Horribly Right
Unraveling Fate: Mammoth WVH's Horribly Right Chronicles Life's Turmoil
Lyrics
You think you've got it all under control
You believe you have everything under control.
But everything is starting to unfold
Despite your belief, things are starting to unravel or become chaotic.
Made your bed but you won't lie in it
You've set up a situation, but you refuse to face its consequences.
That little voice that starts inside your head
A nagging inner voice begins to speak in your mind.
I'll believe in you, believe in me
The speaker expresses belief in you reciprocally.
I'll be everything you thought you'd be
The speaker promises to fulfill the expectations you had for yourself.
But you don't want it and I don't need it
You reject what is offered, and the speaker doesn't require it.
Turn your head, you won't even believe it
Look away; you won't even comprehend or accept the truth.
Turn out the lights
Symbolic suggestion to shut out awareness or understanding.
I don't think you'll ever realize
Doubt if you'll ever grasp the reality.
Say a prayer tonight
A plea for divine intervention or guidance.
If you made it this far it went horribly right
If you've reached this point, it all went terribly but effectively.
Stumbling and you're not shooting straight
You are stumbling and lacking precision or clarity.
Subtlety is not your finest trait
You lack subtlety, a refined trait.
Can't you see how much there is at stake?
Realization of the high stakes involved in your actions.
It's just another one of your mistakes
Another error or misjudgment in a series.
Slippin' down, slippin' down, so come with me
A suggestion to descend or deteriorate together.
Look around, look around, what do you see?
Observe your surroundings; what do you perceive?
But you don't want it and I don't need it
Similar to lines 7 and 8, a rejection of something not needed.
Turn your head, you won't even believe it
Refusal to acknowledge an unexpected reality.
Turn out the lights
Reiteration of shutting out awareness or understanding.
I don't think you'll ever realize
Doubt about ever understanding the situation.
Say a prayer tonight
A plea for divine assistance reasserted.
If you made it this far it went horribly right
If you've reached this point, the outcome was unexpectedly effective.
Slippin' down, slippin' down, so come with me
Repetition of the theme of slipping or descending, with an invitation to join.
Look around, look around, what do you see?
-Slippin' down, slippin' down, so come with me
-Look around, look around, what do you see?
-Slippin' down, slippin' down, so come with me
-Look around, look around, what do you see?
-Slippin' down, slip on down, look around
-Turn out the lights
Reiteration of shutting out awareness or understanding.
I don't think you'll ever realize
Doubt about ever understanding the situation.
Say a prayer tonight
A plea for divine assistance reasserted.
If you made it this far it went horribly right
If you've reached this point, the outcome was unexpectedly effective.
Horribly right
Emphasis on the unexpected success or effectiveness.
Horribly right
-Slippin' down, slippin' down, so come with me
Repetition of the theme of slipping or descending, with an invitation to join.
Look around, look around, what do you see?
-Slippin' down, slip on down, look around
