Lyrics

Glory days

Reflecting on past glorious times

I've wasted them away

Regret for not making the most of those times

Looking forward to getting colder

Anticipation for colder and challenging times

A greeting card for the holidays

Comparing life to a holiday greeting card

Why do I always keep running towards nothing

Questioning a pattern of chasing unfulfilling goals

I threw my heart into a dark alley that no one goes

Investing emotions in an unnoticed, dark place


I've traveled so far

Physical and metaphorical distance traveled

But all I've done is come back home

Frustration at returning without progress

I can't explain where my light is

Uncertainty about one's own source of light

But I can sit back

Taking a moment to relax and contemplate

Fill my heart

Engaging in self-reflection and self-care

I'm lost like a child's mind caught on the fences

Feeling lost and vulnerable, like a child

And look at these holes in my jeans

Noticing and acknowledging personal flaws

They never brought me anything, no

Expressing disappointment in past choices


I stopped searching for the holy ghost

Abandoning the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment

'Cause I'm in hell

Feeling trapped or distressed, possibly in a difficult situation

If it's guts that I need

Willing to do anything, even morally questionable, for courage

I'll be an organ thief

Expressing a desire to forcefully take control

I'll tear you apart

Committing to tearing down obstacles or challenges

Tear you apart


Find me somewhere in the dark

Seeking identity or existence in obscurity

Find me somewhere in the dark

Find me somewhere in the lake

Searching for self in a metaphorical lake of challenges

I'm a stone sinking faster

Feeling weighed down and sinking in life's struggles

Makes my bones ache

Experiencing physical and emotional pain

Life skips me on the way

Sensing a lack of opportunities in life


I stopped searching for the holy ghost

Abandoning the quest for spiritual fulfillment

'Cause I'm in hell

Reiterating a feeling of being in a distressing situation

If it's guts that I need

Willingness to resort to drastic measures for strength

I'll be an organ thief

Committing to forcibly taking control

I'll tear you apart

Repeating the determination to overcome challenges

Tear you apart


I stopped searching for the holy ghost

Perceived continuation of a distressing existence

I'm already in hell

Emphasizing the sense of being in a difficult situation

If it's guts that I need

Reiterating a willingness to take extreme actions

I'll be an organ thief

Recommitting to forcefully taking control

I'll tear you apart

Repeating the commitment to overcome challenges

Tear you apart

Right from the start

Stating a sense of being born into difficulty or darkness

Right from the start

I was born in the dark
