Lyrics
Words pierce through the air
Expressing the impact of spoken words in the atmosphere.
They make you wear
Describing the imposition of societal expectations or judgments.
To get you in a straight jacket label with your face
Being confined by a label that confines you like a straight jacket, with your identity on display.
Turned to the wall
Suggesting isolation or turning away from the world.
This place penetrates
Highlighting the pervasive nature of the oppressive environment.
When everyone that ever tries
People who attempt to convince you that you're different face consequences.
To tell you that you're not the same
Observers witness your decline when you deviate from the expected norm.
Watches you fall
Observing the repercussions when you go against societal expectations.
You're pushing on the wall inside
Feeling internal pressure and resistance.
You're pushing outside to find the reasons
Struggling externally to understand the reasons for societal expectations.
You run from this place
Escaping from a place that imposes labels.
When they label you
Negative consequences of being labeled by society.
Pushing on the wall inside
Continuing to resist internal and external pressures.
Reasons to run from this place
Seeking reasons to escape from societal judgments.
When they label you
Reiteration of negative consequences of societal labeling.
Pushing on the wall inside
Continuing to resist internal and external pressures.
You're inside
Being trapped within societal expectations.
Thinking of everyone you ever knew
Reflecting on past relationships and experiences.
When they put you outside
Being excluded and placed outside societal norms.
In the separating wall
Referring to a metaphorical separating wall that isolates.
I can see you
Awareness of someone facing societal judgments.
Standing there waiting for the answer
Waiting for an explanation or resolution to the societal dilemma.
To the reason no one operates the way you do
Questioning why others don't operate in the same way.
Your point of view
Emphasizing individual perspective and uniqueness.
Every day that they can't see
Daily challenges of being unseen or misunderstood by others.
Afraid of what they might find
Fear of discovering something undesirable about oneself.
In the way of what they see
Obstacles preventing others from seeing the truth.
Afraid of what's inside of you
Fear of confronting one's inner self.
