Lyrics
Peace is what they tell me
Peace is presented as an external suggestion or expectation.
Love am I unholy
The speaker questions if their love is considered impure or sinful.
Lies are what they tell me
Others feed the speaker with falsehoods or deceit.
Despise you that control me
The speaker expresses disdain for those who exert influence or authority over them.
The peace is dead in my soul
The speaker feels a lack of inner tranquility.
I have blamed the reasons for
The speaker attributes the demise of peace to external factors.
My intentions poor
The speaker associates their poor intentions with the loss of peace.
Yes I'm the one who
The speaker acknowledges responsibility for their actions.
The only one who
The speaker claims to be the sole individual continuing despite challenges.
Would carry on this far
A declaration of determination to persevere.
Torn, I'm filthy
The speaker feels damaged and impure.
Born in my own misery
The speaker was metaphorically born into their own suffering.
Stole all that you gave me
The speaker believes others took away everything they were given.
Control you claim you save me
The speaker questions the effectiveness of claimed control by others.
The peace is dead in my soul
Reiteration of the absence of inner peace.
I have blamed the reasons for
External factors are blamed again for the loss of peace.
My intentions poor
The speaker links their poor intentions with the absence of peace.
Yes I'm the one who
The speaker admits responsibility for their actions.
The only one who
Reaffirmation of being the only one continuing despite challenges.
Would carry on this far
A restatement of determination to persevere.
Peace in my head
Peace is sought within the speaker's mind.
Love in my head
Love is sought within the speaker's mind.
Lies lies lies lies in my head.
The speaker acknowledges the prevalence of lies in their thoughts.
The peace is dead in my soul
Reiteration of the lack of inner peace.
I have blamed the reasons for
External reasons are still held responsible for the absence of peace.
My intentions poor
The speaker associates poor intentions with the loss of peace.
Yes I'm the one who
The speaker acknowledges responsibility for their actions.
The only one who
Reaffirmation of being the only one continuing despite challenges.
Would carry on this far
Restatement of determination to persevere.
The peace is dead in my soul
Reiteration of the absence of inner peace.
I have blamed the reasons for
External factors are again blamed for the loss of peace.
My intentions poor
The speaker links their poor intentions with the absence of peace.
Yes I'm the one who
The speaker admits responsibility for their actions.
The only one who
Reaffirmation of being the only one continuing despite challenges.
Would carry on this far
Final declaration of determination to persevere.
