Reckoning: Unveiling True Faces
Lyrics
There comes a time when we all have to die
Reflecting on the inevitability of death that everyone faces.
Just like anybody anywhere
Highlighting the universal nature of mortality.
If I had a dime for every time that you tried
Expressing frustration at repeated attempts, possibly in a relationship.
I swear I'd be a millionaire
Emphasizing the frequency of the mentioned attempts and the impact if compensated.
So come and get your kill, I'm waiting right over here
Challenging the other person to take action, suggesting confrontation.
You know it's me or you and I'm screaming
Acknowledging a life-threatening situation and a sense of urgency.
I, I, I, I
Repetition for emphasis, possibly indicating intensity or emotions.
I, I, I, I
-Now I know just who you really are
Claiming to have discovered the true nature of the other person.
I've let go, watching you fall apart
Letting go of the relationship and witnessing the other person's decline.
Talk, talk, talk but no one hears you now
Noting that the other person's words are ineffective or ignored.
I can't wait to tear your world apart
Expressing anticipation for causing chaos or destruction in the other person's life.
Stuck in your ways, you made the bed where you lay
Criticizing the other person for being stuck in their ways and facing consequences.
And you're not getting out of here
Indicating that escape or redemption is unlikely for the other person.
Sink my teeth in I'll breathe out all your sin
Metaphorically stating an intention to expose and confront the other person's flaws.
Oh it's gonna be everywhere
Anticipating the widespread impact of revealing the other person's sins.
So come and get your kill, I'm waiting right over here
Repeating the challenge and emphasizing the imminent confrontation.
You know it's me or you and I'm screaming
-I, I, I, I
Reiteration for emphasis, possibly expressing determination or defiance.
I, I, I, I
-Now I know just who you really are
Reaffirming the perceived revelation about the other person's true identity.
I've let go, watching you fall apart
Accepting the end of the relationship and observing the other person's deterioration.
Talk, talk, talk but no one hears you now
Noting the ineffectiveness of the other person's communication.
I can't wait to tear your world apart
Expressing eagerness for causing upheaval in the other person's life.
Now I know just who you really are
Reaffirming the understanding of the other person's true nature and the acceptance of the breakup.
I've let go, watching you fall apart
-Talk, talk, talk but no one hears you now
Highlighting the lack of attention or impact of the other person's words.
I can't wait to tear your world apart
Anticipating the disruption of the other person's life.
And if you're gonna shoot me down you better run from your shot
Warning the other person about potential consequences if they try to harm the speaker.
And if you're gonna take me down you better bring what you've got
Challenging the other person to bring their best effort if they intend to cause harm.
Got
