One Last Encore
One Last Encore: Battling Inner Demons
Lyrics
Almost falling apart. It's the day I truly realize (that)
Expressing a feeling of almost breaking down or falling apart, realizing a difficult truth.
It's all hard to admit, I'm nearly close to commit
Admitting the difficulty in facing the truth and being close to committing suicide.
A suicide, but I'm tougher than I thought
Asserting inner strength, being tougher than initially perceived.
My mind cannot see what I have to hold on to
Struggling to see reasons to hold on to life or maintain mental stability.
I denied the truth : my roads are crossing
Denying the reality, realizing that life paths are intersecting or conflicting.
I don't want to be a lost cause
Expressing a desire not to be seen as a hopeless case.
On my life, I wish I could start to rebuild
Wishing for a chance to rebuild life despite internal brokenness.
But I'm broken inside
Acknowledging emotional and mental damage.
The rage is down to my bones, forgetting all of my falls
Feeling deep anger in the bones but trying to forget past failures.
It's like the end
Expressing a sense of finality or conclusion.
Carrying the world on my shoulders, (I'd) love to close that folder
Metaphorically carrying the weight of the world, desiring closure.
I can't pretend no more
Unable to pretend anymore, facing reality.
Going down for more, my chest is so sore
Descending into a state of despair, physical pain.
It's closing again, epiphanies again, I'm broken but I don't feel the same
Experiencing repeated realizations, feeling broken but different.
I'm supposed to be the rock made of metal, to be stable, maybe I'm not able
Expected to be strong and stable, questioning personal capability.
But maybe it's just all in my head, if I stand proud again, I will just prevail
Speculating on whether the struggle is psychological, hoping for resilience.
The rage is down to my bones, forgetting all of my falls
Reiterating deep-seated rage, attempting to forget past mistakes.
It's like the end
Reiterating a sense of finality or conclusion.
Carrying the world on my shoulders, (I'd) love to close that folder
Continuing to carry the burden, desiring to close a painful chapter.
I can't pretend no more
Unable to pretend anymore, confronting reality.
The light is down on my core, can I have one last encore
Expressing a desire for one last positive experience before the end.
Before the end
Anticipating an impending conclusion.
I'd like to feel it all burn, I will not fucking return
Expressing a wish to feel intense emotions before a final departure.
To this place of hate no more
Rejecting a return to a place of hatred.
Resigned to take my old life back, without any regrets, without a russian roulette
Resigned to reclaim an old life without regrets or risky behaviors.
It's now a fact, I made a pact that I'll carry on to live
Making a commitment to carry on living despite challenges.
The rage is down to my bones, forgetting all of my falls
Reiterating deep-seated rage, trying to forget past mistakes.
It's not the end
Asserting that it's not the absolute end.
Carrying the world on my shoulders, (I'd) love to see them get older
Continuing to carry the burden, desiring to witness others' growth.
I can't pretend no more
Unable to pretend anymore, facing reality.
The light is down on my core, and I have one last encore
Expressing a desire for one last positive experience before the end.
Before the end
Anticipating an impending conclusion.
I'd like to feel it all burn, I will not fucking return
Reiterating a wish to feel intense emotions before a final departure.
