The Midnight Hours
Embracing Midnight: Navigating the Toll of an Awful World
Lyrics
Do you ever close your eyes and sleep
Reflecting on the act of sleeping and shutting off from the world.
Is this really okay
Questioning if the current state of affairs is truly acceptable or alright.
I'll never go but the bad healing shows
Expressing that the emotional wounds persist despite not leaving.
It shows
Emphasizing the visibility or manifestation of these emotional scars.
It shows
-I see this all the time
Observing a recurring pattern or situation frequently.
When I close my eyes
Linking the visualization of the emotional pain when closing the eyes.
The midnight hours take their toll on me
Referencing how late hours impact and weigh heavily on the individual.
Is there anyone who cares
Seeking acknowledgment or concern from others.
Is there anywhere you'd rather be
Questioning if there's a preferable place or situation for oneself.
This awful world takes it's toll on me
Expressing the taxing nature of the world's negativity on personal well-being.
Is there anyone out there
Inquiring about the presence of understanding or support from someone.
Is there anyone else I could be
Contemplating alternative versions of self or identity.
This awful world echoes in eternity
Highlighting how the negativity of the world reverberates indefinitely.
I see the signs
Noticing indications or signals, possibly related to the aforementioned struggles.
Eyes open
Being attentive and alert to surroundings or situations.
Slowly release
Gradually letting go or freeing oneself from something suffocating or constraining.
I'm choking
Feeling as if suffocating or being overwhelmed.
Is there anyone who cares
Reiterating the desire for care or concern from others.
Is there anywhere you'd rather be
Questioning if there's a better place or situation to exist in.
This awful world takes it's toll on me
Reiterating the impact of the world's negativity on personal well-being.
Is there anyone out there
Seeking connection or understanding from someone outside oneself.
Is there anyone else I could be
Contemplating alternative identities or possibilities.
This awful world echoes in eternity
Stressing the enduring resonance of the world's negativity.
When I said I'm fine
Claiming to be alright or fine despite underlying struggles.
I didn't lose my mind
Asserting that mental stability hasn't been compromised despite challenges.
This awful world takes it's toll on me
Reiterating the impact of the world's negativity on personal well-being.
The claws of time swing me round and round
Symbolizing the relentless and cyclical nature of time's effects.
I breathe out
Exhaling, possibly indicating a moment of release or relief.
I breathe out
Repeating the act of exhaling, potentially emphasizing a need for relief.
