Dead and Buried
Embrace the Grave: Damnation City's Ode to Liberation from Mental Chains
Lyrics
From the mental prison is hard to escape
Escaping from the confines of one's own mental struggles is exceptionally challenging.
they keep you locked in
There's a persistent sense of being confined or restricted by external forces.
With invisible chains
These constraints are intangible, yet strongly bind and restrict freedom.
Social paradigms
Societal norms and beliefs that shape behaviors.
Poor ideologies created to indoctrinate
Weak and flawed ideologies designed to instill specific beliefs.
respect the imposed rules
There's an expectation to abide by rules imposed by authority.
Follow the commom sense
Follow conventional wisdom or face negative consequences.
Or be a goddamn loser
Not adhering to societal norms brands one as a failure.
Despots in the command take your life away
Leaders or authoritarian figures control and dictate lives.
megalomaniacs hunger for more power
Those in power have an insatiable thirst for greater control.
digging the world's grave
The actions of those in power contribute to the destruction of the world.
Dead - since the day you were born
Feeling emotionally or spiritually dead from birth.
and buried - rotting till the end of times
Metaphorically buried, decaying indefinitely.
living just to serve
Existing solely to fulfill others' demands without purpose.
meaningless existence
An existence lacking significance or meaning.
thrown ones against each others
People pitted against each other without reason or understanding.
blinded by false promises
Blinded by false hope or assurances.
They want you to believe all this shit is right
There's a push to accept the flawed system as morally right.
just be a good sheep
Encouragement to conform without questioning.
they will lead you to paradise
Promises of reward for compliance with authority.
Spend the life trying to find meaning in chaos
Life is spent searching for meaning in a chaotic world.
but in the end you realize you’ll only find peace
Only finding peace in death, implying an end to struggles.
When you are dead and buried
Peace is ultimately found only in death and burial.
