Demons Looming Over You
Shadows and Blades: Confronting Inner Demons in Falconshield's Tale
Lyrics
Used to be alive, I can still recall
Reflecting on a past when alive, recalling memories.
Before the war, before the fall
Referring to a time before a war and a fall from grace.
Went to the other side, and then back again
Experiencing a transformation, going to the other side and back.
But I have changed
Acknowledging personal change.
And things won't be the same
Anticipating that things won't return to the way they were.
This mask is a part of me
Describing a mask as an integral part, possibly symbolic of a facade.
The nightmares made me see
Linking nightmares to a distorted perception of reality.
My blades are cutting through the night
Using blades metaphorically to navigate challenges in the dark.
Now I see shadows in the light
Observing shadows even in the light, suggesting internal struggles.
There are demons looming over you
Noting the presence of demons affecting others negatively.
They drag you down when you're feeling high
Describing how demons bring people down during moments of joy.
Telling you lies and distort the truth
Highlighting demons' influence in spreading lies and distorting truth.
They're as rеal as you and I
Acknowledging the reality of demons, emphasizing their existence.
There are dеmons feeding on your fear
Pointing out demons thriving on others' fears.
They take you whole when your will succumb
Indicating that demons consume individuals when their will weakens.
I know their names, I see them clear
Claiming knowledge of demons' identities and clear perception.
So what have I become?
Pondering the speaker's own transformation due to demons.
You took the easy way, but I was proud of you
Recognizing someone's choice of an easier path but feeling pride.
I let you down, you ran me through
Admitting to letting someone down and facing consequences.
My faith is spent, given a new point of view
Expressing a change in faith and gaining a new perspective.
Do I repent? I'm punished living this truth
Contemplating repentance and living with the consequences of truth.
I let my spirit reap
Allowing one's spirit to experience consequences.
But the masks are mine to keep
Asserting ownership of masks as symbols of identity.
My blades are cutting through the night
Reiterating the use of blades to navigate challenges in the dark.
Now I see shadows in the light
Reinforcing the presence of shadows even in the light.
