The Nail In The Coffin
Resilience Amidst Broken Promises: Grym Rhymney's Anthem of Endurance
Lyrics
Looking back we were guaranteed to fucking fall
Reflecting on the past, acknowledging the inevitability of failure
Look what you've done you've god damn doomed us all
Expressing frustration and blaming someone for a disastrous outcome
But blinded hypocritical sweet talk left us all in awe
Criticizing deceptive and insincere persuasive speech that amazed everyone
They promised us the world
Recalling promises of a better future
If we adhered to everything they said
Being told to follow instructions to receive the promised rewards
Now I'm not convinced it was ever theirs to give
Expressing doubt about the legitimacy of the promised rewards
Now the hypnotic disguise is lifting
Noticing the fading of a captivating but deceptive disguise
The romantic illusion fades away
The end of an idealized and false perception of reality
And in the ashes of our failure
Confronting the aftermath of a collective failure
We'll find out what it means to endure
Facing the consequences and learning the true meaning of endurance
The ground beneath my feet is shifting
Feeling instability and uncertainty in one's surroundings
We've been swept out, pulled under, chewed up, spit out
Describing a series of negative experiences – being overwhelmed and discarded
And washed up on the shore
Metaphorically washed ashore, symbolizing a point of reckoning
They promised us the world
Reiterating promises made for compliance
If we adhered to everything they said
Questioning the authenticity of the promised rewards
Now I'm not convinced it was ever theirs to give
Expressing skepticism about the legitimacy of the promises
Would you just look at the sorry state we're in
Observing and lamenting the current unfortunate situation
I cannot see a way forward and I regret
Feeling lost and regretful, unable to see a positive way forward
Not trying something
Expressing regret for not attempting something earlier
Before I just woke up in the sorry state we're in
Waking up to the realization of the current unfortunate state
I wont believe this is the end
Refusing to accept that this is the end of the situation
I wont let this be the nail in the coffin
Determined not to let the current situation be the decisive failure
Looking back we were guaranteed to fucking fall
Repeating the acknowledgment of an unavoidable downfall
Look what you've done you've god damn doomed us all
Blaming someone for the catastrophic outcome
But blinded hypocritical sweet talk left us all in awe
Criticizing deceptive and insincere persuasive speech once again
They promised us the world
Recalling promises made for compliance, highlighting repetition
If we adhered to everything they said
Questioning the legitimacy of the rewards promised for compliance
Now I'm not convinced it was ever theirs to give
Expressing ongoing skepticism about the promised rewards
Would you just look at the sorry state we're in
Observing and lamenting the current unfortunate situation once again
I cannot see a way forward and I regret
Feeling lost and regretful, unable to see a positive way forward again
Not trying something
Expressing regret for not attempting something earlier again
Before I just woke up in the sorry state we're in
Reiterating the sudden awareness of the unfortunate state
I wont believe this is the end
Refusing to accept that this is the end of the situation once again
I wont let this be the nail in the coffin
Reaffirming the determination not to let the situation be the decisive failure
Look at the state we're in
A repeated emphasis on the dire and regrettable situation
Would you just look at the sorry state we're in
Reiterating the observation of the unfortunate state
I cannot see a way forward and I regret
Feeling lost and regretful, unable to see a positive way forward once again
Not trying something
Expressing regret for not attempting something earlier again
Before I just woke up in the sorry state we're in
Reiterating the sudden awareness of the unfortunate state once again
I wont believe this is the end
Refusing to accept that this is the end of the situation once again
I wont let this be the nail in the coffin
Reaffirming the determination not to let the situation be the decisive failure once again
