Mistakes and Skeletons
Embracing Shadows: Navigating Mistakes and Skeletons in the Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Back and forth in my head
Contemplating back and forth within my thoughts
Shed my skin or hide me instead
Considering whether to reveal my true self or conceal it
So the story goes again
Repeating a familiar narrative
I'll agree to disagree
Willing to accept differing opinions
Tell me what you think is best for me
Seeking advice on what is best for me
Seems like I'm the black sheep
Feeling like an outsider or nonconformist
Splintered apart at centerfold
Breaking apart at a vulnerable point
Break away from all I have known
Breaking away from familiar surroundings
Because of you
Attributing actions or changes to someone else
So just pick a side
Requesting a decision or commitment
Go cast your stones
Inviting criticism or judgment
If I get hurt I blame myself
Taking responsibility for personal pain
Is it enough if there's something else
Questioning the adequacy of a situation
Something else
Referring to an unspecified alternative
I see colors in your eyes
Perceiving darkness or negativity in someone's eyes
They're dark enough to block out the sun
Describing a level of darkness that overshadows positivity
Set a fire to burn me out
Facing a destructive force that aims to extinguish enthusiasm
I won't explain where I've been
Choosing not to disclose one's experiences
My mistakes and skeletons showing through
Acknowledging personal faults and hidden struggles
So just pick a side
Reiterating the need for a decision or commitment
Fucking make up your mind
Expressing frustration with indecision
Go cast your stones
Encouraging criticism or judgment
If I get hurt I blame myself
Accepting personal responsibility for potential harm
Is it enough if there's something else
Questioning the adequacy of current circumstances
Something else
Referring to an unspecified alternative
I'll go it alone
Choosing to face challenges alone
It's too late now
Expressing a sense of irreversible timing
I blame myself
Taking personal responsibility for outcomes
Is it enough if there's nothing else
Questioning the sufficiency of the current situation
Nothing else
Referring to an absence of alternatives
How do I get rid of this sadness
Expressing a desire to overcome lingering sadness
That continues to linger
Acknowledging engagement in a passion without complete attachment
I'm doing what I love but I'm not wrapped around its finger
Balancing love for an activity with independence
I thought going through the hardship
Expecting challenges to enhance life's quality
Would make the grass seem greener
Noticing a negative impact on someone's demeanor
But all I've seen it do is affect your demeanor
Go cast your stones
Inviting criticism or judgment
If I get hurt I blame myself
Taking responsibility for personal pain
Is it enough if there's something else
Questioning the adequacy of a situation
Something else
Referring to an unspecified alternative
I'll go it alone
Choosing to face challenges alone
It's too late now
Expressing a sense of irreversible timing
I blame myself
Taking personal responsibility for outcomes
Is it enough if there's nothing else
Questioning the sufficiency of the current situation
Is there nothing else
Referring to an absence of alternatives
Nothing
Expressing a void or lack of alternatives
