I Am the Island
Island of Desolation: Navigating the Depths of Apathy in Lesser Glow's Melodic Tale
Lyrics
I'm lost in a blinded state
I feel disoriented and confused
Now apathy grows
Apathy is growing within me
with the time that you waste
A reference to time being wasted
Rotting at a deliberate pace
I am decaying intentionally and slowly
The herd have run
A group has scattered and lost their leader
and lost the shepard
An appeal for assistance
Call for help
A plea for help but with a reluctance to reveal vulnerabilities
but please don't look
Advice not to explore beneath the surface
beneath the shelter
Suggesting a hidden and protected place
There's a rift in your trust
There is a breach in trust
it drowns in your
Trust issues are overwhelmed by darkness
Absence of light
A state of being without light
Opaque and unyielding
Something obstructive and unyielding
Submerged yet still breathing
Being submerged but still alive
But on this on island I am king
Despite challenges, I am in control on this island
A barren wasteland of buried limbs
The island is desolate with buried remnants
Shedding weight,
Shedding emotional baggage, feeling weak and faded
a weak faded state
A diminished and feeble state
The isolation reads
Isolation is comparable to the map of one's thoughts
like a map of my head
The sense that improvement is not occurring
But I don't think it's getting better
A personal struggle that may not be getting better
The plane has begun to level
A metaphorical plane has stabilized
And I've discarded the tether
The rejection of a restraint or limitation
And I fear it's not getting better
Fear that the situation is not improving
