Lyrics
And I doubt you, the first time I let it go
Expressing skepticism or disbelief towards someone for the first time.
You say virtue but animals are all we know
Highlighting a contrast between the concept of virtue and the primal nature of animals.
I've seen my last breath that I will take
Reflecting on the inevitability of one's final breath.
And seas will rise but it's a shame to go that way
Anticipating challenges (seas rising) but expressing a reluctance to face them in a particular way.
And how far we've come too late
Acknowledging the progress that has been made, but recognizing it's too late to fully appreciate it.
And how much we've grown so slow
Noting gradual growth over time.
And I know I know that we will turn to dust
Accepting the impermanence of life and the eventual transformation into dust.
I'll hold my head up straight spine
Committing to maintaining resilience and a strong stance.
And pray we'll be just fine
Expressing hope and a prayer for a positive outcome.
My body's breaking
Describing physical and emotional breakdown.
Breaking from the inside out
Highlighting the internal source of the breaking.
My structures shaking
Conveying the instability of personal structures, especially after experiencing doubt.
Shaking since we tasted doubt
Linking the shaking to the introduction of doubt in their life.
So leave me here
Expressing a desire to be left alone to cope with challenges.
To play my victim card
Embracing a victim mentality as a coping mechanism.
I'll be right here alone
Asserting independence by choosing to be alone in difficult times.
And how far we've come too late
Reiterating the acknowledgment of progress coming too late.
And how much we've grown so slow
Reemphasizing slow growth over time.
And I know I know that we will turn to dust
Reaffirming the acceptance of the eventual transformation into dust.
I'll hold my head up straight spine
Restating the commitment to resilience and a strong stance.
And pray we'll be just fine
Repeating the expression of hope and a prayer for a positive outcome.
Time it keeps running down
Highlighting the unstoppable passage of time.
The world keeps spinning round
Observing the constant and cyclical nature of the world.
Time it keeps running down
Reiterating the relentless progression of time.
The world keeps spinning round
Reaffirming the perpetual cycle of the world's existence.
How far we've come too late
Echoing the sentiment of acknowledging progress coming too late.
And how much we've grown so slow
Reemphasizing the theme of slow, gradual growth.
And I know I know machines will turn to rush
Anticipating a shift to a mechanized and rushed state, possibly referring to societal changes.
Let's hold our heads up straight spine
Encouraging maintaining resilience and a strong stance amid changes.
And pray we'll be just fine
Repeating the expression of hope and a prayer for a positive outcome.
