Memories, Solitude
Embracing Shadows: Unveiling the Depths of Memories and Solitude
Lyrics
Step into the flames, be sure not to call my name
Invitation to face challenges or difficulties, emphasizing anonymity.
Just pull me in and pull me under
Symbolic request to be engulfed by challenges or situations.
Pretend that we don't know our fates
Choosing to ignore or deny awareness of predetermined destinies.
Nothing but a false plea. Your hand squeezes mine but all I feel is release
An insincere plea, physical touch lacks emotional connection.
A pitched up resonance only to be tuned down again
Positive moments disrupted, a shift from high to low emotions.
A frequency still heard even with ears sewn shut
Unavoidable emotional impact, even when attempting to block it out.
The sound of your feet falling to the ground after each step
Awareness of consequences or aftermath of actions.
Is there anything left?
Doubt about the existence of meaningful remnants.
Anything more than friction, resistance, to be complicit?
Questioning the nature of the relationship, potential conflict.
Complication is all we've ever caused
Recognition of complications caused by both parties.
Sedation into patience. Temptation into frustration
Transformation of calmness into impatience, desire into frustration.
All that was sacrificed and the memory is lost
Sacrifices made, but memories lost, leading to emptiness.
Scattered away into nothingness until all we know is empty palms
Irretrievable loss, leaving only a void in understanding.
Reaching for solitude in who I once was
Seeking solace in rediscovering one's former self.
I'm black and white and you're grey
Contrast in perspectives, one clear, the other uncertain.
And there's nothing I can say
Inability to influence a decision through words.
To result in decision
Futility in trying to affect a conclusive outcome.
You've made up your mind, but you didn't
Conflict between stated decision and actual mindset.
So all I do is stay
A passive response to the unresolved situation.
Enrich me in your favourite dream and then deceive me
Being immersed in a beloved yet deceptive scenario.
Remind me why I'm afraid to fall asleep
Recollection of reasons for fear, preventing restful sleep.
Keep me here and I'll stay because I can't ever leave
A sense of being trapped, unable to break free from the situation.
Scatter ashes from burnt memories
Symbolic act of letting go of painful memories.
