Shade
Rising from Shadows: Pray for Sleep's Empowering Anthem
Lyrics
Kept me down for too long
Feeling oppressed for an extended period
Can't stand my reflection
Disliking one's own reflection, possibly due to self-perceived flaws
Only see your face passing by
Seeing the face of someone significant while passing by
Can't escape what I've done
Unable to avoid the consequences of past actions
My past will always haunt me
The haunting nature of past mistakes
I won't give up livin' and I won't let it own me
Determined not to surrender to past mistakes and their impact
You, can't escape my grasp
Asserting control over someone, possibly from the past
I own this heart, I am your past
Claiming ownership of emotional baggage and history
I, won't be put to rest
Resisting being forgotten or dismissed
If you win one day, I'll claim the rest
Refusing to be defeated completely
Not weak enough, let you consume me
Rejecting vulnerability to external influence
Strong enough to be break free
Having the strength to break free from negative influences
Sharpen my tongue, fighting for so long
Using words effectively in a prolonged struggle
Caught in the wake, the shade of a love song
Entangled in the aftermath, symbolized by the "shade" of a love song
You slipped away from my hands
Losing grip on someone important
In time I'll pull you back in
Anticipating a reunion despite the separation
It's easier to live in a lie
Choosing to live in a false reality for comfort
Rest in my arms, when the pain is too heavy
Offering solace when the emotional burden is overwhelming
Won't let you forget what you did to deserve me
Ensuring the person remembers the pain they caused
I'm, pressing thru the pain
Enduring pain and pushing forward
I'll burn the past, I'll take back my name
Overcoming and reclaiming one's identity
I'll, fight the war in my heart
Fighting internal battles and emotional conflicts
I'll gladly rest in pieces if it tears me apart
Willing to accept personal destruction for inner peace
Not weak enough, let you consume me
Rejecting external control and influence
Strong enough to be break free
Having the strength to break free from negative influences (repeated)
Sharpen my tongue, fighting for so long
Using words effectively in a prolonged struggle (repeated)
Caught in the wake, the shade of a love song
Entangled in the aftermath, symbolized by the "shade" of a love song (repeated)
The shade of a love song, the past is dead
Declaring the past as dead
Not weak enough, let you consume me
Rejecting external control and influence (repeated)
Strong enough to be break free
Having the strength to break free from negative influences (repeated)
Sharpen my tongue, fighting for so long
Using words effectively in a prolonged struggle (repeated)
Caught in the wake, the shade of a love song
Entangled in the aftermath, symbolized by the "shade" of a love song (repeated)
Not weak enough
Emphasizing personal strength and resilience
The past is dead
Affirming the finality of the past
Caught in the wake, the shade of a love song
Entangled in the aftermath, symbolized by the "shade" of a love song (repeated)
Not weak enough
Reiterating personal strength and resilience (repeated)
