Dark Cloud
Breaking Chains: Finding Strength Amidst the Dark Cloud
Lyrics
Dark cloud in the afternoon
Feeling of darkness or negativity in the afternoon
Like a subtle noise in an empty room
Similar to a subtle disturbance in an empty space
Yeah you can't prove it but you know it's true
A belief in something unprovable but inherently true
We're not alone... no
A sense of not being alone in the experience
You can't find yourself when you’re looking for somebody else
Difficulty in self-discovery when seeking others
And I'd trade my heaven to take away your hell
Willingness to endure personal challenges for someone else's well-being
Even if it's just for one day
Desire for a temporary reprieve, even if brief
I'm tired of these voices inside of my head
Frustration with intrusive thoughts or influences
They wait like a coffin placed beside my tired bed
Symbolic presence of negativity or mortality near one's rest
I'm tired of these voices
Continued frustration with persistent inner voices
I want to be whole
Aspiration for completeness or unity
Yeah I want to break these chains and take back my control
Desire to break free from limitations and regain personal agency
Take back my self-control
Reclaiming control over one's own actions and decisions
I know something wrong
Recognition of something being amiss or problematic
Try to get through but I don't belong
Feeling out of place or disconnected
Don't know what to say so I hold my tongue
Difficulty expressing oneself due to uncertainty
I close my eyes till the monsters gone
Seeking solace by closing off from distressing thoughts
Scared to know the truth like a patient in a waiting room
Fear of confronting a difficult truth, akin to waiting for a diagnosis
And I'd trade my heaven to take away your hell
Willingness to endure personal challenges for another's well-being reiterated
I'm looking for a place to lay down, somewhere where we can't be found
Searching for a secluded place away from scrutiny
I'm tired of these voices inside of my head
Continued frustration with intrusive thoughts or influences
They wait like a coffin placed beside my tired bed
Symbolic presence of negativity or mortality near one's rest reiterated
I'm tired of these voices
Continued frustration with persistent inner voices reiterated
I want to be whole
Reiteration of the desire for completeness or unity
I want to break these chains and take back my control
Reiteration of the desire to break free from limitations
Take back my self-control
Reclaiming control over one's own actions and decisions reiterated
I made mistakes but I got back up again
Acknowledgment of past mistakes and the resilience to overcome them
I'm filled with hate... but I'm learning to love
Existence of conflicting emotions—hate transforming into a capacity to love
I made mistakes but I got back up again
Reiteration of acknowledging mistakes and the transformative power of love
I'm filled with hate... but I'm learning to love
Continued acknowledgment of conflicting emotions
I'm tired of these voices inside of my head
Persistent frustration with intrusive thoughts or influences
They wait like a coffin placed beside my tired bed
Symbolic presence of negativity or mortality near one's rest reiterated
I'm tired of these voices
Continued frustration with persistent inner voices reiterated
I want to be whole
Reiteration of the desire for completeness or unity
I want to break these chains and take back my control
Reiteration of the desire to break free from limitations
Take back my self-control
Reclaiming control over one's own actions and decisions reiterated
