Lullaby
Journey of Self-Reflection: Persian Rugs' Lullaby
Lyrics
Reachin' out for energy
Expressing a desire for energy.
That you used to give to me
Reflecting on past generosity and support received.
I guess I just wasn't worthy
Feeling unworthy of the expectations placed.
Of all the things you wanted me to be
Acknowledging inadequacy in meeting expectations.
Searching for serenity
Seeking inner peace and former self.
For someone I used to be
Searching for a previous version of oneself.
By now I should find inner peace
Expecting inner peace but facing mental manipulation.
And realize that you're mindfucking me
Realizing emotional manipulation and confusion.
And I know it will never be the same
Acknowledging an irreversible change.
And when it falls down there's nobody to blame
No one to blame when everything collapses.
And when it's all burning up to ashes who's coming to the rescue
Contemplating a situation in ruins with no savior.
I travelled the world just to realize you were a myth
Realizing a person or idea was a false belief.
A product of my expectation
Recognizing the influence of personal expectations.
They say determinism is solely responsible for the situation, well
Questioning determinism's role in the situation.
I'll be the judge of that, I'll be
Asserting the speaker's role as the judge of their fate.
I'll be the judge of that, I'll be
-I'll be the judge of that, I'll be
-I'll be the judge of that
-Driven by hard feelings and self hatred
Driven by negative emotions and self-loathing.
There's just nothing left to see
Feeling that there's nothing left to observe or experience.
It's all becoming overwhelming
Overwhelmed by the intensity of emotions.
The fact that we create our own demise
Acknowledging personal responsibility for downfall.
Supposed to be a team now we allies
Highlighting a failed collaboration or partnership.
He ain't got nothing on you baby
Comparing someone else unfavorably to a past love.
You turned your back on me while I was down lately
Feeling abandoned during difficult times.
You're just too blind to see
Not recognizing the impact of actions on the speaker.
Nothing but sore feelings
Emphasizing negative emotions without understanding.
You think you know me but I...
Challenging others' understanding of the speaker.
I'll be the judge of that, I'll be
Reiterating the speaker's role as the judge of their fate.
I'll be the judge of that, I'll be
-I'll be the judge of that
-And I know it will never be the same
Accepting the irreparable change in a relationship.
And when it falls down there's nobody to blame
No one to blame for the collapse of the situation.
And when it's all burning up to ashes who's coming to the rescue
No savior in a situation leading to destruction.
I travelled the world just to realize that
Realization after extensive exploration.
I'll be the judge of that, I'll be
Reiterating the speaker's role as the judge of their fate.
I'll be the judge of that, I'll be
-I'll be the judge of that, I'll be
-I'll be the judge of that
