Dead Weight
Unveiling the Struggle: Dead Weight's Poignant Reflections
Lyrics
He's a kid he's a soul he's a rag doll
Describing a person as young, spiritual, and vulnerable.
He's a chemical
Suggesting a chemical or synthetic aspect to the person's identity.
He's a bag in the wind he's a tag in
Metaphorically portraying the person as insignificant or easily moved.
He's a swimmer in a current
Comparing the person to a swimmer navigating through life's challenges.
He's a bone holding flesh he's a blood test
Highlighting the physical aspects of the person with a focus on fragility.
He's a messenger
Describing the person as a messenger, perhaps carrying a message or burden.
He's the cold on an old snow-covered road
Depicting a cold and challenging environment that the person faces.
He's trapped inside a mirror
Imagining the person trapped within their own reflection or situation.
Bite the edge, get your teeth in, cock the gun, feel it breathing
Encouraging confrontation and engagement with challenges.
Taste the noise, begging to leave control, eating from a bleeding hand
Exploring sensations and struggles associated with control and external influences.
Pulling on a dead weight
Expressing the effort of dealing with a burdensome and lifeless weight.
Pulling on a dead weight
Reiterating the idea of grappling with a heavy, lifeless burden.
He's a face on the end of a chain, he's a wrecking ball
Describing the person as destructive, possibly causing harm to others.
He's erased what he came here to save
Suggesting the person has lost or compromised what they intended to protect.
He's the ripple on the surface
Referring to the person's impact or influence on the world as a ripple effect.
He's afraid when he talks so he shuts off
Expressing fear and avoidance in communication, leading to isolation.
He's a montage
Describing the person's life as a montage, possibly fragmented or disjointed.
There's a rock in his skin where he digs in
Highlighting internal struggles and challenges faced by the person.
But the diamonds buried deeper
Suggesting hidden strengths or valuable qualities beneath the surface.
Keep pulling up
Encouraging resilience and persistence in the face of challenges.
Pullin' on a dead weight
Reiterating the effort of dealing with a burdensome and lifeless weight.
Keep crawling up
Emphasizing the ongoing struggle and progression despite difficulties.
Pulling on a dead weight
Repeating the idea of grappling with a heavy, lifeless burden.
