Be Mine
Embracing Shadows: Life After Youth's Poignant Ode to Fear and Desperation
Lyrics
(Fear)
Fear
Got me up at night
Feeling anxious at night
Blindside; I’m still awake in the morning time
Caught off guard; still awake in the morning
Can’t sleep, can’t cry
Unable to sleep or cry
Everyone you’ve ever known will die
Acknowledging mortality; the inevitability of death
Ok, so life has no meaning
Expressing nihilism; life seems devoid of meaning
Working so hard just to hang from the ceiling
Working hard but feeling hopeless
We’re all so sad, we’re all so scared
Shared feelings of sadness and fear
I see the end and I am unprepared
Awareness of impending doom; feeling unprepared
Good enough, take it all
Acceptance of mediocrity; take whatever is available
I can’t focus without adderall
Dependency on Adderall for focus
Break your back, make a name
Striving for success; making a name through hard work
6 feet under we all look the same
Mortality; in death, everyone is equal
Be my, Valentine
Expressing desire for a romantic connection
Can’t sleep, I've tried
Insomnia despite attempts to sleep
I’m dying, you’re dying
Highlighting mortality and the shared experience of dying
They’re dying, we’re dying
Emphasizing the universality of death
Be my, Valentine
Repeating the desire for a romantic connection
Can’t sleep, I’ve tried
Continued difficulty sleeping
Punching, screaming, everyone leaving
Expressing frustration and desperation through physical actions
Who you believe in, a ghost or a demon?
Raising existential questions; belief in the supernatural
Be my
Repetition of the desire for a romantic connection
Be my, fear
Expressing fear as a companion
Be my
Repetition of the desire for fear
Be my
-(Fear)
Fear
Be my, Valentine
Reiteration of the desire for a romantic connection
Can’t sleep, I’m trying
Continued difficulty sleeping
I’m dying, you’re dying
Reinforcing the inevitability of death
They’re dying, we’re dying
Highlighting the shared experience of mortality
Be my, Valentine
Repeating the desire for a romantic connection
Can’t sleep, I’ve tried
Persistent insomnia despite efforts to sleep
I’m dying, you’re dying
Reinforcing the shared experience of mortality
We’re dying, they’re dying
Emphasizing the universality of death
Be my, Valentine
Repetition of the desire for a romantic connection
Can’t sleep, I’ve tried
Continued difficulty sleeping
I’m dying, you’re dying
Reinforcing the inevitability of death
They’re dying, we’re dying
Highlighting the shared experience of mortality
Be my, Valentine
Repeating the desire for a romantic connection
Can’t sleep, I’ve tried
Persistent insomnia despite efforts to sleep
Punching, screaming, everyone leaving
Expressing frustration and desperation through physical actions
Who you believe in, a ghost or a demon?
Raising existential questions; belief in the supernatural
Be my
Repetition of the desire for a romantic connection
Be my, fear
Expressing fear as a companion
Be my
Repetition of the desire for fear
Be my
