Bittersweet Symphony: Unveiling the Depths of Internal Struggle
Lyrics
Surrounded on all sides
Feeling surrounded from all directions.
And I can't seem to find
Unable to locate the right words within.
The words inside
Struggling to express oneself verbally.
Or any peace of mind
Lacking inner peace and tranquility.
Air will fill my lungs
Breathing in, but unable to communicate.
But I can't make a sound
Silenced despite having air in the lungs.
The tip of my tongue
Speech restrained, as if the tongue is immobilized.
Nailed to the ground
Feeling stuck and unable to move forward.
Buried so deep that I've failed me
Deeply buried within oneself, experiencing failure.
Because I don't know what's on the inside killing me
Unaware of internal struggles causing harm.
A natural defence against a backwards world
Using emotional detachment as protection in a troubled world.
To turn off emotion is to save yourself
Emphasizing the preservation aspect of turning off emotions.
(I'm sick of it all)
Expressing frustration and exhaustion.
I'm sick of it all in front of me but out of reach
Frustration with things being just out of reach.
(It's bittersweet)
Recognizing a mix of positive and negative emotions.
I am not ashamed that the emptiness
No shame in acknowledging inner emptiness.
Surrounding me
Surrounded by conflicting feelings.
It's bittersweet
Describing the conflicting nature of emotions as bittersweet.
This time I'm
Feeling at the edge of a situation.
The one on the edge
Expressing readiness for a significant change.
And I'm ready to take the next step
Uncertain if salvation is possible, time being the judge.
Only time will tell if I can be saved
Committing to finding the right words.
I swear to god I'll find these fucking words to say
Swearing to express oneself honestly.
If there was an architect of indifference
If indifference had a creator, expressing disdain for it.
I'd have a free portrait
Imagining a portrait representing distorted truth.
Of truth so contorted
Creating barriers that people need to overcome.
Making walls for people to climb
Blindness preventing individuals from seeking enlightenment.
Blind men never walk into the light
Greed and deceit evident in the eyes of others.
Eyes of greed and underlined deceit
Observing a world filled with hypocrisy.
See a world of fucking hypocrisy
Pledging to dismantle the systems of deception.
I will break every clock face
Symbolically breaking away from the constraints of time.
On this god forsaken world to
Expressing a desire to reset and start anew.
Reset
A declaration that time won't provide salvation.
I tell you
A acknowledgment that time could be detrimental.
Time won't save me
Reiterating that time won't bring salvation.
Time will be the death of me
Highlighting the potentially destructive nature of time.
Time won't save me
Emphasizing the theme of time as a non-savior.
Time will be the death of me
Stating that time may lead to one's demise.
