Embracing Struggle: Blood, Sweat, No Tears by Kalli Talonpoika
Lyrics
There's days I can no longer hold in the pain
Expresses the difficulty of containing emotional pain on certain days.
It spills and it gets everywhere
Describes how the pain overflows and affects every aspect of life.
I live and it feels wrong
Conveys a sense of existential discomfort and feeling that life is not right.
So I try not to live
Attempts to cope by avoiding active participation in life to minimize pain.
Dead weight, it's all just dead weight
Characterizes the emotional burden as an unproductive, heavy force.

Expresses a sense of abandonment and lack of support during challenging times.
