Lyrics
You said you've had enough for a while
You mentioned being tired of something for a period.
But we keep ending up here in denial
We consistently find ourselves in a state of denial despite your desire to move on.
The skeletons we hid in our past
The hidden mistakes and regrets from our past are like skeletons haunting us.
Haunt us they won't stop coming back
These past issues persistently resurface and trouble us.
babe you should know, I tried to let go
I want you to know that I made an effort to move on.
But ya keep
Despite my efforts,
digging up the dead
You continue to bring up and dwell on the past.
digging up the dead
-digging up the dead in me
-but ya keep
This repetition intensifies the theme of revisiting past issues.
digging up the dead
-digging up the dead
-digging up the dead in me
-I hear the ringing of the cathedral bells
I hear the sound of cathedral bells,
There singing while l'm losing myself
They are a backdrop as I lose myself.
Dying here with all my beliefs
I am struggling with my beliefs and values.
Laying crosses on the red winter leaves
Symbolic act of placing crosses on red winter leaves, possibly representing struggles.
I know what I know, I need to let go
I acknowledge that I need to release certain things.
But I keep
However,
digging up the dead
I am still unable to let go of the past.
digging up the dead
-digging up the dead in me
-but I keep
Repetition emphasizes the difficulty in moving on.
digging up the dead
-digging up the dead
-digging up the dead in me
-I want you to know
I want you to understand
I try to let go
I tried to release things,
but its building up inside of me
but emotions are accumulating within me.
now I'm buried in it six feet deep
Now, I feel deeply entrenched in these emotions.
Does that me weak?
Am I considered weak because of this?
make me weak
This repetition questions and reflects on the perception of weakness.
digging up the dead
The act of continually revisiting and grappling with the past is ongoing.
digging up the dead
-digging up the dead in me
-does that make me weak?
Reiterating the question of whether this behavior makes the individual weak.
does it make me weak?
