Face Exposed
Unveiling Human Hypocrisy: "Face Exposed" by Halcyon Days
Lyrics
get out of my space
Desire for personal space and autonomy
allow me to breath
Request for freedom to breathe freely
staring me down
Intense observation or confrontation
with those blackened eyes
Reference to eyes that convey negativity or malice
why should I bother
Questioning the worth of engaging due to insincerity
with your hypocrisy
Rejection of insincere behavior
when you won't understand
Recognition of a lack of comprehension of reciprocity
that trust goes both ways
Highlighting the importance of mutual trust
growing up
Maturing over time
you never did
Implication of failure to mature
lack of respect
Disregard for others' feelings or boundaries
for so called friends
Disappointment with supposed friends
someplace I gotta draw the line
Establishing limits due to negative emotions
there's to much anger
Perception of intense anger
and so much hate
Observation of significant hostility
behind your eyes
Recognition of lack of remorse or guilt
there's no regret
Acknowledgment of an absence of regret
to say your sorry
Not expressing apologies for wrongdoing
that you did wrong
Denial or absence of acknowledging mistakes
does not exist
Refusal to admit fault or apologize
in your vocabulary
Not associating with the concept of apologizing
i´d rather die than be like you
Preference for death over resembling the addressed person
i'd rather die
Reiteration of preference for death over similarity
you won't keep quiet
Refusal to remain silent despite the impact of words
never think about the things you say
Failure to consider the consequences of spoken words
you won't keep quiet
Repetition of resistance to silence
please use your fucking brain
Urging for logical thinking before speaking
silence until
Choosing silence until personal gain is sought
you need a favor again
Reacting negatively when others refuse to comply
then lashing out when people don't give in
Describing manipulative behavior
to your bullshit
Dismissing someone's deceitful behavior
you seem awfully quiet once again
Noticing a sudden silence from the addressed person
what happened to caring for
Questioning the absence of care for loved ones
family and friends?
Referencing the importance of caring for family and friends
i'd rather die than be like you
Reiteration of preference for death over similarity
i'd rather die
-you won't keep quiet
Repeated refusal to remain silent
never think about the things you say
Emphasis on considering spoken words
you won't keep quiet
Reiterated refusal to stay silent
please use your fucking brain
Encouragement to think rationally before speaking
use your fucking brain
Reiteration of advising rational thinking before speaking
