Dead on the Vine
Fading Hopes: Unveiling the Dark Journey of Dead on the Vine
Lyrics
When you take license go in for the kill
When you take a risk or freedom, be prepared to go all the way
You open your throat and choke down a sweet pill
You willingly accept and consume something pleasant or deceptive
But as you will find the effects soon wear off
The positive effects of your actions will fade away
And find that there is no more room at the trough
Realizing there's no more opportunity or space for your desires
Push back the thoughts try to keep them at bay
Suppressing negative thoughts, attempting to keep them away
Saving them up for a much darker day
Delaying and storing emotional burdens for a darker future
Taking my steps with a push from behind
Advancing with external motivation, not self-driven
No longer a slave to the grind
Breaking free from being constantly enslaved by routine or work
You can't read the signs, because you are blind
Unable to perceive warning signs due to blindness or ignorance
You just fell behind
Falling behind in understanding or adapting to circumstances
You're dead on the vine
Being stagnant or unproductive, like a plant withering on the vine
Is time on your side and are you running free?
Questioning if time is in your favor and if you are living freely
To get to the place that you wanted to be
Striving to reach the desired destination or goal
Are you the man you were hoping to find?
Evaluating if you have become the person you aspired to be
Not long till you're losing your mind
Approaching a point of mental instability or losing control
You can't read the signs, because you are blind
Remaining oblivious to warnings or signals due to blindness
You just fell behind
Falling further behind in comprehension or progress
You're dead on the vine
Reiterating a state of stagnation or decline, like a dying vine
You can't read the signs
Emphasizing the inability to recognize warnings or signs
You just fell behind
Reiterating a state of falling behind in understanding or awareness
You're blurring the lines
Confusing the boundaries or distinctions between things
You're feeling just fine
Experiencing contentment or satisfaction despite the blurred lines
Your dead on a vine
Emphasizing the state of being stagnant or unproductive
Your dead on a vine
Reiterating the stagnant state, using repetition for emphasis
Your dead on a vine
Repeating the metaphor of stagnation and lack of progress
