Shake
Shake the Chains of Demons: A Poetic Journey into Transformation
Lyrics
Oh no
Expressing concern or surprise
Now the demons awake
Indicating the awakening of troubling thoughts or emotions
He's been climbing the trees in my dreams
Metaphorically describing the intrusion of unsettling thoughts or emotions into one's subconscious
I wish I could shake
Expressing a desire to rid oneself of a disturbing mental image or burden
The vision of this weight on the back of its cold modesty
Describing the burden as a vision, emphasizing its weight and the cold nature of modesty
And I told you that my worlds on a chain
Stating that the speaker's world is constrained or controlled
But nothing ever stays the same
Highlighting the impermanence of things
Then you told me that the worlds gonna change
Contrasting the previous line, suggesting a forthcoming change in the world
And now its never gonna be we're
Conveying a sense of separation or loss, indicating that things will not be the same
Never gonna be the same
Reiterating the idea that a significant change has occurred
But I fell like a fish for a line
Using a metaphor to express vulnerability or being deceived
I've been caught I've been had throw me back
Acknowledging being caught or deceived, suggesting a desire to be released
But give me some kind
Requesting empathy or understanding
Of reason to refine on the ways of which I react
Asking for a logical or rational explanation for the speaker's reactions
And I told you that my worlds on a chain
Repeating the idea that the speaker's world is restricted or controlled
But nothing ever stays the same
Reiterating the notion that change is inevitable
Then you told me that the worlds gonna change
Acknowledging the predicted change in the world
And now its never gonna be we're
Emphasizing that the world will never be the same again
Never gonna be the same
Reiterating the idea that a significant change has occurred
Mmhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Non-verbal vocalizations, possibly expressing emotion or contemplation
Mmhhhhhh
-Mmhhhhhhhhhhhhh
-Mmhhhhhh
-And there's no doubt in its in a shooting star
Asserting certainty in the existence of something special or remarkable
It's turning inside out to tell me
Describing a transformative experience, perhaps a realization of identity
A who we are
Pondering existential questions about identity
Mmhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Non-verbal vocalizations, possibly emphasizing a contemplative mood
Mmhhhhhh
-Mmhhhhhhhhhhhhh
-Mmhhhhhh
-And I told you that my worlds on a chain
Repeating the idea that the speaker's world is restricted or controlled
But nothing ever stays the same
Reiterating the impermanence of things
Then you told me that the worlds gonna change
Acknowledging the predicted change in the world
And now its never gonna be we're
Emphasizing that the world will never be the same again
Never gonna be the same
Reiterating the idea that a significant change has occurred
