Cascade
Embracing the Cascade: Unveiling the Depths of Inner Struggle
Lyrics
I'll burn down
I will face destruction or intense emotions.
With this cross that stands behind me
A symbolic cross represents something significant behind the person.
Stare at these words until they make some sense to me
Examining words, seeking understanding and meaning.
I don't know why I even try
Expressing uncertainty and questioning the purpose of effort.
Give in and accept it
Yield and embrace the situation or circumstance.
I don't know why I even care
Uncertain about caring but still considering it.
Give in and they'll bleed me dry
Surrendering will lead to emotional exhaustion.
I'll burn down with this cross that crucifies me
The cross becomes a source of personal suffering.
Down with this cross that drives the final nail Through my hand
The cross inflicts a final blow, symbolic of intense hardship.
I'll burn down with this cross those old convictions Once uttered but is that all they are
The cross embodies old beliefs, possibly now seen as lies.
A handful of lies
Old convictions revealed as a handful of lies.
A mouthful of words
Words spoken, but their impact is questionable.
Well I'll burn them all down
Commitment to destroying lies and false beliefs.
Then I'll burn down with them
Acceptance of consequences, even if it leads to destruction.
I'll burn down this false pretense
Rejecting false pretense and deception.
These lies
Lies and deceit that influence and harm.
Those words that drive me
Words causing emotional distress and pain.
That kill me
Words that lead to personal destruction.
Give in and accept it
Consider surrendering and accepting, but internal conflict persists.
But I can't
Resisting surrender at this moment.
Not now
Refusing to yield, especially at present.
I don't know why I even try
Uncertain about making an effort.
Give in and accept it
Considering surrendering and accepting despite uncertainty.
I don't know why I even care
Uncertain about caring but still contemplating it.
Give in and they'll bleed me dry
Surrendering will lead to emotional exhaustion.
I don't know why I even try
Uncertain about making an effort.
I don't know why I even care
Uncertain about caring but still contemplating it.
I don't know why I don't just flow with the tide
Questioning why not go along with prevailing circumstances.
But I can't
Resisting yielding, especially at present.
Not now
Refusing to yield, both now and in the future.
Not ever
Firm refusal to surrender, both now and forever.
The rise the fall
Acknowledging the cyclical nature of rise and fall.
Well I'll fall trickling down the cascade
Anticipating a gradual descent, a cascade of negative events.
Well I'll fall
Acknowledging the inevitability of a fall.
