Heartless
Heartless Redemption: A Symphony of Liberation
Lyrics
Piercing stare
A penetrating gaze or intense look
Perceive the heart that I am holding
Understanding or perceiving the emotions or essence of the heart I possess
Metallic trails
Trail of tears or emotional pain depicted metaphorically as metallic
Stream down my arms
Symbolic representation of sorrow flowing down the arms
It loved to swear
The heart enjoyed swearing or asserting falsely
Upon the lies that it foretold to me
Lies told by the heart, leading to betrayal or deception
And I: its pawn
The narrator being controlled or used by the heart
Guided blindly unto harm
Being led blindly into harm by the heart's influence
Laid so bare
Exposed or laid bare, where only crimson (blood) is visible
all that's visible is crimson
The vividness of blood, possibly indicating intense emotions
Still feel its primal song
Feeling the primal or instinctive nature despite feeling hollow inside
Though hollowed out inside
Despite feeling emptied, the narrator is ready for something
I prepare
Preparing oneself for a deep emotional experience or revelation
To drink deep its well of wisdom
To deeply understand or absorb the heart's wisdom or experiences
Rend away the sinew
Metaphorical tearing or breaking away from the heart's influence
fitting, bitter ending to its spite
An appropriate and bitter ending to the heart's malice or anger
In my hands
Having control or power over the heart, represented as something lifeless
To carve away
Even in the darkest times, the heart remains inactive or dead
A lifeless star
Carving away or removing the essence of life from the heart
Makes darkest day
Metaphorical representation of the heart's influence on the worst days
Beyond reprieve
Beyond any chance for pardon or forgiveness
No more to stray
No longer deviating or wandering away from a chosen path
Silenced call
A call or feeling within the narrator that has been silenced
Extinguished flame
Putting out or extinguishing a passionate or intense emotion
There, it's done
Completion or achievement of ending the heart's control
I've ended its dominion
Putting an end to the heart's dominance or rule
Blood red tyrant
Referring to the heart as a powerful, dominant, and tyrannical force
Now overthrown
The heart's power or authority is now defeated or removed
Empty chest
A chest devoid of emotions or familiar feelings
Without familiar rhythm
No longer feeling the heart's familiar beat or rhythm
Its knowledge, mine
Assimilating or taking on the heart's knowledge and experiences
Deepest secrets, shown
Revealing the deepest secrets or insights previously held by the heart
As cold as ancient stone
The heart, now ruined or damaged, is no longer owned or possessed
The ruined heart has been disowned
Accepting that the pain associated with the heart is individual and personal
The pain is mine, and mine alone
The heart's grievances or wrongdoings are finally acknowledged and made right
Its grievances at last atoned
