Molotov Dreams: Liberation in Flames
Lyrics
With my back to the wall you've somehow pinned me up against.
Feeling cornered and trapped against the wall by external forces.
Fingernails in the palms of these tightly clenched fists.
Intense frustration or anger, expressed through clenched fists.
And I'm somewhere in between a held tongue and a curse.
Torn between holding back words and expressing a curse.
Or I could keep it inside, and hide it.
Contemplating keeping emotions inside and concealing them.
In hopes my avoidance will cure it.
Choosing avoidance in the hope that it will resolve the issue.
But there's no time for this.
Feeling a sense of urgency, implying there's no time for delay.
Or I could keep it inside, and hide it.
Reiterating the internal conflict of hiding emotions for resolution.
In hopes my avoidance will cure it.
Repeating the hope that avoiding the issue will lead to a cure.
But there's no time for this again.
Emphasizing the lack of time to deal with the internal struggle.
So light it up and let it fly away.
Suggesting a destructive release of emotions, using a Molotov Cocktail metaphor.
A Molotov Cocktail, my dreams symbolized in flames.
Symbolizing dreams going up in flames, possibly due to destructive actions.
Put your back to them all, I swear they're not getting you there.
Encouraging defiance against external pressures and influences.
A blueprint for the outside, when it's cold out there.
Describing a plan for self-preservation in challenging circumstances.
It's not clear, but I refuse to breathe from these machines again.
Refusing reliance on artificial support or filters to avoid pain.
You all depend on the filters that keep you away
Others depend on filters to distance themselves from pain and praise.
From the pain when you cry, and the praises you sang.
Highlighting the artificial nature of the filters that shield from reality.
It's not real so I refuse to breathe from these machines again.
Reiterating the refusal to rely on artificial means to avoid pain.
So light it up and let it fly away.
Repeating the destructive release of emotions, emphasizing urgency.
A Molotov Cocktail, my dreams symbolized in flames.
Reiteration of dreams going up in flames through a Molotov Cocktail metaphor.
And I won't ask a lot from you, I just pray that the masks will come unglued.
Expressing a simple prayer for authenticity and unmasking.
And we're not yours, we'll be with you soon.
Asserting independence and the inevitability of being with oneself.
I hope we can be with you soon.
Expressing a desire for connection or reunion with someone.
So light it up and let it fly away.
Repeating the destructive release of emotions, highlighting urgency.
A Molotov Cocktail, my dreams symbolized in flames.
Reiteration of dreams going up in flames through a Molotov Cocktail metaphor.
And I won't ask a lot from you, I just pray that the masks will come unglued.
Expressing a simple prayer for authenticity and unmasking.
And we're not yours, we'll be with you soon.
Asserting independence and the inevitability of being with oneself.
And this routine feels like a knife, entering my back then down my spine.
Describing a routine that feels like a metaphorical knife in the back.
I've withstood the sting for long enough, and I'm prepared to discard it.
Enduring pain and readiness to discard the source of suffering.
So light it up and let it go away. So light it up and let it fly away.
Repeating the destructive release of emotions, emphasizing letting go.
Fly away.
Expressing a desire for freedom or escape.
