Yellow Teeth
Judgment Unveiled: Exploring the Depths of Yellow Teeth
Lyrics
Passing judgment with haste
Passing judgment hastily.
And laying to waste those who stand
Destroying those who oppose.
Before us and dishonor the faith.
Disrespecting the faith of others.
A dramatic opinion, but an opinion the same.
Expressing a strong, dramatic opinion.
An attempt now to make right,
Trying to make amends.
Not to enthrall or defame.
Avoiding praise or defamation.
An opinion piece, one after another.
Successive opinion pieces.
Laid fat from feast, one after another.
Benefiting from repeated feasting.
A man is nothing more than what others claim he is,
Identity shaped by others' opinions.
So speak clear and ill of me and so it will be.
Accepting the consequences of spoken opinions.
The grating sound of my voice.
The unpleasant sound of the speaker's voice.
The yellowing of my teeth.
The discoloration of the speaker's teeth.
Speak up.
Encouraging others to speak up.
Speak clear.
Emphasizing clear communication.
Speak ill of me.
Inviting negative opinions about the speaker.
I found myself awake last night.
Reflecting on a sleepless night.
May the players take their place,
Requesting others to play their roles.
Repeat their lines exactly to my public disgrace.
Enduring public disgrace.
The years exaggerate how horrible it was to be stricken silent
Exaggeration of the pain of being silenced.
With no explanation for the cause.
Lacking an explanation for silence.
I can't be the only one losing sleep over things
Regretting past actions or inactions.
I should or shouldn't have done.
Reflection on sleepless nights.
They are the rope around the neck.
Others' opinions as a burden.
They are the blade pressed to the wrist.
Feeling the pressure of criticism.
It might seem detrimental, but it's meaningless.
Acknowledging apparent harmlessness.
Left to my own devices, I am strange.
Embracing individuality without external influence.
I'm a liar—entertained.
Admitting to deception for entertainment.
I am no one to be reviled.
Rejecting being hated.
I am no one to be admired.
Rejecting admiration.
Jumping rope at the end of the street,
Visualizing a mundane, universal activity.
I am everyone, and everyone is me.
Claiming universality and connection with others.
