Rising from Ashes: Unveiling the Meaning Behind Parkway Drive's Powerful Anthem
Lyrics
This is life
This represents life.
This is worthless
Life is perceived as worthless or lacking value.
Is there consequence? This apathy is murderous
Questioning if there are consequences; expressing that apathy is destructive.
Hope is dead, buried by regret
Hope is non-existent, overwhelmed by regret.
Alive for nothing and dying for even less
Existing without purpose and dying with even less significance.
Is this the path we've chosen?
Reflecting on the chosen path in life.
Our minds and our future left to rot
Our minds and future are decaying.
These lives are worth nothing
Emphasizing that these lives have no value.
Our lives are worth nothing. Fuck
Reiterating that our lives are worthless with frustration.
As we watch our dreams turn into dust
Observing dreams turning into dust without achieving fulfillment.
On these cold streets beneath this hollow corpse of a life
Describing a desolate life on cold streets.
Their world casts shadows and it's eating us alive.
External influences cast shadows, consuming and destroying lives.
We are the working dead
Identifying as the "working dead," suggesting a life devoid of purpose.
Haunted by the ghost of unanswered dreams
Haunted by unfulfilled dreams that linger like ghosts.
We are the flesh and blood of a lost generation
Being part of a lost generation, characterized by flesh and blood.
The deceased and forgotten
Describing the collective as deceased and forgotten.
The voiceless and consumed
Depicting the collective as voiceless and consumed by external forces.
We're buried and broken and we're rising against you
Despite being buried and broken, there is a rising against the oppressive forces.
So this is life, and are we so worthless?
Reflecting on life's worth and questioning if it is truly worthless.
We've clawed our way back
Expressing resilience and determination in overcoming adversity.
They can't destroy us
Asserting that they cannot be destroyed because there's nothing left to lose.
‘Cause we've got nothing left to lose
Despite hardships, hate-fueled hearts continue burning with passion.
These hate-fueled hearts keep burning
Resisting conformity and refusing to turn back.
We push against the grain and we won't turn back
Equipped and ready for resistance, born from the shadows.
Armed to the teeth
Driven by a burning desire for revenge.
Born from the shadows
Reiterating the source of their existence from the shadows.
Burning for revenge
Expressing a burning passion for revenge against perceived wrongs.
We're burning for revenge
Continuing the theme of burning for revenge and resistance.
