Lyrics

Barons with mouths stuffed in shame, well-fed

Barons, who are well-fed but ashamed, have mouths stuffed while witnessing a shameful act.

While you are dragged to death

You, the listener, are metaphorically dragged to death, experiencing hardship or suffering.

You saw angels with pollution inside their heads

You observed angels tainted with impurity or corrupted thoughts inside their minds.

But you still want to play my game

Despite witnessing negativity, there is a desire or willingness to engage in a challenging activity or relationship.


Am I the only one that's ashamed when they hold this prize up to the light?

Expressing personal shame when examining or showcasing a valuable possession.

Do you always feel this way

Questioning if others consistently experience a similar sense of shame.

And your new paradise was just a distraction

A previously anticipated ideal place turns out to be merely a distraction.

You've got a new cross to bear

A new burden or challenge has emerged for you to face.

Your subtraction

A process of deduction or removal is occurring in your life.


Head on the table

A depiction of a troubled state, possibly a metaphor for distress or emotional struggle.

You never left my sight

Someone has always been present in your life, constantly within your sight.

But they did something unstable

Others engaged in an unpredictable or erratic action, possibly causing disruption or chaos.

So you still want to play their game

Despite witnessing instability, there is still a desire to participate in the actions of others.


You're the only one that stays when they hold this shit up to the light

You are the only one remaining steadfast when faced with challenging situations or negativity.

The only one that stays

Reiteration of being the sole individual who remains resilient in difficult circumstances.

And your new parasite was just a distraction

A new negative influence or situation serves as a distraction from previous concerns.

You've got a new cross to bear

A new burden or challenge has emerged, adding to the existing struggles.

Your subtraction

Continuation of the subtractive process, indicating ongoing removal or reduction in one's life.
