Violations
Emotional Struggles Unveiled: Icon of Coil's 'Violations' Meaning
Lyrics
I hate upon a star emotions got where you are remember feelings
I express dislike or resentment towards a distant goal or aspiration; emotions have reached your location, recalling past feelings.
Got you this far denial makes it harder for the stars to shine
Refusal or rejection makes it more challenging for celestial bodies to radiate; denial complicates the journey that brought you to this point.
The things I thought I said were offending you
The words I believed I communicated were causing offense to you.
The things you did were offending me
Your actions were causing offense to me.
The things you thought were offending you
Your thoughts were causing offense to yourself.
The things I did were offending me
My actions were causing offense to myself.
I burn beneath the ice the answers
I endure intense emotions beneath a cold exterior; the solutions or truths are elusive.
Were never revealed to the human mind
The answers to my struggles remain hidden from the capabilities of the human mind.
Sometimes the path feels just like a string
At times, the journey feels like a delicate thread; you manage the benefits to achieve a sense of well-being.
You balance the gain to make you feel good
You balance the advantages gained to create a positive experience.
The things I thought I said were offending you
The words I believed I communicated were causing offense to you.
The things you did were offending me
Your actions were causing offense to me.
The things you thought were offending you
Your thoughts were causing offense to yourself.
The things I did were offending me
My actions were causing offense to myself.
I can not walk alone like breathing under water
I am unable to proceed alone, akin to trying to breathe underwater.
I can not walk alone like talking without a tongue
I am unable to proceed alone, like attempting to communicate without a tongue.
I can not walk alone like conscience without a mind
I am unable to proceed alone, like having a conscience without a mind.
I can not walk alone
I cannot traverse the path independently.
I freeze above a flame I never expected me to fall between
I experience a paradox, freezing above a flame I never anticipated falling between.
I drifted in the space between
I exist in the intermediate space; colors lose vibrancy, fading to white.
Colours fade to white
The state of loneliness is emphasized as I am adorned in red.
And I feel lonely dressed in red, that's why
This explains the feeling of loneliness, dressed in the color red.
