Broken Glass
Shattered Identity: Unveiling the Truth in Empire Springs' Broken Glass
Lyrics
Nameless, and unknown now
Feeling unrecognized and unnoticed presently.
I'm just not the same anymore
Expressing a fundamental change in self.
Walls coming down and my identity's not left to claim
Sense of losing personal identity as barriers collapse.
Is this really how it ends?
Questioning if this is the conclusion of a situation.
I feel I'm not too good at pretending
Struggling with the act of pretending or hiding true feelings.
So let's just sit here
Suggesting a pause or stillness in the face of uncertainty.
Everything I thought I knew was a lie
Realization that prior beliefs were falsehoods.
And it's weighing me down
Feeling burdened by the weight of these realizations.
Dishonest
Describing a sense of deceit or lack of honesty.
Do you remember what you thought I could be?
Asking if someone recalls past potential or aspirations.
Because I want to believe
Expressing a desire to hold onto hope or belief.
Is this the end of my desire
Wondering if this marks the end of personal longing.
Your afflictions
Referring to another's suffering or burdens.
With my atrophy I'm fading out
Feeling a decline or wasting away, fading from existence.
And I don't know just how to cope with my convictions
Struggling with reconciling beliefs or principles.
But my glass is wearing thin
Metaphor for resilience fading, losing strength.
And I can't see straight
Experiencing a loss of clarity or focus.
The current pulls me back into the cycle
Feeling trapped in a repetitive pattern or cycle.
Is this all that you wanted?
Questioning if current circumstances are someone else's desire or intent.
I feel I'm not too good at pretending
Reiterating difficulty in pretending or hiding true emotions.
So let's just sit here and repeat this all again
Proposing a cycle of revisiting painful truths.
Everything I thought I knew was a lie
Reaffirming the disillusionment of prior beliefs.
Dishonest
Reiterating a sense of dishonesty or deception.
Do you remember what you thought I could be?
Asking for recollection of past perceptions or expectations.
Because I want to believe
Expressing a desire to maintain belief or hope.
And we're halfway down
Reached a midpoint in a situation, possibly implying progression or descent.
You always said that this is what you wanted
Highlighting a discrepancy between past desires and present absence.
But now the truth is out you're not around
Revealing a contradiction between past assurances and current reality.
You always said that you would tell me when I've gone too far
Recalling a promise of guidance or warning if boundaries are crossed.
So have I gone too far?
Questioning the extent of personal actions and their consequences.
Do you remember what you thought I could be?
Reiterating the inquiry about past expectations or beliefs.
I want to believe
Expressing a continued desire to hold onto belief or hope.
