For Those Left Behind
Embracing the Unseen Struggle: Much the Same's Anthem for Those Who Strive
Lyrics
Is it so hard to understand?
Expressing frustration or disbelief at the difficulty of understanding a certain situation.
You got left behind 'cause you wanted to do something with your life
Highlighting that someone got left behind because they aspired for a meaningful life, rejecting mediocrity.
You wanted something where mediocrity would not suffice
Emphasizing the desire for something more than mediocrity in life.
And I know the scene is bleeding, but I can't shake this feeling that's inside
Acknowledging the challenges in the music scene but struggling with an internal feeling.
I know this life's not for everyone but I'm still gonna try
Recognizing that the chosen lifestyle is not for everyone, yet expressing determination to pursue it.
We could give up now, let ourselves just drown tonight
Suggesting a temptation to give up and succumb to challenges.
Never voice my point of view and no more songs to sing for you,
Considering the possibility of not expressing personal opinions and abandoning artistic expression.
But this time, not out without a fight
Deciding not to give up without putting up a fight this time.
Time keeps running out. I wake up each day and my pen and stare though my hazy eyes
Reflecting on the passage of time and the struggle to find inspiration for creativity.
At the blank sheet that's in front of me, but no one wants to hear me sing about
Expressing reluctance to sing about the challenges in the scene despite their existence.
How the scene is bleeding, but I can't take this feeling that's inside
Reiterating the internal struggle despite the awareness that the chosen life may not be universally appealing.
I know this life's not for everyone, but I'm still gonna try
Restating the commitment to pursue a life that may not be suitable for everyone.
For years it's been built up and I won't let them tear it down
Affirming the resilience built over the years and a determination not to let external forces destroy it.
We've bled for this scene and with our blood we'll wipe the stains clean
Symbolically connecting the scene to blood and expressing a commitment to preserve it.
For all those that were left behind, don't think we'll ever say goodbye
Promising not to say goodbye to those left behind and expressing a perpetual connection.
You're always with us in our hearts and on our minds
Assuring that those left behind are remembered and always present emotionally.
We'll try to cure this disease that mocks everything
Expressing a commitment to address and overcome challenges affecting the scene.
That you wanted it to be, it's everything to me
Describing the scene as everything the departed wanted it to be, holding personal significance.
