Despot
Unveiling the Beauty Within Desolation
Lyrics
Waking in this state
Awakening in a certain state of mind
The world seems strange to me
Perceiving the world as unfamiliar or peculiar
How can something so beautiful
Questioning the coexistence of beauty and dread
Shine on something so dreadful
Expressing surprise that something beautiful can coexist with something dreadful
Realized this too late...
Realizing a consequence or truth too late
You sell them short for what they are
Criticizing underestimation of others
One day they'll show you who they are
Anticipating that true character will eventually be revealed
Leave it to us to tape our mouths
Choosing silence and restraint
The silence will add more to release
Believing silence holds more power than speech
'cause talking has become a taboo
Declaring that talking has become socially forbidden
If only they knew the power that they had
Reflecting on the unrealized potential influence
I wake up and find myself unstable
Experiencing emotional instability upon waking
I'm hoping that this world is just a fable
Hoping for a world that exists only in stories
How can something so beautiful
Repeating the contrast of beauty and dread
Shine on something so dreadful
Reiterating the juxtaposition of beauty and dread
The hunger necessitates the slaves
Describing a hunger that enslaves individuals
To fasten and redirect their waves
Highlighting the need for redirecting societal influences
One day the silence will be torn
Foretelling a future where silence is broken
Despoil these social straps we've worn
Calling for the rejection of social constraints
I wake up and find myself unstable
Repeating the theme of emotional instability upon waking
I'm hoping that this world is just a fable
Reiterating the desire for an idealized world
If only they knew the power that they had
Reflecting on the untapped power within
You sell them short
Reiterating the criticism of underestimating others
You sell them short
Repeating the criticism of underestimating others
Realized this too late to fight it
Realizing belatedly that resistance is futile
Realized it's too late to fight it
Acknowledging the inevitability of the situation
Realized it's too late...
Reiterating the realization of being too late
