Pride
From Pride to Tears: Unveiling the Haunting Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Tonight the city's alive
Tonight, the city is vibrant and full of life.
Even though it's haunted
Despite its haunted nature or dark past, the city remains lively.
You still choke on the thought
You struggle with unsettling thoughts that keep you emotionally tied or restricted.
That's keeping you in bondage
These thoughts act as a source of bondage or captivity.
And you want it stop
You desire for the distressing thoughts to cease.
But even though you want to
Despite the desire, you find it difficult to break free from these thoughts.
You won't do that
Despite the inner conflict, you can't bring yourself to stop dwelling on these thoughts.
Ever since you died
Since a significant event or personal change, it makes sense to sever certain connections.
It just makes sense to cut ties
After a personal transformation, cutting ties seems like a logical decision.
What once filled me with pride
Something that once filled you with pride now evokes sadness or regret.
Now just bring tears to my eyes
The prideful element now brings tears instead of joy.
Hey, let's go for a ride
Suggesting a change or escape, perhaps through a physical journey.
This apartment is a coffin
The current living situation feels constricting and stifling.
Desperate for a change
A strong desire for a change or meaningful communication.
Or some simple correspondence
Seeking a simple connection or interaction to break the monotony.
And I want it to stop
The desire for distressing thoughts to end persists.
And even though I want to
Despite the persistent desire, taking action remains challenging.
I won't do that
Similar to line 7, the struggle to stop dwelling on troubling thoughts.
Ever since you died
Following a significant event, it seems logical to sever certain connections.
It just makes sense to cut ties
Reiteration of the logical decision to cut ties after personal change.
What once filled me with pride
Reflecting on something that used to bring pride but now brings sorrow.
Now just bring tears to my eyes
The shift from pride to sadness is a recurring theme.
Ever since you died
Repetition of the idea that after a personal transformation, cutting ties makes sense.
It just makes sense to cut ties
Reiterating the logic behind cutting ties after a significant personal change.
What once filled me with pride
Repetition of the emotional shift from pride to tears.
Now just bring tears to my eyes
Emphasizing the emotional impact of the once prideful element.
Ever since you died
Reiteration of the logical decision to cut ties after a significant change.
It just makes sense to cut ties
Reinforcing the idea of severing connections following personal transformation.
What once filled me with pride
Repetition of the emotional shift from pride to sorrow.
Now just bring tears to my eyes
Continued emphasis on the emotional impact of the prideful element.
