Unveiling Hidden Chambers: Life's Burdens in Photo Fire's 'Lilac'
Lyrics
Turn around you home is like a tomb
Turning around, your home feels stifling and lifeless, akin to a tomb.
Forget about who built this place for you
Forget the person who constructed this dwelling for you.
With lock and key you're keeping me clawing at the door
You're keeping me out with a locked door, causing me to desperately try to gain access.
Can't sit and watch while you live so carefully
I can't idly observe while you live so cautiously and carefully.
Find what you're lacking once you stop looking
Discover what you lack when you stop actively seeking or searching for it.
In the cool shadow of personality
Under the cover of an appealing facade or persona.
You'll find where you're hiding once you stop searching
You'll realize where you're hiding when you cease your relentless quest.
Can you start to feel guilt and shame calling your name
Are you starting to feel guilt and shame, hearing them call out to you?
Tumble through you're sleeping locked in stone
You're tumbling through life, feeling trapped and unchanging.
Simple gods have given a place for you
Simple or basic entities have designated a space for you.
Getting out of bed again
You're going through the motions of getting out of bed again.
Miss not knowing what I'm missing
Yearning for the feeling of not realizing what you're missing.
It's not hard to hold me down
It's not challenging to keep me restrained or subdued.
It's not hard
It's not difficult.
Hold me down now
Keep me restrained now.
Find what you're lacking once you stop looking
Discover what you lack when you stop actively seeking or searching for it.
In the cool shadow of personality
Under the cover of an appealing facade or persona.
You'll find where you're hiding once you stop searching
You'll realize where you're hiding when you cease your relentless quest.
Can you start to feel guilt and shame calling your name
Are you starting to feel guilt and shame, hearing them call out to you?
Find what you're lacking once you stop looking
Discover what you lack when you stop actively seeking or searching for it.
In the cool shadow of personality
Under the cover of an appealing facade or persona.
You'll find where you're hiding once you stop searching
You'll realize where you're hiding when you cease your relentless quest.
Can you start to feel guilt and shame calling your name
Are you starting to feel guilt and shame, hearing them call out to you?
Home is a tomb
Home symbolizes a stifling and lifeless place.
Home is a tomb
Reiterates the idea that home feels like a tomb, emphasizing its suffocating nature.
