Broken Skyline
Broken Skyline: Embracing Chaos, Defying Promises
Lyrics
I cannot be chained
I refuse to be restrained or controlled.
On fire, I'm a burning train
I am intensely passionate and unstoppable like a burning train.
Of all your nightmares
I embody the worst fears you have.
I'm the worst
Your deepest fears and nightmares are personified in me.
Spill your guts
Reveal your innermost feelings and secrets.
In the second verse
This is a continuation or repetition of the idea of sharing emotions.
So scream if I get too close
If I come too close, express your fear through screaming.
I'll put a Chinese bangle around your throat
A metaphorical threat with the mention of a Chinese bangle around the throat.
Let it all come down now, you can finally see
Let all defenses fall; now you can truly understand the situation.
The only one leaving alive tonight is me
In this confrontation, I will be the only one who survives.
So say goodnight
Bid farewell, possibly to a relationship or a certain phase.
This broken skyline
Reference to a damaged or disrupted urban skyline, symbolizing emotional turmoil.
Is not enough to make me cry
The damaged skyline doesn't evoke sadness in me.
And the sun will fade like empty promises your heart made
The sun setting mirrors the fading of promises made by the heart.
Promises you could never keep
Your heart made promises that couldn't be kept.
But I will be ok
Despite the turmoil, I will be fine.
It's not that deep
The situation is not as emotionally intense as it may seem.
Fall asleep
A shift to a more serene state, possibly referring to moving on.
Ooh I love the smell of make-up and tears
Enjoying the aftermath, even if it involves makeup-stained tears.
Too tired to end it all
Experiencing fatigue but not motivated enough to end everything.
You are a broken vase
A metaphorical portrayal of the listener as a broken vase.
Shattered on the floor
The listener's emotional state is shattered on the floor.
And I am stepping on your pieces
I am intentionally causing harm or disregarding the listener's feelings.
A thousand bloodied footprints as I leave
Leaving a lasting and damaging impact as I walk away.
So say goodnight
Repetition of saying goodnight, emphasizing the finality of the situation.
This broken skyline
Reiteration of the damaged skyline as a central theme.
Is not enough to make me cry
The damaged skyline doesn't bring tears to my eyes.
And the sun will fade like empty promises your heart made
The sun setting symbolizes the end of heart-made promises.
Promises you could never keep
Reiteration of promises that couldn't be fulfilled.
But I will be ok
Despite the emotional turmoil, I will be fine.
It's not that deep
The emotional depth is not as profound as it may seem.
Say goodnight
A final call to say goodnight, emphasizing closure.
Say goodnight
Repetition of saying goodnight for emphasis.
So say goodnight
A final repetition of bidding farewell to the damaged skyline.
This broken skyline
Emphasizing that the damaged skyline doesn't elicit tears.
Is not enough to make me cry
The emotional impact of the damaged skyline is not profound.
And the sun will fade like empty promises your heart made
The sun setting symbolizes the fading of unfulfilled promises.
Promises you could never keep
Reiteration of promises made by the heart that were never kept.
