Lyrics

He can't avoid conflict

He is unable to avoid conflicts or confrontations.

He's lost 'cause he's incomplete

He feels lost because he is not whole or complete.

He's in between, somewhere in between, in between the sleepless shadows

He is caught in between situations, particularly in the sleepless shadows, implying a state of confusion.

Battling to break the love that's 'guaranteed to make you bleed thicker than blood'

He is fighting against a love that is destructive and more intense than family bonds ("thicker than blood").

He don't want it, but craves what he can't escape

He doesn't desire the destructive love but is drawn to it and unable to escape.

He's staring straight through his fate and now he's face to face

He is confronting his fate directly, acknowledging and facing the challenges ahead.

You want to fall down, well this could make your dreams come true

He suggests that falling down or facing challenges might fulfill one's dreams.

Because the devil was an angel too

A reference to the duality of good and evil, suggesting that even the devil was once an angel.


Look at me now, making the same mistakes I said I'd never make again-

Despite previous intentions, he is repeating mistakes.

But now I'm back in the same place

He finds himself back in a familiar and undesirable situation.

Look at me now, somebody stole my soul-

Someone has taken away his sense of self or identity ("soul").

I feel the breaks go and I'm spinning out of control

He experiences a loss of control, feeling the "breaks" go and spinning out of control.


Come step into a brave new world-

Inviting others to enter a new, challenging world that may not be worthwhile.

Not even worth it

Implying that the new world is not worth the trouble or risk.

Decent comes quick and now he's anything but perfect

Descent into imperfection happens quickly.

And still he worships that fundamental bullshit talk

Despite imperfection, he still adheres to misguided or false beliefs ("bullshit talk").

'The path you carve yourself is the path to walk'

Encouraging the idea that one must create their own path in life.

Now walk alone-

Now, he must walk the path alone, possibly due to the consequences of his actions.

Play it to the bone

Encouraging a full commitment, playing it "to the bone."

Don't make it right just because he got his sickness from that venomous bite

Highlighting that receiving harm doesn't make something right, possibly referencing a toxic relationship.

We want to fall down, well this could make our dreams come true

Similar to line 7, suggesting that challenges or falls might lead to fulfilling dreams.

Because the devil was an angel too

Reiterating the dual nature of good and evil, comparing the devil to an angel.


It's gonna be alright, everything's okay

Expressing reassurance that everything will be okay despite difficulties.

Mothers tears will fall and wash it all away

Emphasizing the cleansing or healing power of a mother's tears.


Suck, suck it- suck, suck it up

An exhortation to endure and overcome challenges ("suck it up").
