The Return
Eternal Struggle: A Tale of Return and Redemption
Lyrics
Alone
Feeling isolated and disconnected from others
Once more alone
Expressing loneliness once again
As the memories weave and fade away
Reflecting on memories that are fading away
Separation mocks me
Feeling mocked by the state of separation
Frustration consumes me
Being overwhelmed by frustration
Inspiration has grown cold
Lack of inspiration or creative energy
Even as the longing renews
Longing for something, despite inspiration fading
Desperate I return to you
Expressing desperation and a return to someone
Broken I return to you
Returning in a broken state to the same person
We circle over and over
Continuously going in circles in a relationship
But still I return to you
Despite the cycle, still returning to the same person
What will it take to escape you
Pondering the requirements to break free from a situation or person
What will it take to escape you
(Reiteration of the desire to escape)
Is this what you wanted
Questioning if the current situation is the desired outcome
To see me humbled
Wondering if the other person wanted to see them humbled
Is this what you asked for
Questioning if the current state is what was asked for
The final word
Reflecting on the potential finality of the situation
Desperate I return to you
Expressing desperation and a return to someone
Broken I return to you
Returning in a broken state to the same person
We circle over and over
Continuously going in circles in a relationship
But still I return to you
Despite the cycle, still returning to the same person
I would tear my eye's out
Expressing a willingness to go to extremes to avoid seeing someone
To never see your face
Despite extreme measures, the emotional scars remain
But all of these scars
Physical scars cannot erase emotional wounds
Can never be erased
Permanent marks that cannot be removed
Choke on your words
Struggling with words that have caused pain and suffering
That have left me bleeding
Wishing for the words to choke the source of pain
And may your tear's
Desiring the tears of the other person to burn
May your tear's burn
Expressing a desire for emotional consequence
We circle over and over
Continuously going in circles in a relationship
Still I return
Despite the cycle, still returning
I return (oh)
(Reiteration of returning)
Desperate I return to you
Expressing desperation and a return to someone
Broken I return to you
Returning in a broken state to the same person
We circle over and over
Continuously going in circles in a relationship
But still I return to you
Despite the cycle, still returning to the same person
What will it take
Pondering the requirements to break free from a situation or person
To escape you
(Reiteration of the desire to escape)
What will it take
Questioning if the current situation is the desired outcome
To escape
Wondering what it will take to break free
