Dead Men
Elegy of Desolation: KVBRICK STARE's Haunting Reflection on a World in Decay
Lyrics
Such a sad, cruel, God damned world
Expressing the world as sad, cruel, and condemned by God.
Memoirs of the coldest hearts sabotage the weaker minds
Reflections on the coldest hearts sabotaging the weaker minds.
We're dying in the dark, we're dying in the dark
Repetition emphasizing a sense of death or decline in darkness.
Selling lies, crossing lines
Engaging in deceit and crossing moral boundaries for personal gain.
Just to get my fucking own
Frustration in obtaining what rightfully belongs.
I've been living with the dead men
Living among those who are emotionally or spiritually dead.
It's just another dead end
Referring to a point with no progress or hope.
My head is on the floor
Metaphorically placing the head on the floor, detached from the body.
My eyes are glued to the ceiling
Feeling detached, looking up with a sense of hopelessness.
This stillness inside me
Describing inner stillness or emotional numbness.
A black heart no longer beats
Acknowledging a heart turned black due to various experiences.
But God knows I've tried every fucking thing
Expressing efforts made despite facing challenges.
The reaper sings of the end
Reference to death, possibly symbolized by the reaper.
Words of a familiar friend
Words from someone familiar, possibly a friend or inner voice.
Replaying backwards in my head
Replaying past experiences in reverse, indicating reflection.
I've never felt so complacent in this world of shit
Feeling strangely content in a difficult world.
I'll right my wrongs when I hit the bottom of the grave I'll dig
Committing to making amends when hitting rock bottom.
(Of the grave I'll dig)
Reiteration of the commitment to self-improvement.
C'MON
An invitation or challenge to confront one's arrogance.
You think you're above it all?
Questioning someone's sense of superiority.
Collapse - no stranger to the downfall
Experiencing a downfall, possibly indicating personal struggles.
I can't sleep while feeling that the rain will never stop
Insomnia or restlessness due to the perception of endless hardship.
Spending a lifetime counting the clock
Spending life fixated on time, feeling its weight.
I'm so afraid of change but no one relates
Fearing change while feeling isolated in one's experience.
If the sun should rise again I will leave you all in red
If given another chance, the speaker will leave others in pain.
I've been living with the dead
Continued existence among emotionally dead individuals.
Am I like all the rest?
Questioning whether the speaker is similar to others.
Sleepwalking with my skeletons
Navigating life burdened by past mistakes or regrets.
Such a sad, cruel, God damned world
Reiteration of the world's cruelty and godforsaken nature.
Memoirs of the coldest hearts sabotage the weaker minds
Reflecting again on the impact of cold-hearted actions on weaker minds.
We're dying in the dark, we're dying in the dark
Repetition emphasizing a sense of death or decline in darkness.
Selling lies, crossing lines
Engaging in deceit and crossing moral boundaries for personal gain.
Just to get my fucking own
Frustration in obtaining what rightfully belongs.
You think you're above it all?
Questioning someone's sense of superiority.
I've spent a lifetime just counting the clock
Spending a significant part of life obsessing over time.
Thinking that there's still something left for me
Hoping for something meaningful despite the passage of time.
I've spent a lifetime just counting the clock
Repetition of spending a lifetime fixated on time.
Thinking that there's still something left for me
Continued hope for something meaningful in life.
Something left for me
Expression of a desire for something significant in life.
I've been living with the dead men
Living among emotionally or spiritually dead individuals.
And it's just another dead end
Reiteration of a point with no progress or hope.
