Wounded
Embracing Darkness: Cutting Ties with Self-Despair
Lyrics
Why do I feel worthless
Expressing a sense of self-worthlessness, questioning one's value.
Maybe I deserve this
Suggesting a belief that the speaker deserves negative feelings or circumstances.
Day after day
Highlighting the repetitiveness of the struggle or situation.
Still suck in the same frame
Stuck in a cycle or pattern without progress.
Brittle bones, wearing thin
Describing a fragile and weak state, both physically and emotionally.
Bleeding just to feel again
Engaging in self-destructive behaviors to feel something.
Time after time
Emphasizing the recurrence of challenging experiences.
Trapped inside my own mind
Feeling confined and trapped within one's own thoughts.
Do you know what's it's like
Posing a question about understanding the internal struggles.
Living inside this skin
Describing the difficulty of living with oneself.
Tearing open a smile
Creating a metaphorical image of hiding true emotions behind a smile.
And never let another in
Being hesitant to open up to others and show vulnerability.
I'm a letdown
Acknowledging a sense of disappointment to others.
I'm a loser
Identifying with feelings of being a failure.
Constantly beside myself
Expressing a constant state of inner turmoil and conflict.
I'm not a man of virtue
Rejecting the notion of being a virtuous or morally upright person.
Contemplating with evil intentions
Contemplating negative and harmful thoughts or actions.
Realizing that there's no salvation
Realizing that there may be no redemption or escape from the current state.
Abandon me
Expressing a desire or expectation of being abandoned by others.
I'm a waste of time
Labeling oneself as a waste of time, possibly feeling burdensome.
Soon you'll see
Anticipating that others will eventually recognize the speaker's shortcomings.
This is all I'll ever be
Acceptance of a perceived unchanging and negative identity.
Separated, torn apart
Describing a sense of being emotionally and physically torn apart.
There's nothing left of me
Conveying a feeling of emptiness or loss of self.
Take what you need and let me fucking be
Requesting others to take what they need and leave the speaker alone.
Black out my sight
Expressing a desire to block out or avoid seeing certain things.
Let there be no light
Seeking darkness, possibly as a metaphor for a desire for peace or escape.
