Lyrics
How do we cope? Unearthing what we've known
Dealing with the challenge of uncovering familiar aspects
They are breaking the silence
Revealing and disrupting the quiet or secrecy
Died for just believing
Death resulting from adhering to personal beliefs
You won't die again, the souls are rising
Assurance that death won't repeat, souls are ascending
A brazen triumph of faith
A bold victory achieved through faith
How can I forget?
A struggle with remembering
What you are and did for me
Acknowledgment of someone's identity and their actions
Look at my empty home
An observation of one's vacant dwelling
Overgrown and cover'd in leaves
Describing a neglected and nature-covered home
A silken afterthought
A secondary thought with delicate characteristics
Dead, limp and lifeless
Description of something lifeless and devoid of vitality
A shadow buried deep
A hidden and suppressed aspect
How many of us exist
Questioning the collective existence without essential sustenance
Unified without air to breathe
Being together yet suffocating, lacking necessary elements
Why didn't you stay silent?
Questioning why silence wasn't maintained
Broken but alive
Despite being damaged, still alive
How can I forget?
A repeated struggle with remembering
No one is here
An observation of absence
No one ever talks back to them
No response or reaction from others
I cannot fathom
An inability to comprehend
So early you filled the hole
An early filling of an emotional void
Mine are in the ground
Referring to buried loved ones
But yours could be next
A cautionary statement about potential loss
The scoffer made somber
The mocker becoming serious or solemn
And those who forget pay in eternity
Warning about the consequences of forgetting
Oh, don't you turn away
Encouragement not to ignore or disregard
You must honor them
Emphasizing the importance of honoring others
It will all come back on you
A caution about consequences and repercussions
If you wait for me to break down and give my life away
Refusing to succumb or give up life despite challenges
I'll dig you out on bended knee
A pledge to assist and support fervently
No one dreams in these forgotten fields
No aspirations or hopes in forgotten territories
Ideas are never undone
Indicating permanence of ideas despite neglect
