Bathed in Blood: A Descent into Guilt and Redemption
Lyrics
So take me down and watch me burn in hell
Expressing a willingness to face consequences and endure suffering.
I've splintered and broken each line that I'm thrown in
Feeling shattered and damaged by experiences and challenges encountered.
For all I've done I know it serves me well
Acknowledging that the consequences are deserved based on past actions.
And I've tried resisting but nobody's listening
Struggling to resist or oppose something, but feeling unheard or unnoticed.
Reliving everything again
Revisiting and reliving past experiences or memories.
Feeding the demons in my head
Dealing with inner demons and negative thoughts.
Watching as everything goes red
Witnessing a situation escalate, possibly filled with anger or danger.
I know I deserve it I've never been perfect
Accepting the consequences, admitting imperfection.
Further from god
Feeling distant or disconnected from a higher power or morality.
Bathed in the blood
Immersed or tainted by the consequences of harm or violence.
Of the innocent
Referencing the impact on innocent individuals.
So take me down and watch me burn in hell
Reiterating the willingness to face punishment and suffering.
I've splintered and broken each line that I'm thrown in
Highlighting further emotional and psychological damage.
For all I've done I know it serves me well
Recognizing that consequences are deserved for actions.
And I've tried resisting but nobody's listening
Expressing frustration at being ignored or not heard.
Living this life inside an empty shell
Feeling emotionally vacant, living an unfulfilling existence.
I am but a token, I'm worthless and broken
Perceiving oneself as insignificant and fractured.
Don't fucking lie and say you wish me well
Rejecting false expressions of goodwill or concern.
Fire the kill shot, leave me to rot
Suggesting a desire for a decisive, final blow or action.
Scratch and claw as you're reaching your end
Struggling desperately as a situation approaches its conclusion.
Pray for heavens gate
Pleading for a positive outcome or salvation.
Your faith has been misplaced this time my friend
Claiming that faith or trust has been misplaced.
Bathing in gods hate
Experiencing the negative consequences of divine anger.
Return to the earth
Returning to a state of the earth, possibly referencing death.
Six feet in the dirt
Being buried six feet under, symbolizing death and finality.
Thin ice was always what I'm walking on
Navigating a precarious and risky situation, always on the edge.
Your body in the ground I dreamed to someday walk upon
Dreaming of a scenario where the perpetrator faces consequences.
Blood spills as you speak your last words
Describing a violent or intense moment with spilled blood and final words.
A shrill voice calls out I am the curse
Introducing a shrill voice claiming to be a curse or harbinger of doom.
