Escape the Chains of Folly: A Musical Journey of Reflection
Lyrics
As you crossed the room, I was all wrapped up in my cocoon
Feeling isolated or withdrawn in a personal space or state.
When you said hello, I had nowhere to run and I had nowhere to go
Being caught off guard, unable to escape or avoid interaction.
With a fool like you, I will say anything you want me to
Willingness to comply or adapt to please someone considered foolish.
With a fool like me, I'm amazed at how you take it all so seriously.
Surprised by how seriously the other person takes things despite being foolish themselves.
People come and people go, and people want to tell you just how much they know
Observing the transient nature of people and their desire to assert knowledge.
But I'm runnin' out of alibis, I got one thing left that I can't deny
Running out of excuses or justifications for a situation, acknowledging an undeniable truth.
Yes I'm doin' time, doin' time, and it won't be long 'til I cross that line
Feeling imprisoned or constrained, anticipating a boundary to be crossed soon.
Yes the day will come when it's time to go, you better get ready, 'cause now you know.
Recognizing an imminent departure or change, advising preparation for what's to come.
In a place like this, you abandon all hope, you just exist
Sensing a state of hopelessness or resignation in a particular environment.
You can't break the spell, well you know you're not in heaven, but you might be in hell.
Being in a situation that feels far from ideal, possibly uncomfortable or distressing.
People come and people go, and people want to tell you just how much they know
Reiteration of people's transient nature and their desire to showcase knowledge.
But I'm runnin' out of alibis, I got one thing left that I can't deny
Running out of excuses or justifications, facing an undeniable reality.
Yes I'm doin' time, doin' time, and it won't be long 'til I cross that line
Feeling confined or restrained, expecting an imminent boundary to be crossed.
Yes the day will come when it's time to go, you better get ready, 'cause now you know.
Acknowledging an approaching departure or change, urging readiness.
As you crossed the room, I was all wrapped up in my cocoon
Recalling a previous instance of feeling withdrawn or isolated.
When you said hello, I had nowhere to run and I had nowhere to go.
Being caught off guard again, unable to escape or avoid interaction.
Yes I'm runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'
Emphasizing the ongoing feeling of running or being in motion, possibly indicating an attempt to evade or cope.
Yes I'm runnin', runnin', runnin', runnin'
Reiterating the sense of continuous movement or action.
