Charcoal Spit
Charcoal Spit: A Soul's Plea in the Darkness
Lyrics
Oh father
Addressing or calling out to their father figure.
Can you hear me?
Asking if their father can hear them, possibly feeling isolated.
I'm all alone on a Friday night
Expressing loneliness on a Friday evening.
And it holds me tight I'm losing
Feeling emotionally suffocated or trapped, struggling.
I stayed up
Indicating staying awake or alert.
Are you listening?
Questioning if their father is paying attention.
Is it worth the time to make it right
Contemplating the value of fixing something.
I wanna fight this feeling
Desire to confront or battle against a certain emotion.
But it feels so good
Conflicted feelings about something despite it feeling pleasurable.
The way he hates us
Referring to someone's intense dislike or hatred.
I'm convinced it's love without the fun
Belief that there's a love-like connection even in a hostile situation.
Of a loaded gun in my hands
Feeling in control of a potentially dangerous situation.
Should I pray to you
Considering turning to a higher power for salvation.
To save me from this?
Desiring rescue from a distressing situation.
My wings are clipped charcoal spit
Feeling constrained or limited, unable to fly or move freely.
I swear I'd quit if I could
Expressing a wish to stop if given the choice.
My heart is in your hands
Signifying vulnerability, trusting someone with their heart.
A lamb for your heart
Comparing oneself to a sacrificial lamb in a relationship.
Following the word hurts
Feeling hurt or damaged by following someone's guidance or words.
And breaks it all apart
Resulting in emotional fragmentation or breakdown.
Hold me in the water
Symbolic request for purification or renewal.
Wash my soul clean
Desire for spiritual cleansing and renewal.
Take me to the altar
Seeking a safeguard from future harm or pain.
Pray I'll never burn again
Hoping to avoid experiencing past pain or trauma again.
