Nightmare Of The 3rd Gen
Nightmare Unveiled: Echoes of Isolation in Mellowpunk's Melodic Despair
Lyrics
Each time the door opens I'm interrupted
Feeling interrupted each time the door opens.
Hinges screaming
Doors making a loud, unpleasant noise.
I'm not composed but I can't help it
Not in control of emotions, walls seemingly disintegrating.
The walls are melting
Perception of reality breaking down.
Away goes the fire of the vintage prophet
The fading influence or essence of a wise figure.
A drowning comet
Feeling overwhelmed, like a sinking comet.
That picture's laughing
An image or memory causing laughter.
Your eyes are cracking
Eyes showing signs of distress.
I'm not at this moment myself
Not feeling like oneself in the present moment.
I just want to sleep
Desire for escape through sleep.
I'm gonna call it a bad bad dream
Referring to the experience as a nightmare.
Place the gun out of reach
Removing access to a potentially harmful tool (gun).
Stay away from the beach
Advising to stay away from a specific place (beach).
You're gonna be on your own
Anticipation of being isolated.
Maybe if you'd coped then it wouldn't have happened
Suggesting coping could prevent negative outcomes.
Blood in the scratches
Symbolic references to wounds or scars.
Creaks in the boards of the echoed mansion
Mention of unsettling sounds in a mansion.
I'm also a girl
Identity as a girl is acknowledged.
Here in this room with a premade casket
In a room with a prepared coffin, facing mortality.
Belief in the people
Belief in people who harm others metaphorically.
Who constantly sharpen their knives
People constantly ready to harm others.
To make play things from the people they're thrown
Manipulation of people as if they are objects.
I forgot I was me
Loss of self-awareness or identity.
I'm gonna call it a bad bad dream
Reiteration of the experience as a bad dream.
Place the gun on the beach
Changing the location of the potential harm (gun on the beach).
All your friends in the sea
Imagining friends in a perilous situation.
You're gonna be alone
Anticipation of loneliness.
You're gonna be alone
Emphasizing the inevitability of being alone.
You're gonna be alone, alone, alone
Repetition of the theme of solitude.
You're gonna be alone
Expressing the certainty of being alone.
Don't let me be alone
Plea to avoid isolation.
Don't let me be alone
Repetition of the plea to avoid being alone.
Don't let me be alone, alone alone,
Intensification of the plea against solitude.
Don't let me be alone
Continued plea to avoid being alone.
Don't let me be alone
Repetition emphasizing the fear of solitude.
Don't let me be alone
Intensified expression of the fear of being alone.
Don't let me be alone, alone alone
Final, desperate plea to avoid loneliness.
