The Fight for Peace
Echoes of Struggle: Unveiling the Layers of The Fight for Peace
Lyrics
woke up suddenly, was dreamin
Woke up abruptly from a dream.
the shadow walls were closing in
Feeling trapped as if surrounded by shadowy walls.
and far away the world was shrinking
Perception of the world shrinking in the distance.
the mouth is dry, the blood is thin
Experiencing physical symptoms like dry mouth and thin blood, possibly stress-related.
I look into the darkened corner
Gazing into a dark corner.
into the deepest black I stare
Intensely staring into profound darkness.
and when the street noise turns to silence
When external noise fades, a mysterious presence is felt.
a strange shape whispers I know youre there
A strange shape whispers, acknowledging the observer's presence.
I cant remember why Im hiding
Loss of memory regarding the reason for hiding.
and my green vest is dark with sweat
The speaker is physically affected, with a dark, sweaty vest.
I wonder are they looking for me
Contemplating whether someone is searching for them.
I wonder have they found me yet
Concern about being discovered.
