In The Bag
Unveiling Secrets: Embracing Resilience in Turmoil
Lyrics
spent all my days under the sun in a haven
Reflecting on spending time in a peaceful place under the sun
locked up in a room that’s filled with fog and self isolation but now I’m back & I can feel it
Describing a period of isolation filled with confusion and self-reflection but now feeling a positive change
there’s no more locking up my spirit
Expressing a newfound freedom and openness, breaking free from confinement
the sound won’t drown me out, but it’s got me spun around
Feeling disoriented by external influences but determined not to be silenced
it pushed us to the ground with every isolated incident
Facing challenges and setbacks caused by various incidents
so bend the light toward the dark to illuminate what you can’t see the sound won’t drown me out
Using metaphorical language about bending light to overcome darkness and obstacles
cause I will not live for my secrets
Committing to living authentically without hiding secrets
out of my skull. I’m numb. where is my mind?
Feeling emotionally detached and questioning one's state of mind
I left it In the bag with the checks we never cashed
Metaphorically leaving behind a part of oneself (mind) along with unfulfilled opportunities
but now that funds are running thin, it’s all objective
Acknowledging the changing financial situation and its impact on perspective
we slipped and fell back into our old ways at the same pace
Reverting to old habits and patterns at a familiar pace
the sound won’t drown me out, but it’s got me spun around
Reiterating the disorienting effect of external influences on personal identity
it pushed us to the ground with every isolated incident
Highlighting the impact of incidents that bring individuals down
so bend the light toward the dark to illuminate what you can’t see
Continuing the metaphor of bending light to reveal unseen truths
the sound won’t drown me out cause I will not live for my secrets
Reaffirming a commitment to living authentically without concealing secrets
so what’s the total cost
Posing a question about the overall cost of a situation
when the price you pay’s not what you’ve got?
Questioning the value of what is paid compared to what is obtained
and when you add it up all the things you got ain’t what you want? so what’s the total cost of a handshake deal two fingers crossed? behind your back you strike a match
Exploring the cost of deals and actions, emphasizing deception and hidden motives
the sound won’t drown me out, but it’s got me spun around
Reiterating the impact of external influences on personal identity and perspective
it pushed us to the ground with every isolated incident
Emphasizing the cumulative effect of incidents bringing individuals down
so bend the light toward the dark to illuminate what you can’t see the sound won’t drown me out
Repeating the metaphor of bending light to reveal hidden truths
cause I will not live for my secrets
Reaffirming a commitment to living authentically without hiding secrets
