Lyrics

Smiles that'll disappear with the morning sun

Anticipation and happiness that are temporary, disappearing with the dawn.

Miles of laps that we were made to run

A metaphor for the challenges and struggles inherent in life's journey.

And when the lights dim, I think about myself with no one else around

Reflecting on solitude when the external influences fade away.

And I believe there's a way to describe the silence as sound

Belief in finding a way to express silence as a form of meaningful sound.

And it's fading , so let's smother it, 'cause it won't burn out

Acknowledging the fading of something and the desire to preserve it.

And I was taken by the arms that dealt the clout

Being affected or influenced by a powerful force or impact.

And you will look to the clouds and you will wear the crown!

A sense of empowerment, looking to the future with confidence and authority.


'Cause it's gonna be a long time

Expressing that achieving a goal or understanding will take a considerable amount of time.

A long time till I get what is mine

Reiteration of the time required to obtain what belongs to the speaker.

Yeah, it's gonna be a long time

Continuation of the theme, emphasizing the prolonged duration of the journey.

A long time till I understand what is mine

Highlighting the extended period until the speaker comprehends what is rightfully theirs.


Now all it's gonna' take, is just one cell

Suggesting that a significant change or resolution may only require a small effort.

I said if he's got the courage, I'm gonna' see him in hell

Expressing a willingness to confront challenges and adversaries, even in the face of danger.

Now God I never lost you, you lost me

A declaration about the relationship with God, indicating a feeling of abandonment.


And I'm hollow as the heart that fell to my feet

Describing a deep sense of emptiness comparable to a fallen heart.

And I believe there's a way to shut things you don't need out

Belief in the ability to exclude unnecessary elements from one's life.

And I believe that agony is the sound

Viewing agony as a form of audible expression.

I was taken by the arm that dealt the clout

Repetition of being influenced by a force that had a significant impact.

I will look to the clouds and figure that my time's now

Looking towards the future with the belief that it is the speaker's time to shine.
