Fading Reflections: A Journey through Chaos and Redemption
Lyrics
I better learn how to hold my breath
I need to learn how to control my emotions or reactions.
It's a long way down
The situation is challenging and difficult.
Back to the bottom of the deep end to lay my body
I feel like I'm sinking back into a difficult situation.
In the thinness of my skin
I'm feeling emotionally vulnerable or sensitive.
I feel the pressure kicking in up from the bottom of my tippy toes
I'm starting to feel stress or pressure.
Now look at what we've got here
Expressing surprise or disbelief at the situation.
Circling my thoughts yeah
My thoughts are constantly recurring or circling around something.
Just to close the distance between my head and my heart
I'm trying to reconcile my thoughts and feelings.
Took a day off yeah
Took a break from something.
Tried to get my thoughts clear
Attempting to clear my mind or gain clarity.
But fell apart behind all of the faded chaos
Feeling overwhelmed amidst a chaotic situation.
I didn't mean to lose my balance in this mess that I made
Regretting losing control in a situation I created.
But I'm slipping out of consciousness
Starting to lose consciousness or awareness.
While choking on every breath that I take
Struggling to breathe and feeling suffocated.
And there's no getting through to me
I'm emotionally distant or unreachable.
Buried down six feet under what I used to be
Feeling buried or overwhelmed by my past self.
I'm fading from my own reflection oh
I'm fading away from recognizing who I used to be.
Maybe I lost myself
Reflecting on losing my true identity.
What a pretty sentiment playing out here
Commenting on the attractive nature of a sentiment despite the circumstances.
Daydreaming of the fallout in black and white
Imagining the aftermath in a dramatic manner.
Makes me want to lose my mind in the mayhem
Feeling drawn to chaos or confusion.
When the flames and the rubble start to block out the light
Feeling overwhelmed when negativity overshadows positivity.
Yeah I said I wouldn't go there
Initially resisting but losing control eventually.
Dizzy but I don't care
Feeling disoriented but unconcerned.
spinning in the motion of another vivid nightmare
Caught up in the cycle of a vivid, unsettling dream.
Took a day off yeah
Took a break from something.
Tried to get my thoughts clear
Attempting to clear my mind or gain clarity.
But fell apart behind all of the faded chaos
Feeling overwhelmed amidst a chaotic situation.
I didn't mean to lose my balance in this mess that I made
Regretting losing control in a situation I created.
But I'm slipping out of consciousness
Starting to lose consciousness or awareness.
While choking on every breath that I take
Struggling to breathe and feeling suffocated.
And there's no getting through to me
I'm emotionally distant or unreachable.
Buried down six feet under what I used to be
Feeling buried or overwhelmed by my past self.
I'm fading from my own reflection oh
I'm fading away from recognizing who I used to be.
Maybe I lost myself
Reflecting on losing my true identity.
So I lift my hands up off my side
Letting go of resistance or control.
And let my body slowly drift away
Allowing myself to drift away from the situation.
I'll fade away
Accepting the idea of fading away.
Cos I didn't mean to lose my balance in this mess that I made
Regretting losing control in a situation I created.
But I'm slipping out of consciousness
Starting to lose consciousness or awareness.
While choking on every breath that I take
Struggling to breathe and feeling suffocated.
And there's no getting through to me
I'm emotionally distant or unreachable.
Buried down six feet under what I used to be
Feeling buried or overwhelmed by my past self.
I'm fading from my own reflection oh
I'm fading away from recognizing who I used to be.
Maybe I lost myself
Reflecting on losing my true identity.
Maybe I lost myself ohhh
Expressing the possibility of losing oneself.
Maybe I lost myself ohhh
Continuing the expression of potentially losing oneself.
How did I lose myself
Reflecting on the actual experience of losing oneself.
