In Love and Hate
Strangled Dreams in the Urban Maze: A Tale of Love and Hate
Lyrics
She gets up early, but all that she sees
Despite waking early, her surroundings are filled with uncertainties and unclear paths.
Are other shadows along her way
She encounters various uncertainties or obstacles along her journey.
She doesn’t have friends, no goal, no meaning
She lacks companionship, direction, and purpose in life.
But that’s nothing new to her
This lack of direction isn't a new feeling for her.
Her thoughts are empty, no way to envision
Her mind is devoid of ideas or plans for the future.
She hates, she loves her country
She harbors conflicting emotions towards her country.
Her past keeps her restrained, so unfree
Her past experiences confine and limit her freedom.
Someone like-minded is hard to meet
Finding someone who shares her thoughts is a challenging task.
Strangled dreams in this huge city
Her aspirations are stifled amidst the overwhelming nature of the city.
He works too hard, until he could drop
He overworks himself to exhaustion.
And looks stronger than he really is
His outward appearance conceals his true emotional strength.
Rough shell, soft core he’s longing for more
He desires more depth and emotional connection despite his tough exterior.
And tries to stay in control
He attempts to maintain a sense of control over his life.
He plays the winning guy, there’s sadness in his eyes
Despite appearing successful, there's an underlying sadness in him.
He hates, he loves his country
He also experiences conflicting emotions about his country.
His past keeps him restrained, so unfree
His past restricts his freedom and choices.
Someone like-minded is hard to meet
Connecting with like-minded individuals is a challenge for him.
Strangled dreams in this huge city
His dreams and aspirations are constrained in the vastness of the city.
They long for more
Both of them desire more in life.
(So much more)
Their desire for more in life is significant.
There’s so much more
There's an acknowledgment of unfulfilled potential or desires.
Thinking is not required and keeps them uninspired
They lack inspiration due to a lack of deep thinking.
They hate, they love their country
Both harbor complex feelings towards their country.
Their past keeps them restrained, so unfree
Their past experiences confine their choices and sense of freedom.
Someone like-minded is hard to meet
Finding someone who shares their views and thoughts is a challenge.
Strangled dreams in this huge city
Their dreams and ambitions feel suffocated in the city.
They do not trust this peace
They don't believe in the tranquility around them.
Just empty streets, the big void, no place to meet
They feel a lack of community or gathering spots in the city.
There’s no chance to escape reality
Escaping from their current reality seems impossible.
Visions are senseless, a luxury
They consider having aspirations or visions as impractical or unattainable luxuries.
