Dead
Embrace Life: Kieran Rhodes' 'Dead' Unveils the Haunting Reality Beyond the Grave
Lyrics
You don't get out that much do ya
You don't socialize much, do you?
Sleeping in the same old soil can really do that ya
Staying in the same routine can have a negative impact on you.
You could go anywhere you like, visit your grandkids or take a hike
You have the freedom to go anywhere, but you choose not to.
But man you look rotten, and you never leave your coffin
Your appearance is unhealthy, and you isolate yourself.
Oh living people, where have you gone
Expressing a sense of loss or disconnection from the living.
I'm getting restless and I don't know how to move on
Feeling restless and stuck, unsure how to move forward.
Last year I was picking roses, and now I'm buried decomposing
Reflecting on past activities, contrasting them with current decomposition.
Man, you don't have to be dead to lose your head
A warning that one can lose their way or identity without being physically dead.
You don't love yourself much do ya
Suggesting a lack of self-love or care.
And holding it all inside is like letting the worms crawl through ya
Keeping emotions bottled up is detrimental, akin to letting negativity consume you.
You could see anything you please, travel the world scare your nephew and niece
Despite the potential for exploration, the person is stuck in a negative state.
But man, you gotta stop this, no one's ever seen a ghost this haunted
Encouragement to break free from a haunted, unhealthy existence.
Oh living people, where have you gone
Reiterating a sense of disconnection from the living.
I'm getting restless and I don't know how to move on
Continued restlessness and uncertainty about moving forward.
Last year I was picking roses, and now I'm buried decomposing
Reflecting on a past life of vitality and contrasting it with decomposition.
Man, you don't have to be
Continuation of the warning that one doesn't have to be physically dead to lose oneself.
Dead
Repetition of the word "Dead" for emphasis.
Dead
-Dead
-Dead
-Oh living people, where have you gone
Expressing a sense of loss or disconnection from the living.
I'm getting restless and I don't know how to move on
Continued restlessness and uncertainty about moving forward.
Last year I was picking roses, and now I'm buried decomposing
Reflecting on past activities, contrasting them with current decomposition.
Man, you don't have to be dead
Reiteration that one can lose their way without being physically dead.
You don't have to be dead
Emphasizing the idea that physical death is not the only way to lose oneself.
So hold on to your head
An urging to hold onto one's identity and not lose it.
You might lose it
A final warning about the potential loss of identity.
