No Easy Way Out
Trapped in Dreams: The Weight of Unending Struggle
Lyrics
Looking to the mirror
Contemplating oneself in the mirror
From the other side
Reflecting from a different perspective or state
Seeing her reflection
Observing the image of a woman
And it blows my mind
Surprising or astonishing
Trying to deny it
Attempting to reject or disown something
But damage is done
Irreversible harm has been inflicted
I'll just run as always
Intention to escape or avoid, a recurring behavior
But the race is run
Despite efforts, the competition or struggle is concluded
You've got to tell me it's over now
Seeking confirmation that a relationship is ended
I'm trapped inside of a dream
Feeling trapped within a surreal experience
The crushing weight on my shoulders now
Intense burden on the speaker
Is bearing down and it seems
The weight is oppressive and apparent
There's just no easy way out
No straightforward or simple resolution
No easy way out
Reinforcement of the lack of an easy solution
Read the daily fiction, Superman is dead
Engaging with fictional narratives, acknowledging a hero's demise
Crushing coins of silver, imitating lead
Deceptive appearances, imitation of value
Then if you will fix the children of the past
Addressing the neglect of previous generations
I guess their's isn't welcome, doesn't time move fast
Time's rapid passage, making the past unwelcome
You've got to tell me it's over now
Reiteration of seeking confirmation for a relationship's end
I'm trapped inside of a dream
Continued sense of being ensnared in an unreal experience
The crushing weight on my shoulders now
Persistent and overwhelming burden on the speaker
Is bearing down and it seems
The weight is pressing down, causing distress
There's just no easy way out
Reaffirmation of the absence of an easy solution
No easy way out
Emphasizing the difficulty of finding a resolution
Night in the shadow of man
Night as a metaphor for challenges or difficulties
This is the dawn of the dead
A metaphorical representation of a dark, challenging era
Don't let it live in your head
Advising against letting challenges dominate thoughts
And then now as the sabbath begins
Reference to the beginning of a dark period or event
It wakes your nightmare again
The recurrence of a nightmarish experience
So run away if you can
Suggesting escape from challenges if possible
So just run
Repetition of the advice to run away
Run as fast as you can
Escaping with maximum speed
You've got to tell me it's over now
Repeating the desire for confirmation of the end of a relationship
I'm trapped inside of a dream
Continued feeling of being trapped in a dream-like state
The crushing weight on my shoulders now
The burden on the speaker remains intense
Is bearing down and it seems
The weight is persistently pressing down
There's just no easy way out
Reiterating the absence of an easy solution
Too late too tell me it's over now
Acknowledging that it's too late for confirmation
Falling apart at the seams
Experiencing a breakdown or disintegration
No angel sits on my shoulders now
Lack of guidance or support, inner turmoil
I hold my head and it screams
The speaker is overwhelmed and distressed
There's just no easy way out
Reaffirmation of the absence of an easy solution
No easy way out
Emphasizing the persistent difficulty in finding resolution
