Lyrics
Experience these things
Expressing the desire to go through certain experiences
My chest digs further in and it gets hard to breathe
Feeling a heavy emotional burden, making it difficult to breathe
Don't fight it
Encouraging acceptance rather than resistance
Make this easy
Suggesting a preference for a simple and effortless approach
Sometimes I wish I had wings
Expressing a longing for freedom and escape
Fly far away from this life
Desire to fly away from the challenges of life
It's a long road
Emphasizing the difficulty and length of the journey ahead
It's a long road
-As the water beads upon the window
Observing water droplets on a window, possibly symbolizing tears
Turn the sad song up on the radio
Choosing to listen to a sad song to amplify emotions
The fault with me is a memory
Identifying a personal flaw as a lingering memory
When the flesh moves on
Reflecting on the passage of time and the inevitability of change
Such curiosity
Expressing a sense of curiosity and contemplation
These thoughts go on all day
Acknowledging persistent thoughts and the difficulty of overcoming them
And it takes hold of me
-But fighting isn't easy
-Sometimes I wish I had wings
Reiterating the desire for escape and freedom
Fly far away from this life
Emphasizing the arduous nature of the journey
It's a long road
-It's a long road
-As the water beads upon the window
Continuing the metaphor of water droplets on the window
Turn the sad song up on the radio
Choosing to intensify emotions by turning up a sad song
Will the voices haunt when the flesh moves on
Questioning whether haunting memories persist after death
And the clouds block out the rays
Suggesting a struggle with emotional darkness
When the feeling hangs upon a halo
Describing the lingering of a particular emotion
I can only try my best just to let it go
Attempting to let go of a difficult emotion
The fault with me is a memory
Reiterating a personal flaw tied to memory
And the things I have to say
Expressing a need to communicate suppressed thoughts
Resting now, their bodies hit the ground
Describing a moment of rest and contemplation
Nightmares creep over me I hear the sounds
Experiencing disturbing nightmares and sounds
(Yes they all hit the ground)
Repeating the impact of bodies hitting the ground
Children scream, their mothers bleed hung upside down
Depicting a gruesome scene with the suffering of children and mothers
Scarlet ropes and sadistic minds surround me
Describing a dark and threatening environment
I spent all of my life confined in secrecy
Expressing a lifetime spent in secrecy
What you say?
Asking for clarification or confirmation
In spite a shell of what I am on the inside
Acknowledging an external facade that contrasts with inner struggles
Clouds of blackness abounding
Describing a pervasive darkness with no discernible elements
There's nothing about
Feeling a sense of descent or loss
I'm falling, falling, I'm falling below
Continuing the descent metaphor with a sense of falling
(There's nothing about)
-As the water beads upon the window
Returning to the motif of water droplets on the window
Turn the sad song up on the radio
Choosing to intensify emotions through music
Will the voices haunt when the flesh moves on
Questioning the persistence of haunting voices after death
And the clouds block out the rays
Describing a situation where emotional darkness obscures positivity
When the feeling hangs upon a halo
Describing the persistence of a particular emotion
I can only try my best just to let it go
Striving to let go of a difficult emotion despite challenges
The fault with me is a memory
Reiterating a personal flaw tied to memory and unspoken thoughts
And the things I have to say
Expressing the need to communicate suppressed thoughts
