Lyrics

Walking blind

Expressing a sense of navigating without clear understanding or insight.

I'll survive

Affirming the ability to endure and persist despite challenges.

Another day in this world

Acknowledging the continuation of existence in the current reality.

Temptations reel

Suggesting the presence of alluring and potentially harmful influences.

The fates shall reveal

Anticipating that destiny will eventually disclose its plans or outcomes.

The path i walk

Reflecting on the journey taken and the chosen path.

And where i lie down

Contemplating the final resting place or state.

And these thoughts

Addressing persistent thoughts that contribute to a sense of being lost.

Are leaving us lost

Describing a state of confusion or disorientation caused by departing thoughts.

Echoes in my head

Resonating sounds or memories in the mind.

You numb it through

Attempting to numb or suppress a feeling, possibly to cope.

But what was the cost

Questioning the price paid for desensitizing or avoiding a certain experience.

The rot spreads

Describing the spread or influence of a metaphorical decay or negativity.

I'm still alive

Acknowledging survival despite the presence of decay or negativity.

The flame it clings to survive

Highlighting the persistence of a flickering positive element.

But needs more kindling and air to thrive

Indicating the need for nurturing and supportive conditions for positivity to thrive.

A space to heal

Referring to a need for a safe and recuperative environment.

The time to peel

Emphasizing the importance of a proper moment to address and resolve issues.

And clean the wounds I've carried a lifetime

Acknowledging and cleansing emotional wounds accumulated over a lifetime.

And these thoughts

Reiteration of thoughts causing a sense of being lost.

Are leaving us lost

Echoes in my head

You numb it through

But what was the cost

The rot spreads

Reiterating the spread or influence of decay or negativity.

And these thoughts

Repetition of the impact of departing thoughts.

Are leaving us lost

Echoes in my head

Reiterating the echo and impact of thoughts in the mind.

You numb it through

Re-emphasizing the numbing as a response to thoughts.

But what was the cost

Returning to the inquiry into the cost of numbing.

The rot spreads

You numb it through

Further emphasizing the act of numbing as a coping mechanism.

You numb it through
