Lyrics
When the end of sanity comes to you
Anticipation of the breakdown of sanity in a person
What will the silence say
Questioning the outcome and response when silence prevails
Will you express any remorse or throw decency away
Asking if there will be remorse or abandonment of decency
Clear conscience is forfeit when a heart's played false by praise
A clear conscience is lost when deceived by false praise
Harmony ends swiftly, withers, dies and dissipates
Harmony ends abruptly, withers, dies, and dissipates
Always unwilling to give, so self-obsessed without respect
Reference to individuals who are unwilling to give, self-obsessed, and lacking respect
Always unwilling to give but they take take take
Repetition of unwillingness to give and highlighting their tendency to take from others
So many unfazed by greed, just arrogant so ignorant
Many are unaffected by greed, displaying arrogance and ignorance
So many in dire need but they wait wait wait
Contrast of those in dire need who patiently wait for assistance
Then comes forth a message
Introduction of a forthcoming message or lesson
A lesson you'll surely learn
Assurance that a lesson will be learned
Confidence is fragile so we see the damage earned
Highlighting the fragility of confidence and the resulting damage
A propped up false identity, bearing a faceless mark
Portrayal of a false identity held up by external support, lacking a distinct mark
Dignity was not preserved, now we're at a loss
Loss of dignity that was not preserved, leading to a state of confusion or defeat
Always unwilling to give, so self-obsessed without respect
Reiteration of individuals unwilling to give and self-obsessed, emphasizing their lack of respect
Always unwilling to give but they take take take
Repetition of the pattern where they take from others without giving back
So many unfazed by greed, just arrogant so ignorant
Description of many being unaffected by greed, displaying arrogance and ignorance
So many in dire need but they wait wait wait
Reiteration of contrasting situations where some are in dire need but patiently wait for help
Then comes forth a message
Reintroduction of a forthcoming message or lesson
A lesson you'll surely learn
Reaffirmation that a lesson will be learned
Confidence is fragile so we see the damage earned
Emphasis on the fragile nature of confidence and the resultant damage
A propped up false identity, bearing a faceless mark
Representation of a false identity supported externally, lacking a distinct mark
Dignity was not preserved, now we're at a loss
Expression of the loss of dignity, leading to a state of confusion or defeat
All I hear is dissonance
Final statement expressing that all that is heard is dissonance
