Tower of Regret
Dancing Amid Regrets: Defying Judgment in Growth
Lyrics
Empty mind and empty words
Expressing a lack of thoughts and meaningful words.
Your rubber bullets they don’t hurt too much
Indicating that criticisms or attacks don't have a significant impact.
Try and shoot me down you’ll see
Challenging the speaker to attempt to bring them down.
I can dance quite endlessly and you’ll watch
Confidently asserting the ability to dance without being affected by judgment.
And what’s it like in your crying tower of regret?
Picturing a metaphorical tower where regret resides and questioning the experience within.
Well it must be nice stamping on the flowers as they bloom...
Suggesting a detached and callous attitude, enjoying destruction or negativity.
Older skin and older bones
Highlighting the aging process of the physical body.
Your body grows but it leaves your soul behind
Emphasizing a disconnection between physical and spiritual growth.
You’re always looking down on me but I am growing constantly in time
Responding to being looked down upon, asserting personal growth despite external judgment.
And what’s it like in your crying tower of regret?
Revisiting the theme of the regretful tower and questioning its nature.
Well it must be nice stamping on the flowers as they bloom...
Reiterating the enjoyment of negativity or destruction amidst beauty.
Hold onto your discrepancies
Advising to keep one's flaws and differences, rejecting unwanted advice.
For I am not in need of your advice
Asserting independence and self-sufficiency, refusing external guidance.
Your tired eyes look on and say
Acknowledging external criticism but asserting personal direction.
That I am going wrong but I’m going somewhere at least
Responding to the criticism by stating that progress is being made, even if not in the expected direction.
And what’s it like in your crying tower of regret?
Repeating the inquiry about the regretful tower and its nature.
Well it must be nice stamping on the flowers as they bloom...
Reiterating the pleasure derived from negativity despite the beauty around.
