Lyrics
I hear their voices inside my head
I hear internal voices, possibly representing thoughts or influences.
There's no denying it's my private hell as
Acknowledging a personal struggle or difficult situation while lying in bed.
I lie in bed
Reflecting on a private hell or inner turmoil during moments of rest.
I take a look around and see myself
Observing oneself and the surroundings, possibly seeking self-awareness.
In twenty years will I be them
Contemplating the future and the possibility of becoming like others.
I've taken all I can stand
Expressing frustration or reaching a limit in enduring difficulties.
Afraid of what kind of man I am
Fearful self-reflection, questioning the nature of one's character.
Does everything stay the same
Pondering whether circumstances and behaviors will remain constant.
Or will I break the chain
Contemplating the possibility of breaking a generational pattern or cycle.
Secrets, emotions, and wounds concealed
Referencing hidden aspects like secrets, emotions, and unresolved wounds.
Spirits are broken, the deepest scars that I'll never heal
Acknowledging deep emotional wounds that may never fully heal.
They'll be back handed down from father to son
Expectation that struggles or issues will be passed down through generations.
A closet full of skeletons
Metaphorically describing a collection of concealed past mistakes or regrets.
I've taken all I can stand
Reiterating a limit in tolerating difficult situations or emotions.
Afraid of what kind of man I am
Expressing fear or uncertainty about the type of person one has become.
Does everything stay the same
Questioning the permanence of current circumstances or behaviors.
Or will I break the chain
Pondering the possibility of breaking the cycle or pattern in the family.
I will get by
Expressing determination to overcome challenges with understanding.
With a little understanding
Highlighting the importance of empathy and comprehension in facing difficulties.
'Cause it's my own life after all
Affirming personal agency and ownership over one's life.
I've taken all I can stand
Reiterating a limit in enduring difficulties or internal struggles.
Afraid of what kind of man I am
Expressing fear or uncertainty about the type of person one has become.
Does everything stay the same
Questioning the permanence of current circumstances or behaviors.
Or will I break the chain
Pondering the possibility of breaking the cycle or pattern in the family.
