FAKING AMNESIA
Faking Amnesia: A Captivating Dive into Dark Depths
Lyrics
Take a look around
Inviting someone to observe the surroundings.
There’s blood in the water
There are signs of danger or trouble present.
Dark shapes circle my body
Feeling threatened or surrounded by ominous forces.
There’s no way out
Feeling trapped with no escape.
My love for my captor
Feelings of affection or attachment to the one causing harm.
Is all I’ll take with me
Emphasizing the emotional connection as the only thing preserved.
He tells me I am shit
Receiving abusive or degrading treatment from someone.
And I’ve come to depend on it
Having developed a reliance on the negative treatment.
I saw you through the open door
Witnessing someone's discomfort or unease.
Looking kinda seasick
Seeing someone looking unwell or nauseated.
Sitting in the middle of the room
Observing someone surrounded by potential harm or danger.
Covered in mousetraps
Being in a situation filled with traps or hazards.
Take me at my word
Requesting belief or trust in what is being said.
Take what is offered
Encouraging acceptance of what's being offered.
Please take pity on me
Pleading for compassion or sympathy.
For I know not what I do
Expressing a lack of awareness or control over actions.
Throw away the key
Suggesting locking away or suppressing something.
Once in awhile
Occasional moments of self-reflection or realization.
There’s light on the mirror
Intermittent moments of clarity or self-awareness.
He shuts the door
Being shut off from an opportunity or escape.
And shatters me into itty-bitty pieces
Describing emotional devastation or fragmentation.
And so I’ll weave my magic
Using personal abilities or talents for someone else's benefit.
Just so you can have it
Creating something for another's possession or enjoyment.
And when my body rots
Expressing a wish for one's suffering to benefit another.
May it be for your benefit
Desiring one's decay or deterioration to serve someone else's purpose.
I saw you through the clear membrane
Observing someone in a vulnerable or exposed state.
Splayed out like a starfish
Describing a state of vulnerability or defenselessness.
Faking amnesia
Acting as if memory loss is feigned or pretended.
When the officer asked you questions
Handling questions or situations with skepticism or caution.
Take it with a grain of salt
Advising not to take things too seriously or literally.
Take all the blame, it’s not your fault
Taking responsibility despite not being at fault.
Take back every word you said
Recanting or retracting previously spoken words.
‘Cause you know they were all true
Acknowledging the truth in spoken words despite denial.
Throw away the key
Suggesting the act of locking away or suppressing something again.
