Nothing
Embracing Shadows: A Journey Through Inner Struggles and Redemption
Lyrics
Oh, every time I try to fall asleep
Expressing difficulty falling asleep.
I drift away
Experiencing a drifting feeling when attempting to sleep.
It's always something on my mind
Constant mental preoccupation or distraction.
Or nothing at all
Feeling a lack of significant thoughts.
Every time I try to run away
Encountering obstacles or challenges when trying to escape.
I run out of luck
Running out of luck in endeavors.
I feel like something's missing
Sensing a void or something missing in life.
I feel like nothing matters
Feeling a sense of insignificance or lack of importance.
When no one seems to listen
Perceiving a lack of attention or understanding from others.
I feel like I don't matter
Experiencing a sense of personal insignificance.
Been climbing up this ladder
Struggling to make progress in life.
That never seems to end
A sense of endless struggle or effort without results.
And I wanna close this chapter
Expressing a desire to move on from a difficult period.
And finally start again
Desiring a fresh start in life.
(Finally start again)
Reiterating the desire to start anew.
See I've gone by
Reflecting on the passage of time.
Got no time but I, still try
Feeling time constraints but still making an effort.
I'll run by with no lights
Moving forward despite challenges and uncertainties.
Searching for you far away
Searching for something meaningful or someone special.
Closing all that's left of me
Closing off parts of oneself for self-preservation.
There's parts of me I don't know anymore
Expressing self-discovery and change.
I've hung up signs and I locked all the doors
Symbolizing closing off emotionally.
There's only traces in my memories
Only faint memories remain of the person one used to be.
The person I am is not
Addressing a divergence between self-perception and others' memories.
How you still remember me
Building emotional barriers for self-protection.
I built the cage and I shut myself in
Imprisoning oneself emotionally to learn from past mistakes.
So I could learn from the things that I did
Acknowledging negative self-perception resulting from isolation.
But it only made me hate me
Negative consequences of self-imposed isolation.
I'm turning into all the monsters
Becoming like the hurtful influences from the past.
That you made me i get upset so easily
Expressing heightened sensitivity and frustration.
I think everyone is mean to me, yeah
Feeling misunderstood and mistreated by others.
So I've been trying to change
Attempting to change one's perspective.
My point of view
Observing diverse behaviors in different situations.
Everyone acts so differently
People behaving differently under mental stress.
When they reach there limit's mentally, yeah
Observing varied reactions to mental strain.
Some try to run
Different coping mechanisms under pressure.
While others let it run it's course
Choosing to confront challenges or letting them unfold.
See I've gone by
Reiterating the passage of time and the effort to move forward.
Got no time but I, still try
Continuing efforts despite limited time.
I'll run by with no lights
Moving forward without clear direction or guidance.
Searching for you far away
Searching for meaning or someone important in the distance.
Closing all that's left of me
Closing off aspects of oneself for self-preservation.
