Cocaine Cowboys
Echoes of Agony: Matriarchs' Struggle with Pain and Redemption
Lyrics
I just want to break my fists for everything I missed
I feel a strong desire to release my frustration physically due to past regrets.
When I was young, a kid
Reflecting on childhood innocence and vulnerability.
Then I was plagued by death
During a phase of life, I grappled with the concept of death.
I was suffocating
Feeling suffocated and in need of companionship.
I could use a friend
Expressing a desire for friendship.
She’d be lying
Repetition of someone being dishonest or untrustworthy.
She’d be lying
-She’d be lying
-Liar
Labeling someone as a liar.
She never listened
Describing a lack of receptiveness from another person.
I tipped over the edge
Feeling on the brink of despair, possibly having experienced a breakdown.
I’ve been over the edge
-Think about it all
Reflecting on various aspects of life, past, and present.
Think about the time
-Think about the past
-Think about life
-Think about life
Contemplating life, memories, and mental struggles.
When I was younger
-Think of times
-That made me wonder
-Do I always think about this place
-That my a-agony sank in
-I just think about it
-In my head
-In my head
-You say you want a killer
Responding to someone's desire for intensity and darkness.
I’ll show you everything
-You say you want a monster
-I’ll be your enemy
-I’ve seen it all
Reflecting on personal failures, emotional emptiness, and internal pain.
I’ve been the one who always missed the mark
-I’ve burned the bridge inside this emptiness
-I’ve felt it enter my heart again
-It’s been burned deep inside of every single slit in the skin
-I’ll cut through the pain
Expressing determination to overcome pain and internal struggles.
Assaulted again
-Assaulting my brain
-Cuz every single part of this is bursting the seams
-Bursting the seams
-It’s Bursting the seams
-You and I will take
Sharing a sense of emptiness and questioning one's place in a difficult situation.
My empty heart away
-Who am I to stay
-This happy inside of hell
-So I just take a deep breath
Conveying a struggle with inner demons, contemplating self-harm, and expressing a desire to endure the challenges.
And murder
-I kiss fire and
-I can’t take this anymore
-I swear I’ve got to stay inside of this
-Hell that I am in
Stating a current state of suffering or emotional turmoil.
