Russian Roulette
Eternal Struggle: Liquid State's Dark Symphony
Lyrics
When i'm on my own I think of all the ways I can get out
Contemplating various ways to escape when alone
Fake a smile now
Forcing a smile to conceal true feelings
It's alright now
Expressing reassurance that everything is okay
If I just get up and leave somehow
Considering the option of abruptly leaving
And I'm all caught up in this hollow life it's on repeat
Feeling trapped in a repetitive and empty life
It's on repeat
Emphasizing the cyclical nature of the struggles
I have this feeling it's eating away at me
Experiencing a consuming and negative emotion
This isn't who I am or my responsibility
Rejecting a role that doesn't align with one's true self
And I've got issues they're on repeat inside of my head
Acknowledging personal issues repeating in the mind
Let's play Russian Roulette
Suggesting a metaphorical game of chance and risk
And see if I am already dead
Questioning one's own existence or emotional state
I'm already dead
Reiterating a sense of emotional numbness or detachment
I'm already dead
-I'm already dead
-The taste of metal on my tongue
Describing a metallic taste, possibly related to fear
Empty the chamber one by one
Removing bullets from a gun chamber one by one
Load the barrel trigger bail
Preparing the gun for a potentially risky action
There's no take two if you fail
Emphasizing the finality of a risky decision
The taste of metal on my tongue
Repeating the metallic taste, suggesting uncertainty
Maybe i'm having too much fun
Finding enjoyment or escape in risky behavior
My drug when life gets stale
Turning to a metaphorical "drug" when life becomes dull
Take a deep breath and exhale
Taking a moment to calm down and release tension
But it's okay
Accepting the unhinged nature and conceding defeat
Because i'm unhinged
-I'll be a good sport
-And i'll let you win
-I have this feeling it's eating away at me
Reiterating the impact of a consuming emotion
This isn't who I am or my responsibility
Rejecting a false identity and associated burdens
And I've got issues they're on repeat inside of my head
Acknowledging recurring issues in the mind
Let's play Russian Roulette
Proposing a dangerous and uncertain challenge
And see if I am already dead
-Stop
Repeating a call to stop and reconsider a risky choice
Count to three
-Is this what you want
-Because tonight it's between you and me
-Stop
-Count to three
-Is this what you want
-Because tonight it's between you and me
-Stop
-Count to three
-Is this what you want
-Because tonight it's between you and me
-Stop
-Count to three
-Is this what you want
-Because tonight it's between you and me
-I have this feeling it's eating away at me
Stating the impact of the consuming emotion
This isn't who I am or my responsibility
Rejecting a false identity and associated responsibilities
And I've got issues they're on repeat inside of my head
Acknowledging recurring issues in the mind
Let's play Russian Roulette
Proposing a dangerous and uncertain challenge
And see if I am already dead
-I'm already dead
Reiterating a sense of emotional numbness or detachment
I'm already dead
-I'm already dead
