequences again after some time
In the undertow
Facing the overwhelming force again
Candles unburned left in snow
Unused potential or unfulfilled promises persist
With memories unknown
Recollections with missing or unclear details continue
Where do you run
Questioning direction and purpose
Where do you hide
Seeking refuge or escape
Gracefully biding time
Patiently waiting while facing challenges
As you stumble are you broken
Reflecting on personal struggles and potential brokenness
How do you go on
Coping with difficulties and moving forward
This isn't the way I left you
Not recognizing the current state compared to the past
Alone in the dark to hide
Isolation and concealment in darkness
Fighting shadows with stones
Fighting against intangible and elusive challenges
Just to make this your home
Struggling to create a sense of belonging
These faults would be my own
Accepting responsibility for personal flaws
We remain on borrowed time
Living on borrowed time or borrowed experiences
Cover it with salt
Repeating the act of preservation or healing with salt
Wait and see where you lay
Observing consequences again after some time
In the undertow
Facing the overwhelming force again
Candles unburned left in snow
Unused potential or unfulfilled promises persist
With memories unknown
Recollections with missing or unclear details continue
Where do you run
Questioning direction and purpose again
Where do you hide
Seeking refuge or escape again
Gracefully biding time
Patiently waiting while facing challenges again
As you stumble are you broken
Reflecting on personal struggles and potential brokenness again
How do you go on
Coping with difficulties and moving forward again
