Lyrics
There are times
Reflecting on specific moments
We forget to think
Oblivious to thoughtful consideration
Years of oblivion
Extended periods of neglect
Seems like eternity
Feels like an endless duration
There are times
Instances when direction is lost
We get lost
Wandering without purpose
Forget to believe
Fail to maintain faith in human goodness
In humanity
Lack of belief in humanity
Souls seem to quiver
Inner turmoil, emotional unrest
The world's about to collapse
A sense that the world is on the brink of collapse
We got every cell on stand-by
Every cell in a state of readiness
Waiting for relapse
Awaiting a relapse or downturn
There are times
Periods when composure is lost
Can't hold it together
Unable to maintain control
Everything
Everything goes awry
Turns out wrong
Unfavorable outcomes
There are times
Times when conflicts arise
We're fighting wars
Engaged in difficult struggles or battles
It's damn hard to get along
Challenges in finding harmony
Flesh growing weaker
Physical strength diminishing
Legs don't seem to stand
Difficulty in standing firm
We got every cell on stand-by
Every cell prepared and waiting for instructions
Waiting for command
Awaiting a decisive command
We know that our death will be soon
Awareness of imminent death
It's what we achieved with our daily gloom
Achieved through daily despair
No hope for the future in this concrete room
No optimism for the future in a confined space
We're now aware that this is our doom
Recognition that doom is inevitable
So if this is real
Contemplating the reality of the situation
I better kneel
Expressing submission or surrender
I'm doing my part
Fulfilling one's role or duty
'Cause everything that's left of me
What remains is a resilient, unyielding core
Is a skeleton of steel
A metaphorical representation of inner strength
