Lyrics

I guess I'm still angry

I still harbor feelings of anger.

Still punching walls that look like you

I express my anger by physically venting it on things that remind me of you.

I drop-kicked an old lady

I metaphorically describe a violent act, suggesting intense frustration.

She didn't do anything

An absurd action, emphasizing the irrational nature of the emotions, as the lady is innocent.


There are consequences for inactions, too

Highlighting that not taking action also has consequences.


No common words no language

Expressing a lack of shared communication or understanding.

I've no way to curse you and your burnt skin

Unable to express anger verbally due to a perceived barrier, possibly related to past experiences.

Well, I'm still seeing red

Continued intense emotion, likely anger or frustration.


Dropping excuses like dead skin

Discarding justifications or explanations, suggesting a refusal to excuse certain behaviors.

Ignoring bruises like children

Choosing to ignore the emotional or physical wounds caused by the relationship.

And jumping out of every window left open

Taking risks, possibly indicating a disregard for personal safety or consequences.

And catching every branch on my way down

Navigating challenges with skill and resilience, even if it involves getting hurt.


No ornate tomb or unmarked headstone

Rejecting elaborate memorials, indicating a lack of desire to memorialize the relationship.

I've no place to mourn you so I won't

Expressing a lack of intention to mourn or remember the person.


And you know i'm still pissed

Confirming persistent anger despite a tumultuous life experience.

After a life tempestuous

Reflecting on a turbulent life, possibly caused by the relationship.


And unless you can rise from the dead

Expressing a desire for a significant change or resolution, perhaps in the form of reconciliation.

I'll die like this

Acceptance of a potential outcome if resolution or change does not occur.
