Lyrics

Speak no evil, and let it infect your mind

Advises to avoid acknowledging evil to prevent its influence on the mind.

The braveheart’s crown has got a hole!

The symbol of courage or bravery has a flaw or vulnerability.

Look at all the songs, and chivalry you’ve built around your life

Reflects on the constructed image of honor and gallantry in one's life.

Now envision the calamity to have it redefined…

Imagines a catastrophic event that would redefine the situation.

Come what may, if you see no sign of truth!

Regardless of circumstances, persist in seeking the truth.

Hanging on shadow, shadow

Clutching onto obscurity or darkness.

And with a grip around the throne

Having control or possession over power.

What is left to do if candor’s lost after all?

What actions remain when honesty or sincerity is lost.

So come and sway with me (oh)

Invitation to join and move together emotionally.

‘Fore our heads are gone tomorrow

Before facing imminent danger or loss.

Jaded as you are

Feeling weary and disillusioned.

There is a sickening reckoning beckoning

There's an impending and nauseating judgment approaching.

They’re venom free, these words I speak

The words spoken are not harmful or malicious.

This changes everything

This situation drastically alters everything.

There’s something in your heart

There's a significant feeling or emotion within.

Or what’s left of it - this is not a guilt trip

Reference to emotional damage but not intending to guilt-trip.

It’s taking over, can’t you see?

An overpowering force or emotion taking control.

The last time in your life, why aren’t you listening?

Questioning why there's a lack of attention or response during a critical moment.

Hanging on shadow, shadow

Clutching onto obscurity or darkness (repeated line).

And with a grip around the throne

Having control or possession over power (repeated line).

What is left to do if candor’s lost after all?

What actions remain if honesty or sincerity is lost (repeated line).

So come and sway with me (oh)

Invitation to join and move together emotionally (repeated line).

‘Fore our heads are gone tomorrow

Before facing imminent danger or loss (repeated line).

Hanging on trial

In a state of judgment or evaluation.

And with it's grip around my throat

A sense of being restrained or suffocated by something.

What is left for me if jester’s not wanted anymore

Feeling unwanted or disregarded when trying to entertain or amuse.

Well I said my piece

Expressed one's thoughts or opinions.

I hope it leaves you headless

Hoping that the expressed thoughts leave the listener stunned or speechless.
